Interventions

HPV Vaccine (Gardasil)BIOLOGICAL

HPV Vaccine Administration: According to the CDC, Gardasil should be delivered through a series of three intra-muscular injections over a six-month period. The second and third doses should be given two and six months after the first dose. The vaccine can be administered at the same visit as other age-appropriate vaccines, such as Tdap, Td, MCV4, influenza, and hepatitis B vaccines. Providers should consider a 15-minute waiting period for vaccine recipients following vaccination. FDA's Approval of Gardasil (June 8, 2006) lists the following information on product Formulation: Each 0.5 mL dose of the vaccine contains: 20 mcg of HPV 6 L1 protein 40 mcg of HPV 11 L1 protein 40 mcg of HPV 16 L1 protein 20 mcg of HPV 18 L1 protein 225 mcg aluminum (as amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate adjuvant) 9.56 mg of sodium chloride 0.78 mg of L-histidine 50 mcg of polysorbate 80 35 mcg of sodium borate water for injection

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Determine the population coverage of HPV vaccination of girls aged 9-13 offered within the context of cervical cancer screening and treatment of mothers

The aim of the study to assess whether we can fully vaccinate (all 3 doses),50% of girls aged 9 -13 in the participating districts, in an 18-month period. This corresponds to 4000 girls in Thailand and 4000 in Phillipines. The study will seek to undertand if this level of population coverage (50%), can be achieved through encouraging women that recive cervical cancer screening to bring in their daughters or relatives for vaccination.

Time frame: 18 months

Secondary Outcomes

Assess mothers' acceptability of having their daughters receive the full course of HPV vaccine after mothers receive screening and treatment services for cervical pre-cancer

Data on mothers knowledge of the vaccine, and intention to have their daughters vaccinated will be collected for a period of 1 year (or when the target number of 700 women/guardians is reached, whatever comes first). Data will be collected on: * Proportion of women with daughters who intend to vaccinate their daughters. * Proportion of daughters of screened mothers who return to receive the vaccine. * Proportion of girls who receive the first vaccine dose and are brought to the facility by a guardian/mother who did NOT recieve cervical cancer screening

Time frame: 1 year

Inform future programs that aim to introduce the HPV vaccine in the context of secondary screening for cervical cancer by determining the factors related to screened women bringing daughters for HPV vaccination and the costs of vaccine introduction

Programmatic data will be collected for the duration of the project, including but not limited to: * Cost required to implement the program * Logistics required to ensure supply and appropriate maintenance of vaccine * Human resources required to effectively adminster the vaccine as part of routine services. * Key communication and outreach messages that effectively educate the community

Time frame: 2 years
