Effect of age at initiation of the human papillomavirus vaccine on the association between race/ethnicity and completion of the vaccine series
CONCLUSION: Strong recommendations to ensure patients are UTD on the HPV vaccine series are essential to improving UTD among all adolescents and follow-up should occur when administering other vaccines to reduce missed opportunities.PMID:38519345 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.03.050 (Source: Vaccine)

Advancing the National Immunization Program in an era of achieving universal vaccine coverage in China and beyond
CONCLUSION: The articles emphasize the need for government leadership, strategic policymaking, and public awareness to enhance vaccine coverage and equity. The VaxLab will continue strengthening China's NIP by focusing on vaccine financing, emphasizing diversity, equity, and inclusion, and improving maternal vaccination coverage. Research will extend to Southeast Asian and Western Pacific regions, especially in middle-income countries facing challenges in vaccine financing and delivery. The collective efforts outlined in this collection show a commitment to evolving and adapting immunization strategies to meet global healt...

Safety and immunogenicity of Innovax bivalent human papillomavirus vaccine in girls 9-14  years of age: Interim analysis from a phase 3 clinical trial
CONCLUSIONS: Cecolin in a 0, 6-month schedule elicits robust immunogenicity. Non-inferiority to Gardasil was demonstrated one month after a 0, 6-month schedule. Immunogenicity following one dose was comparable to Gardasil up to six months. Both vaccines were safe and well tolerated (ClinicalTrials.gov No. 04508309).PMID:38431444 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.02.077 (Source: Vaccine)

Parental willingness to accept and pay human papillomavirus vaccine for boys aged 9-14 in a metropolis area of China: Evidence for developing a vaccination strategy
CONCLUSION: Parents have high WTA and WTP HPV vaccine for boys aged 9-14 in Shanghai, which may provide evidence for preparing HPV vaccination strategy. Acceptance of HPV vaccines and roll-out in boys could be enhanced through the availability of government subsidy mechanism and domestic HPV vaccines.PMID:38423812 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.02.076 (Source: Vaccine)

Vaccination Effectiveness against Human Papillomavirus in Kazakhstan
CONCLUSION: The effectiveness of vaccination in preventing cervical cancer was not observed in patients who were vaccinated after 18 years of age, while most patients in the control group were vaccinated in their teens. The practical significance of the research is not only to further study the problem of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in Kazakhstan but also to popularize HPV immunization to prevent cervical cancer (CC).PMID:38415556 | DOI:10.31557/APJCP.2024.25.2.681 (Source: Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention)
