9 Accelerating HPV Vaccination Uptake: A Public Health Priority Joseph A. Bocchini, Jr., MD Chair, NFID HPV Initiative Professor and Chair of Pediatrics Section of Pediatric Infectious Diseases Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center

10 The Problem: HPV Vaccine Uptake Lags Far Behind Other Adolescent Vaccines Adolescent Vaccination (13-17 years of age), United States, MMWR 2014; 63(29);

11 No State Comes Close to Meeting Healthy People Goal (80%) Completion of 3-dose HPV series in US females years of age, 2013 Source: CDC. MMWR Wkly Rep. 2014;63;29 19 Overall US coverage among female adolescents is 37.6%

12 HPV Vaccines Are Safe and Effective HPV vaccines are one of the most effective >95% efficacy in clinical trials for precancer endpoints and genital warts Post licensure studies show high effectiveness and large impact from vaccination on prevalence and incidence of genital warts HPV vaccines have a good safety record The most common adverse events reported are mild For serious adverse events reported, no associations found with vaccination syncope From June 2006 through March 2014, approximately 67 million doses of HPV4 were distributed in the US, and from October 2009 through March 2014, a total of 719,000 doses of HPV2 were distributed

13 Low Vaccine Coverage = Needless Risk for Preventable Cancers Percent of Cancers Caused by Vaccine-Preventable HPV Infection Cancers caused by HPV 16 or 18 In addition: HPV-16 associated oropharyngeal cancers are on the rise. Incidence is expected to surpass cervical cancer incidence by 2020 Type of Cancer Muñoz N. Int J Cancer. 2004;111(2):278. Schiffman M. Lancet. 2007;370(9590):890. Jayaprakash V.

15 HPV Vaccination as a Public Health Priority: A Call to Action

16 Actual and Potentially Achievable Vaccination Coverage of >1 HPV among Adolescent Girls if Missed Opportunities* Were Eliminated, NIS-Teen Potential Actual Among unvaccinated girls, 84% had a missed opportunity for HPV vaccination *Missed opportunity defined as having a healthcare encounter where at least one vaccine was administered but HPV was not; MMWR. 2013; 62:591-5

17 Increasing HPV Vaccine Uptake Must Be a Public Health Priority Increasing HPV vaccination is one of the most profound opportunities for cancer prevention Increasing HPV vaccination rates to 80%* would prevent 53,000 additional future cervical cancer cases among girls now 12 years old or younger Thousands of non-cervical HPV-associated cancers likely could also be prevented A growing proportion of future HPV-associated cancers (esp. oropharyngeal cancers) will occur in males *Healthy People 2020 goal: 80 percent of girls ages complete HPV vaccine series

19 Diagnosed with genital warts HPV vaccination impact on genital warts in young Australians 16% HPV vaccination available for females 12% Females <21 years 8% Males <21 years 4% 0% BMJ (Ali et al., 2013)

20 Parents Many reasons for not getting HPV Vaccine for child Not needed 17% Safety concerns/side effects 16% Lack of knowledge 10% Not sexually active 11% Not recommended 9% National Immunization Survey Teen, (Darden et al., 2013)

22 Clinicians Parents Receiving a recommendation is a strong predictor of HPV vaccination OR= 18 (range ) 7 studies; n=18,955, range 32-16,139

23 HPV vaccine initiation, boys Clinician Recommendation 60% 55% 40% 20% 0% 1% No recommendation Recommendation AJPH (Reiter et al., 2013)

24 Your HPV vaccination recommendation is uniquely influential

26 Recommendation Style Accepted vaccine Announcement It s time for shots. 74% Participatory Did you want to get some vaccines for her today? 4% Pediatrics (Opel et al., 2013)

28 A Call to Action for US Healthcare Professionals 1. Recommend HPV vaccine with the same strength and conviction used to recommend other adolescent vaccines 2. Educate yourself about HPV and HPV vaccines 3. Inform your colleagues and staff to ensure consistent, positive message delivery to patients, parents 4. Communicate vaccination benefits to patients, parents at every opportunity 5. Make vaccination procedures routine and focus on ways to reduce missed opportunities National Foundation for Infectious Diseases. Call to Action: HPV Vaccination as a Public Health Priority. August

29 HCP Recommendations (and How They re Made) Matter HCP recommendations are the single most persuasive reason adolescents get vaccines 1-3 Altering the order of recommendations (put HPV first) may have a positive impact on uptake Parents more likely to accept vaccine if HCPs use a presumptive style (83% uptake) vs. participatory (26% uptake) style (p < 0.001) 4 Presumptive: Well, we have to do some shots today Participatory: What do you want to do about shots? 1.

35 Rationale for Recommendation for Immunization of Year Olds Modeling shows greater impact if given universally before onset of sexual activity targeting risk groups not possible Antibody response in year olds is greater than year olds Antibody titers have persisted for > 8 years Vaccine is well tolerated in this age group Implementation advantage: visit at age already scheduled as immunization visit CDC.
