3. Mitigation of Potential for
Conflict of Interest
• Although I have been involved with HPV
vaccine companies and a new screening
modality, performing research and speaking
engagements I will be using evidence based
medicine in this presentation.
4. Cervical Cancer Incidence 2012
Every minute a woman is diagnosed with cervical cancer.1
New cases per year: ~ 530,000
7. HPV causes cervical cancer
• Undisputed epidemiological evidence
• RR higher than for cigarettes & lung cancer1,2
• Lifetime risk of infection ~ 80%3–5
• > 70% of HPV types are oncogenic6,7
• Vast majority of infections are transient, clearance
12–18 months6
• ~ 10% infections persist beyond 2 years8
• Persistent infection is a necessary cause of
pre-cancer or cancer9,10
• Development of cancer from persistent HPV infection
takes 10–20 years, although rarely, it may take
only 1–2 years9

16. CIN2 and CIN3 as disease endpoints
for studies
• There is substantial heterogeneity in the microscopic diagnosis and
biologic meaning of CIN 2 lesions in particular.1
• Some non-oncogenic HPV infections are capable of producing lesions
diagnosed as CIN 2.1
• CIN-3 can be reliably distinguished from recently acquired HPV
infection and it is a good indicator of subsequent cancer risk.2
• CIN3 is a more reproducible and stringent diagnostic endpoint than
CIN2 and frequently progresses to ICC.3,4,5
• The recent “LAST” publication from the ASCCP and CAP suggested
a HSIL/ LSIL terminology with breakdown of HSIL into CIN2, CIN3 to
fit with current clinical practice 6

24. Immunogenicity of a novel 9-valent HPV
vaccine in 16-26 year old women
V503-001 Primary immunogenicity findings:
• Anti-HPV 6/11/16/18 response were non-
inferior to those generated by the qHPV
vaccine.
• These results support the bridging of efficacy
finding with qHPV to 9vHPV vaccine
