HPV16/18 vaccine efficacy against prevalent cervical, anal, and oral HPV16/18 DNA four years after vaccination in the “Naïve” cohort*,†
| Study population | Arm | Women or sites | No. events | HPV16/18 prevalence, % | Efficacy (95% CI), % |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cervical, anal, or oral HPV16/18 | HPV vaccine | 970 | 15 | 1.5 | 83.5 (72.1 to 90.8) |
| Multisite woman level‡ | Control | 949 | 89 | 9.4 | |
| Cervical HPV16/18 | HPV vaccine | 970 | 8 | 0.8 | 89.4 (79.0 to 95.2) |
| Control | 949 | 74 | 7.8 | ||
| Anal HPV16/18 | HPV vaccine | 970 | 7 | 0.7 | 85.1 (68.4 to 93.8) |
| Control | 949 | 46 | 4.8 | ||
| Cervical, anal, oral HPV16/18 | HPV vaccine | 2910 | 15 | 0.5 | 88.2 (79.6 to 93.1) |
| Multisite infection level§ | Control | 2847 | 124 | 4.4 | |
| HPV16/18 at two or three sites | HPV vaccine | 970 | 0 | 0.0 | 100.0 (91.0 to 100.0) |
| Control | 949 | 34 | 3.6 |
* The naïve cohort excluded those who were human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 seropositive at baseline or high-risk cervical HPV DNA+ at baseline or had loop electrosurgical excision procedure during the vaccination phase. CI = confidence interval; HPV = human papillomavirus. † The vaccine efficacy for oral HPV16/18 alone was excluded given low number of events. These results are presented in Supplementary Table 2 (available online).
‡ A woman-level event is defined as a woman who is positive for cervical, anal, and/or oral HPV DNA at the four-year visit.§ An infection-level event is defined as a woman’s anatomical site having HPV16/18 DNA (women contribute three times for each anatomic site); the vaccine efficacies for this analysis utilized generalized estimating equations to adjust for the correlation within an individual.
