Oral human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence in youth and cervical HPV prevalence in women attending a youth clinic in Sweden, a follow up-study 2013–2014 after gradual introduction of public HPV vaccination

Abstract: During 2009-2011, we reported that the oral and cervical prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) was high by international standards at 9.3% and 74%, respectively, in youth aged 15-23 years attending a youth clinic in Stockholm. After gradual introduction of public HPV vaccination during 2007-2012, between 2013 and 2014, when 73% of the women were HPV-vaccinated, but not necessarily before their sexual debut, oral HPV prevalence had dropped to 1.4% as compared with 9.3% in 2009-2011 (p < 0.00001). Cervical HP… Show more

“…In Japan, the decreasing average age at starting sexual activities may have increased the HPV infection rate in young people [48, 49]. The most common high-risk type of HPV infection seen in the oral cavity and cervix of sexually active young people is HPV16 [9, 12, 13, 27, 47]. Furthermore, HPV42 is a common low-risk HPV type seen in those locations in young females [9, 27], while HPV18 is commonly found in the cervix but not the oral cavity in young subjects [9, 12, 13, 27].…”

Most HPV types commonly detected in the cervix are also found in the oral cavity, suggesting that concomitant HPV infection in those locations is common in young females [27, 50].…”

“…Some 17% of the female participants enrolled in our study had been vaccinated against HPV. The only studies [39,48,49] investigating the effect of HPV vaccination on oral HPV infection in females reported a lower prevalence of oral HPV infection in the vaccinated group. Here in this region of Italy, the most utilized HPV vaccine is the quadrivalent vaccine (Gardasil®) that provides protection against HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18.…”

“…Todays’ HPV vaccines Cevarix (GMK) and Gardasil (Merk) consist of VLPs from different HPV types and both contain HPV16 and 18 VLPs, while the latter also contains VLPs also of HPV6 and HPV11 [ 30 , 31 ]. These vaccines have been shown to be very efficient against cervical HPV infection, and also very likely efficient against oral HPV infection [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 ].…”
