Effect of EGCG, Folic Acid, Vitamin B12 and Hyaluronic Acid on HPV DNA Integration
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), Folic Acid (FA), Vitamin B12 (B12), and Hyaluronic Acid (HA): Participants will self-administer one oral tablet of the dietary supplement Pervistop daily
Study summary
This interventional, single-center, open-label randomized clinical study evaluates the efficacy of an oral dietary supplement (Pervistop®) in women with persistent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. The supplement is a combination of four natural molecules: Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), folic acid (FA), vitamin B12 (B12), and hyaluronic acid (HA).The primary objective is to describe the effect of this association on HPV DNA integration into the host genome by measuring the clearance rate of viral oncoproteins E6 and E7. A total of 42 women aged 25 or older with persistent HPV infection and low-grade cervical lesions will be randomized 1:1 into two groups. The treated group will receive one tablet of Pervistop® daily for six months, while the control group will follow standard clinical practice. The study aims to determine if this nutritional intervention can counteract viral persistence.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Rate of clearance of viral oncoproteins E6 and E7 — 6 months
The percentage of participants showing a negative result for viral E6/E7 mRNA, which are key indicators of HPV DNA integration into the host genome. Analysis will be performed using the Aptima HPV assay, a transcription-mediated amplification (TMA) technique. A negative test result indicates viral clearance or loss of viral integration.
