Munoz N et al. - Although the peak incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection occurs in most populations within 5—10 years of first sexual experience, all women remain at risk for acquisition of HPV infections. The authors tested the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of the quadrivalent HPV (types 6, 11, 16, 18) L1 virus-like-particle vaccine in women aged 24—45 years. The quadrivalent HPV vaccine is efficacious in women aged 24—45 years not infected with the relevant HPV types at enrolment.
