Summary
This trial aims to compare two and three doses of the HPV vaccine in adult women. Blood samples will be taken over 12 months. All 2-dose participants will get a 3rd dose.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for females aged 27-45 who haven't had the HPV vaccine, use reliable birth control, and can consent. They must have a way to pay for the vaccine, speak English or Spanish, and have phone access. Pregnant women or those planning pregnancy soon, with suppressed immune systems or certain medical conditions are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study compares two schedules of the HPV vaccine: one group will receive two doses at different times while another gets three doses at standard intervals. The goal is to see if fewer doses still provide strong immunity against HPV over a year.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects from the HPV vaccine include pain at injection site, swelling, redness, headaches, nausea, fever or dizziness. Severe allergic reactions are rare but may occur.
