No prospective studies have been conducted in the U.S. to show that two doses of 9vHPV vaccine are non-inferior to three doses among individuals in this age range,” said lead researcher Dr. Abbey Berenson, a UTMB professor within the department of OB/GYN and director of the UTMB Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Women’s Health. “This study was designed to fill that gap of knowledge.” This news was also shared on Houston’s KPRC.
