Abstract
We estimated the prevalence and incidence of 14 human papillomavirus (HPV) types (6/11/16/18/31/33/35/39/45/51/52/56/58/59) in cervicovaginal swabs, and the attribution of these HPV types in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), using predefined algorithms that adjusted for multiple-type infected lesions. A total of 10,656 women ages 15 to 26 years and 1,858 women ages 24 to 45 years were enrolled in the placebo arms of one of three clinical trials of a quadrivalent HPV vaccine. We estimated the cumulative incidence of persistent infection and the proportion of CIN/AIS attributable to individual carcinogenic HPV genotypes, as well as the proportion of CIN/AIS lesions potentially preventable by a prophylactic 9-valent HPV6/11/16/18/31/33/45/52/58 vaccine. The cumulative incidence of persistent infection with ≥1 of the seven high-risk types included in the 9-valent vaccine was 29%, 12%, and 6% for women ages 15 to 26, 24 to 34, and 35 to 45 years, respectively. A total of 2,507 lesions were diagnosed as CIN or AIS by an expert pathology panel. After adjusting for multiple-type infected lesions, among women ages 15 to 45 years, these seven high-risk types were attributed to 43% to 55% of CIN1, 70% to 78% of CIN2, 85% to 91% of CIN3, and 95% to 100% of AIS lesions, respectively. The other tested types (HPV35/39/51/56/59) were attributed to 23% to 30% of CIN1, 7% to 14% of CIN2, 3% to 4% of CIN3, and 0% of AIS lesions, respectively. Approximately 85% or more of CIN3/AIS, >70% CIN2, and approximately 50% of CIN1 lesions worldwide are attributed to HPV6/11/16/18/31/33/45/52/58. If 9-valent HPV vaccination programs are effectively implemented, the majority of CIN2 and CIN3 lesions worldwide could be prevented, in addition to approximately one-half of CIN1.
Highlights
We evaluated the attribution of the 14 human papillomavirus (HPV) types, which were tested for in the clinical trials (HPV6/11/16/ 18/31/33/35/39/45/51/52/56/58/59), the high-risk types that are present in a quadrivalent HPV6/11/16/18 L1 virus–like particle (qHPV) vaccine (HPV16/18), as well as those which are not present in any HPV vaccine (HPV35/39/51/56/59)
Attribution of 12 High-Risk HPV Types to Cervical Disease following histologic endpoints were included in the analyses reported here: cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 1 to 3, and/or adenocarcinoma in-situ (AIS)
For the HPV types contained in the 9-valent HPV (9vHPV) vaccine, the overall prevalence was 25%, 20%, and 13% in these 3 age groups

Prevention of HPV6/11-related genital warts, and HPV16/18-related cervical cancers and precancers. It was subsequently approved in 2008 for preventing vulvar and vaginal cancers and precancers [4]. The indication was further expanded to males ages 9 to 26 years for the prevention of genital warts and to males and females ages 9 to 26 years for the prevention of anal cancers and precancers attributed to HPV6/11/16/18 [5, 6]. The qHPV vaccine has been shown to be safe and highly efficacious in preventing anogenital infection and neoplasia in women ages 24 to 45 years [7]. We estimated the prevalence and incidence of 14 human papillomavirus (HPV) types (6/11/ 16/18/31/33/35/39/45/51/52/56/58/59) in cervicovaginal swabs, and the attribution of these HPV types in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), using predefined algorithms that adjusted for multiple-type infected lesions
