Brief Summary
The investigators propose a randomized, open label trial of the immunogenicity of HPV vaccine among males 18-24 years old, comparing an on-time administration of the third dose with delayed administration of the third dose. All participants would receive the first and second doses according to schedule. They would be randomized to either Dose 3 at 6 months or Dose 3 at 12 months. Hypothesis: The Geometric mean titers in the 12 month test group (T) are non-inferior to the usual timing control group (C): H0: δ ≤ -δ0 versus H1: δ \> -δ0 where δ = log (GMTT )- log (GMTC) and δ0 is the pre-specified non-inferiority margin

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Immunogenicity After Dose 3
Geometric mean titer (GMT) and 95% confidence intervals around titer 1 month after dose 3 in per protocol population, comparing the two groups.
1 month after dose 3 (e.g., month 7 if third dose at 6months or month 13 if third dose at 12 months)
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Compliance With 3rd Dose
at 3rd dose (i.e., at month 6 or month 12, depending on arm)
Safety Profile
1 week after vaccination
Study Arms (2)
12 months
EXPERIMENTALAdministration of 3rd dose at 12 months quadrivalent human papillomavirus vaccine
6 month
ACTIVE COMPARATORAdministration of 3rd dose at 6 months quadrivalent human papillomavirus vaccine
Interventions
0.5 mL of quadrivalent HPV vaccine at enrollment, 2 months, and 12 months

Limitations and Caveats
Drop-out rates higher in the Alternate group; however, sample size was met for all HPV types. The effect of the Alternate dosing schedule on long-term clinical outcomes is unknown. One syncopal episode related to phlebotomy prior to vaccination.
