Immunogenicity and Safety of Quadrivalent HPV Vaccine in Healthy Chinese Female Subjects Aged 9 to 19 Years

This is a singel-center study (protocol 4-HPV-3002) in which women are planned to receive q-HPV vaccine. Study participation will last approximately 60 months and involves a total of nine or eleven scheduled visits.

This study will also assess whether the immunogenicity of the q-HPV vaccine given 2-dose schedule in 9-14 year old girls is noninferior to that in young women, aged 20-26, receiving 3 doses, and 3 doses in 9-19 year old girls is noninferior to that in young women receiving 3 doses, while assessing the safety of this vaccine.
