Study populations | |||||||
Intention to treat (ITT) | Subjects who received at least one vaccination, included all protocol violators and subjects who tested positive for HPV-16 infection at enrollment. | Subjects who were naıve to the relevant HPV type(s) at enrolment and had received at least one vaccination | Subjects who received at least 1 dose of vaccine or placebo and returned for follow-up. | Subjects who received at least 1 dose of vaccine or placebo and returned for follow-up. | Subjects who received X1 dose of vaccine or placebo and returned for follow-up. | Total vacine cohort (TVC) included all who received at least one vaccine dose and were evaluable for efficacy, irrespctive of baseline HPV status, cytological status, and serostatus. | Subjects who had received at least one dose of study vaccine or placebo in the initial efficacy study, and who had any data available for outcome measurement in the extended follow-up phase. |
Per protocol population (PPP) | Subjects who tested seronegative for HPV16 at the first study visit, tested negative for HPV16 DNA at all visits between day 1 and month 7 inclusive, and completed the entire three dose vaccine series. | Subjects who were PCR and seronegative to HPV 6, 11, 16, or 18 at enrolment, remained PCR-negative to the same vaccine-HPVtype (s) (to which they were naı¨ve at enrolment) through 1 month postdose three, received three doses of vaccine or placebo within 1 year, and did not violate the protocol. | Subjects who received all 3 doses of vaccine or placebo within 12 months. Were seronegative and HPV DNA negative on PCR analysis for HPV-6, HPV-11, HPV-16, or HPV-18. | Subjects who received all 3 doses of vaccine or placebo within 12 months. Were seronegative and HPV DNA negative on PCR analysis for HPV-6, HPV-11, HPV-16, or HPV-18. | Subjects who were seronegative at day 1 and PCR-negative (from day 1 through month 7 to the relevant vaccine HPV type(s) and did not violate the protocol. | According to protocol for efficacy (ATP-E) included all participants that received three doses of vaccine or placebo with a negative HPV DNA test, seronegative for HPV16 and/or 18 and with normal or low-grade cytology on day 1. | Subjects in the extended follow up phase who received three doses of HPV 16/18 vaccine or placebo, and who were negative for high-risk HPV DNA and seronegative for HPV 16 and 18 DNA |
