Example application of HPV-FRAME guidelines to Lin et al., 2016 [50].

Inputs Reported? (Y/N) Report by Age? (Y/N) Comments
MSM-specific disease burden Y Y Incidence rates by age derived from registries combined with population attributable fractions and relative risks
HIV prevalence Y Y Split by diagnosed and undiagnosed
Time from HPV infection to cancer Y N Natural history model for anal cancer giving rate of progression to cancer precursors and cancer. Proportionate outcomes for other cancers
Vaccine coverage Y Y Age bands 16–25, 16–30, 16–35, 16-40y, 50% among GUM attenders (16.7% of all MSM)
Prior exposure Y Y (implicitly) Estimated by transmission-dynamic model
Reported? (Y/N) Report by Age (Y/N) Report as calibration or validation target? (Y/N) Comments
Reduction in disease incidence over time Y Y Y (provided post-vaccine data are available) Separate projections of annual diagnoses of anogenital warts and cancers over time
Impact assessment by disease outcome Y N N Reported by age for anal cancer and warts; reported as totals for other cancers. Cost-effectiveness analyses only provided for composite outcome measures
