NCT02009800

Brief Summary

This randomised clinical trial aims to determine whether an immunization schedule comprising two doses of Gardasil administered six months apart is non-inferior to a schedule comprising three doses administered at 0, 6 and 60 months for the prevention of HPV-16 and HPV-18 infections that persist for at least six months, up to ten years after the initial vaccination. The study hypothesis is that the two-dose schedule would offer similar protection as that of a three-dose schedule against persistent HPV-16/18 infections.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of persistent HPV-16/18 infections

    5 years after recruitment visite

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Geometric mean titres of antibodies and seropositivity for HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18

    5 years after recruitment visit

Study Arms (2)

2 dose of quadrivalent HPV vaccine

NO INTERVENTION

The participants who have already received 2 doses of the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (0, 6 months schedule) 5 years before recruitment will not receive an additional dose.

3 doses of quadrivalent HPV vaccine

EXPERIMENTAL

The participants will receive a 3rd dose of quadrivalent HPV vaccine at recruitment visit, which is 5 years after having received two doses of vaccine given 6 months apart in grade 4 (0, 6, 60 months Schedule)

Biological: Quadrivalent HPV vaccine

Interventions

One dose of Gardasil administered in the intervention group

Also known as: Gardasil
3 doses of quadrivalent HPV vaccine
