Objectives: To quantify the benefit-risk (BR) balance of the quadrivalent human papillomavirus (qHPV) vaccine for use in males, including anal cancer prevention, by using the multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA).
Methods: Value tree and an effect table were compiled using relevant qHPV vaccine efficacy/safety data. An expert panel validated the final model inputs.
Results: On a scale of 0-100, the MCDA qHPV vaccine score (66) was superior to the no vaccination score (46), indicating a more favorable BR balance for the qHPV vaccine. Significant changes in weight of individual outcomes were needed to change BR balance in sensitivity analyses. The qHPV vaccine maintained a better BR profile in all alternative models.
Conclusions: MCDA can be used to transparently evaluate BR balance of vaccines. The qHPV vaccine had a favorable BR balance in males. Including anal cancer as a new indication further improves the BR profile of the qHPV vaccine.

Abstract: Routine use of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines is recommended in adolescents under 15 years of age worldwide. Still, effective programs remain suboptimal for several factors, making the WHO strategy to eradicate cervical cancer public health with an uncertain future.
Objective: To review the literature on the effectiveness, long-term protection, and safety of HPV vaccination programs and vaccination as adjuvant management.

In Norway, single-cohort vaccination with quadrivalent human papillomavirus (qHPV) vaccine targeting 12-year-old girls took place in 2009-2016. In 2020, the oldest vaccinated cohort was 23 years old and had approached the age where risk of being diagnosed with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) increases rapidly. The aim of this cohort study was to assess direct qHPV vaccine effectiveness (VE) against CIN2+ among Norwegian women aged 16-30 years in 2007-2020.

Objectives: Prophylactic vaccines against high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) hold promise to prevent the development of higher grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN 2+) and cervical cancer (CC) that develop due to HR-HPV genotypes that are included, in HPV vaccines, but women will continue to develop CIN 2+ and CC due to HR-HPV genotypes that are not included in the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (qHPV) and 9-valent HPV vaccine (9VHPV). Thus, the current vaccines are likely to decrease but not entirely prevent the development of CIN 2+ or CC. The purpose of the study was to determine the prevalence and determinants of CIN 2+ that develop due to HR-HPVs not included in vaccines.

Background: In 2009, Norway initiated routine quadrivalent HPV (qHPV) vaccination for girls at 12-13 years of age to protect against virus types causing cervical cancer, HPV16/18, and HPV6/11 which cause anogenital warts (AGW). We wanted to investigate qHPV vaccine effectiveness (VE) against AGW in females before and after first AGW episode and to assess the impact of female vaccination in males.
Materials And Methods: QHPV vaccination and AGW episodes were collected for the time period 2006-2016 for birth cohorts 1975-2003.
Background: This first in human study was designed as an open label clinical trial to assess safety and tolerability of Serum Institute of India Pvt. Ltd. (SIIPL) quadrivalent HPV (qHPV) vaccine.
