Controlled Trial of Cervical Cancer Screening Frequency Among Human Papillomavirus Vaccinated Women II: Cervical Pre‐Cancer End‐Points by Specific Non‐Vaccine HPV Types

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conducted a controlled trial among 5626 early adolescent women vaccinated in 2007–2009 against human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16/18 to evaluate the impact of high‐intensity versus low‐intensity cervical screening, respectively at ages 22/25/28 and 28 years with squamous‐cell intraepithelial lesions (SILs) as the end‐point.
