HPV vaccine study finds zero cases of cervical cancer among women vaccinated before age 14 Annalisa Merelli By Annalisa Merelli Jan. 25, 2024 https://www.statnews.com/2024/01/25/hpv-vaccine-prevent-cervical-cancer-cervarix-gardasil-study/?utm_campaign=morning_rounds&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz--evnx9P4h7k5IPVk_PffX9LYZ1wOYsJeUMVy3zivNT0LhZ1m9qWDWTzQwL-qEblZfQ0yFwdi8QyBUJz159cdQ21OzazQ&_hsmi=308523819&utm_content=308523819&utm_source=hs_email Human papillomavirus vaccines work — for women and men. A large dataset released yesterday ahead of the American Society of Clinical Oncology’s annual meeting showed that in a cohort of 1.7 million patients, vaccinated men had 3.4 cases of HPV-caused cancer per 100,000 patients, compared to 7.5 cases per 100,000 in unvaccinated men. For vaccinated female patients, the incidence was 11.5 per 100,000 patients, compared to 15.8 per 100,000 unvaccinated women. Yet rates of HPV vaccination in men remain very low. Vaccination in male adolescents and young adults in the U.S. improved from 7.8% to 36.4% between 2011 and 2020. But that means a majority of men are still missing out on a lifesaving vaccine, reports my colleague Matt Herper — and so are a majority of women. Though female vaccination rates went up from 37.7% to 49.4% in the same period, they are still far below the 90% goal established by the WHO. New data show the HPV vaccine prevents cancer in men, too. Why don’t more people get it?
