E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
1.In a population who are seronegative to the relevant human papilloma virus (HPV) type at Day 1, to demonstrate that administration of a 2-dose regimen of 9-valent human papilloma virus vaccine (9vHPV) vaccine in boys and girls 9 to 14 years of age induces noninferior Competitive Luminex Immunoassay (cLIA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) of antibodies to each of the 9vHPV vaccine types compared with young women 16 to 26 years of age receiving a 3-dose regimen of the same vaccine at Day1, Month 2, and Month 6. 2.In 10-to 15-year old boys and girls who received a single dose of 9vHPV vaccine at least 1 year prior to enrollment, to characterize the immune response to a second dose of 9vHPV vaccine (as measured by cLIA GMTs of antibodies to each of the 9vHPV vaccine types) at 4 weeks post dose 2 taking into account the time interval between administration of doses 1 and 2. 3.To evaluate the safety of administering the 9vHPV vaccine based on the dosing regimens investigated in this study. |
