Summary

This study looks at whether giving the HPV vaccine on a different schedule (a first shot followed by a booster years later) still protects against HPV, a virus that can cause several cancers. About 200 healthy 9-11 year old girls and boys are taking part. Researchers will measure antibody levels over two years to see if the immune response is strong enough.
