HPV vaccine shows promise for girls on Immune-Suppressing drugs
NCT ID NCT01687192
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether the HPV vaccine works in girls aged 9 to 17 who are taking medicines that weaken their immune system, such as after an organ transplant or for diseases like lupus. The goal was to see if their bodies produce enough antibodies to protect against HPV. The results help doctors understand if these girls can get the same protection from the vaccine as healthy girls.
