Abstract
A 9-valent human papillomavirus (9vHPV) vaccine has been developedto prevent infections and diseases related to HPV 6/11/16/18 (as per the licensed quadrivalent HPV [qHPV] vaccine), as well as 5additional oncogenic HPV types (HPV 31/33/45/52/58). Compared with the qHPV vaccine, the 9vHPV vaccine potentially increases the coverage of protection from 70% to 90% of cervical cancers. We compared the immunogenicity and safety of the 9vHPV vaccine vs. the qHPV vaccine in 9-15-year-old girls.
