Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Geometric Mean Titers of Anti-Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 (9vHPV)	Up approximately 4 weeks post vaccination with 9vHPV Dose 2	Antibodies to HPV types 6/11/16/18/31/33/45/52/58 were measured using a competitive Luminex immunoassay (cLIA). Per protocol, antibody titers were expressed as milli Merck units/milliliter (mMU/mL). Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) are reported for both arms for all randomized participants included in the per-protocol immunogenicity (PPI) population. The PPI population is HPV-type specific.
Geometric Mean Concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein-Specific Binding Antibodies	Up approximately 4 weeks post vaccination with mRNA-1273 Dose 2	The geometric mean concentration (GMC) of serum-derived antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein was determined using an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assay. GMCs are reported for both arms for all randomized participants included in the mRNA-1273 per-protocol (mRNA-1273-PP) population.
Percentage of Participants With ≥1 Solicited Injection-site Adverse Event (AE)	Up to approximately Day 7 post vaccination with any study vaccine	An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. Solicited AEs are predefined local AEs (at the injection site) for which the participant was specifically questioned, and noted by the participant in their vaccine report card (VRC). Per protocol, the percentage of participants with ≥1 solicited injection site AE has been reported separately based on injection site for participants in the Concomitant Group (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm; Day 1 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 6 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm) and Non-Concomitant Group (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 2 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 8 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm). Per protocol, reporting for Concomitant Group Day 1 Dose 1 separated by injection site is specific to this outcome only and does not apply to other safety outcomes.
Percentage of Participants With ≥1 Solicited Systemic AE	Up to approximately Day 7 post vaccination with any study vaccine	An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. Solicited AEs are predefined systemic events for which the participant is specifically questioned, and which are noted by the participant in their VRC. Per protocol the percentage of participants who experienced ≥1 solicited systemic (affecting the whole body) AE are reported here for participants in the Concomitant (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm + 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 6 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm) and Non-Concomitant Groups (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 2 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 8 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm). Per protocol, reporting is based on time of injection; as 9vHPV Dose 1 AND mRNA-1273 Dose 1 were both given on Day 1 of the Concomitant Group they have been combined below.
Percentage of Participants With ≥1 Serious Adverse Event (SAE)	Up to approximately Day 28 post vaccination with any study vaccine	A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as one that results in death, is life threatening, or requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or other important medical event that may require medical intervention. Per protocol the percentage of participants who experienced ≥1 SAE are reported here for participants in the Concomitant (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm + 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 6 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm) and Non-Concomitant Groups (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 2 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 8 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm). Per protocol, reporting is based on time of injection; as 9vHPV Dose 1 AND mRNA-1273 Dose 1 were both given on Day 1 of the Concomitant Group they have been combined below.
Percentage of Participants With ≥1 Vaccine-Related SAE	Up to approximately 9 Months	A SAE was defined as one that results in death, is life threatening, or requires hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent/significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or other important medical event that may require medical intervention. An SAE judged by the investigator to be related to the study vaccine is a vaccine-related SAE. Per protocol the percentage of participants who experienced ≥1 vaccine-related SAE are reported here for participants in Concomitant (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm + 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 6 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm) and Non-Concomitant Groups (Day 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 1 right arm; Month 1 mRNA-1273 Dose 2 right arm; Month 2 9vHPV Dose 1 left arm; Month 8 9vHPV Dose 2 left arm). Per protocol, reporting is based on time of injection; as 9vHPV Dose 1 AND mRNA-1273 Dose 1 were both given on Day 1 of the Concomitant Group they have been combined below.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Percentage of Participants Who Seroconvert to Each of the 9vHPV Vaccine Types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52 and 58 Following Administration of a 2-Dose Regimen of 9vHPV Vaccine	Up to approximately 4 weeks post vaccination with 9vHPV Dose 2	Serum-derived antibodies to HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 were measured with a competitive luminex immunoassay (cLIA). Seroconversion is defined as changing from cLIA anti-HPV seronegative serum antibodies for 9vHPV types at pre-vaccination to cLIA anti-HPV seropositive at 4 weeks post vaccination with 9vHPV Dose 2. A participant with anti-HPV cLIA titer at or above the serostatus cutoff values of the cLIA for a given HPV type is considered seropositive for that HPV type. The serostatus cutoffs (milli Merck units/milliliter (mMU/mL) for HPV types were as follows: HPV Type 6: ≥34, HPV Type 11: ≥25; HPV Type 16: ≥32, HPV Type 18: ≥26, HPV Type 31: ≥15, HPV Type 33: ≥10, HPV Type 45: ≥10, HPV Type 52: ≥14, and HPV Type 58: ≥10. Percentage of participants who seroconverted are reported for both arms for all randomized participants included in the PPI population. The PPI population is HPV-type specific.
Percentage of Participants Who Experience Seroresponse Following Administration of a 2-Dose Regimen of mRNA-1273 Vaccine	Up to approximately 4 weeks post vaccination with mRNA-1273 Dose 2	Serum-derived antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein was determined using an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assay. Seroresponse is defined as a ≥4-fold rise in SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-specific binding antibody concentration from baseline to 4 weeks post vaccination with mRNA-1273 Dose 2. Percentage of participants who experience seroresponse are reported for both arms for all randomized participants included in the mRNA-1273-PP population.
