Brief Summary

The primary purpose of the study is to determine if GARDASIL™ (V501) is able to prevent cervical cancer.

Detailed Description

In the 4-year Base Study (V501-015) (NCT00092534), participants were randomized in a 1:1 order to receive 3 doses of GARDASIL™ or matching placebo at Day 1, Month 2, and Month 6 and were assessed for efficacy, immunogenicity, and safety.

In the Base Study Extension (EXT) \[V501-015-10\], participants who received placebo or only 1 dose of GARDASIL™ in the Base Study, were given 3 doses of open-label GARDASIL™ at EXT Day 1, EXT Month 2, and EXT Month 6, and were followed to EXT Month 7. Participants who who received 2 doses of GARDASIL™ in the Base Study were given 1 dose of GARDASIL™ at EXT Day 1 and were followed for 15 days (day of vaccination plus 14 days).

In the 10-year Base Study Long-Term Follow-Up (LTFU) \[V501-015-21\] the effectiveness, immunogenicity and safety of GARDASIL™ was assessed during a period of 10 years following completion of the Base Study (V501-015) \[14 years after the first dose of GARDASIL™\] and, for some measures, the Base Study EXT (V501-015-10) \[10 years after the first dose of GARDASIL™\]. Participants from Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden who participated in the Base Study were eligible to enroll in the LTFU. Effectiveness and safety was assessed by registry-based follow-up, and immunogenicity was assessed by serological testing at approximately Year 5 and Year 10 of the V501-015-21 LTFU.

An 8-year extension was added to the LTFU (V501-015-22\] to continue the evaluation of the long-term effectiveness and immunogenicity of GARDASIL™. Effectiveness and safety will be assessed by registry-based follow-up, and immunogenicity will be assessed by serological testing at approximately Year 4 and Year 8 of the extension of the LTFU.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of the Composite Endpoint of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18-related Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) 2 or Worse in the Base StudyUp to 4 years

This measure is defined to have occurred when, on a single cervical biopsy, endocervical curettage (ECC), loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), or conization specimen, there was HPV Vaccine consensus diagnosis of CIN 2 or worse up to 4 years after the first vaccination. For this measure, CIN 2 or worse includes CIN 2, CIN 3, adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) or cervical cancer related to HPV 16 or 18.

Incidence of the Composite Endpoint of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18-related Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) 2 or Worse in the Long-term Follow-up (LTFU) StudyUp to 14 years since Vaccine Dose 1

This measure is defined to have occurred when, on a single cervical biopsy, endocervical curettage (ECC), loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), or conization specimen, there was HPV Vaccine Nordic pathology panel (NPP) consensus diagnosis of CIN 2 or worse up to 14 years after the first vaccination. For this measure, CIN 2 or worse includes CIN 2, CIN 3, AIS or cervical cancer related to HPV 16 or 18. Only participants who received qHPV vaccine during the Base Study vaccination period and consented for inclusion in the LTFU are included. Because the objective was to demonstrate qHPV vaccine prophylactic efficacy at 14 years, Cohort 2 was not included in the analysis.

Incidence of the Composite Endpoint of HPV16/18-related CIN 2 or Worse in the Long-term Follow-up (LTFU) Studyup to 22 years post Vaccination Dose 1

This measure is defined to have occurred when, on a single cervical biopsy, ECC, LEEP, or conization specimen, there was HPV Vaccine NPP consensus diagnosis of CIN 2 or worse up to 22 years after the first vaccination. For this measure, CIN 2 or worse includes CIN 2, CIN 3, AIS or cervical cancer related to HPV 16 or 18. Only participants who received qHPV vaccine during the Base Study vaccination period and consented for inclusion in the LTFU will be included.
