Antiva Biosciences Reports Positive Results from ABI-2280 Trial for Cervical HPV Treatment
Antiva Biosciences has announced promising results from its Phase 1b/2 clinical trial of ABI-2280, a novel topical therapeutic for treating persistent high-risk cervical human papillomavirus (hrHPV) infections. The trial, presented at the Society of Gynecologic Oncology Annual Meeting, involved 139 women aged 25 to 55 with documented hrHPV infections. The study achieved its primary and secondary endpoints, showing statistically significant improvements in hrHPV negativity at weeks 12 and 24 compared to placebo. Notably, 78% of patients with the HPV16 genotype achieved negativity at week 12, compared to 0% in the placebo group. The treatment was well tolerated, with mild to moderate adverse events localized to the treatment area.
