Advertisements promoting human papillomavirus vaccine for adolescent boys: does source matter?

ABSTRACT: Many parents recall hearing of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine through drug company advertisements. This study sought to examine whether parents accurately recall the source (ie, sponsor) of advertisements promoting HPV vaccine and the impact of drug company advertisements.A U.S. national sample of 544 parents of adolescent boys aged 11-17 participated in an online between-subjects experiment. Parents viewed an advertisement encouraging HPV vaccination for boys with a logo from a randomly assigned source. Parents rated trust, likability and motivation for vaccination while viewing the advertisement and later indicated who they believed sponsored it.Nearly half (43%) of parents who viewed a hypothetical advertisement containing a logo incorrectly identified the advertisement source. More parents correctly identified the source of drug company advertisements than advertisement from other sources (62% vs. 25%, OR 4.93, 95% CI 3.26 to 7.46). The majority of parents who saw a logo-free advertisement believed a drug company created it (60%). Among parents who correctly identified the advertisement source, drug company advertisements decreased motivation to vaccinate their sons, an association mediated by reduced liking of and trust in the advertisements.Parents were more accurate in identifying drug company advertisements, primarily because they tended to assume any advertisement was from a drug company. Public health organisations may need to take special measures to ensure their messages are not perceived as sponsored by drug companies.

Project description:ImportanceRates of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection have decreased since the introduction of HPV vaccines in populations with high vaccine uptake. Data are limited for adolescent and young adult populations in US metropolitan centers.ObjectiveTo determine HPV infection rates in adolescent girls and young women aged 13 to 21 years in New York City following HPV vaccination.Design, setting, and participantsThis cohort study of type-specific cervical HPV detection was conducted at a large adolescent-specific integrated health center in New York City between October 2007 and September 2019. Participants included an open cohort of adolescent girls and young adult women who received the HPV vaccine (Gardasil; Merck & Co) over a 12-year period following HPV vaccination introduction. Data analysis was concluded September 2019.ExposuresCalendar date and time since receipt of first vaccine dose.Main outcomes and measuresTemporal associations in age-adjusted postvaccine HPV rates.ResultsA total of 1453 participants, with a mean (SD) age at baseline of 18.2 (1.4) years, were included in the cohort (African American with no Hispanic ethnicity, 515 [35.4%] participants; African American with Hispanic ethnicity, 218 [15.0%] participants; Hispanic with no reported race, 637 [43.8%] participants). Approximately half (694 [47.8%] participants) were vaccinated prior to coitarche. Age-adjusted detection rates for quadrivalent vaccine types (HPV-6, HPV-11, HPV-16, and HPV-18) and related types (HPV-31, and HPV-45) decreased year over year, with the largest effect sizes observed among individuals who had been vaccinated before coitarche (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.81; 95% CI, 0.67-0.98). By contrast, detection was higher year over year for nonvaccine high-risk cervical HPV types (aOR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.04-1.13) and anal HPV types (aOR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.05-1.17). The largest effect sizes were observed with nonvaccine types HPV-56 and HPV-68.Conclusions and relevanceWhereas lower detection rates of vaccine-related HPV types were observed since introduction of vaccines in female youth in New York City, rates of some nonvaccine high-risk HPV types were higher. Continued monitoring of high-risk HPV prevalence is warranted.

Project description:ImportanceDespite availability of a safe and effective vaccine, an estimated 36 500 new cancers in the US result from human papillomavirus (HPV) annually. HPV vaccine uptake falls short of national public health goals and lags other adolescent vaccines.ObjectiveTo evaluate the individual and combined impact of 2 evidence-based interventions on HPV vaccination rates among 11- and 12-year-old children.Design, setting, and participantsThe study team conducted a cluster randomized clinical trial with a stepped-wedge factorial design at 6 primary care practices affiliated with Mayo Clinic in southeastern Minnesota. Using block randomization to ensure balance of patient volumes across interventions, each practice was allocated to a sequence of four 12-month steps with the initial baseline step followed by 2 intermediate steps (none, 1, or both interventions) and a final step wherein all practices implemented both interventions. Each month, all eligible children who turned 11 or 12 years in the 2 months prior were identified and followed until the end of the step. Data were analyzed from April 2018 through March 2019. Participants included children who turned 11 or 12 years old and were due for a dose of the HPV vaccine.InterventionsParents of eligible patients were mailed reminder/recalls following their child's birthdays. Health care professionals received confidential audit/feedback on their personal in-office success with HPV vaccine uptake via intra-campus mail. These 2 interventions were assessed separately and in combination.Main outcomes and measuresEligible patients' receipt of any valid dose of HPV vaccine during the study step.ResultsThe cohort was comprised of 9242 11-year-olds (5165 [55.9%]) and 12-year-olds (4077 [44.1%]), and slightly more males (4848 [52.5%]). Parent reminder/recall resulted in 34.6% receiving a dose of HPV vaccine, health care professional audit/feedback, 30.4%, both interventions together resulted in 39.7%-all contrasted to usual care, 21.9%. Compared with usual care, the odds of HPV vaccination were higher for parent reminder/recall (odds ratio [OR], 1.56; 95% CI, 1.23-1.97) and for the combination of parent reminder/recall and health care professional audit/feedback (OR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.44-2.85). Health care professional audit/feedback alone did not differ significantly from usual care (OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 0.94-1.51).Conclusions and relevanceIn this cluster randomized trial, the combination of parent reminder/recall and health care professional audit/feedback increased the odds of HPV vaccination compared with usual care. These findings underscore the value of simultaneous implementation of evidence-based strategies to improve HPV vaccination.

Project description:IntroductionIn Hong Kong (HK), a single-cohort vaccination program for 10-12-year-old girls with the 9-valent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine (9vHPV; types 6/11/16/18/31/33/45/52/58) has been launched. This study assessed the public health impact and cost-effectiveness of implementing routine 9vHPV vaccination (12-year-olds) with or without catch-up 9vHPV vaccination (13-18-year-olds) in HK.MethodsThe health impact and costs of implementing routine 9vHPV vaccination with or without catch-up vaccination over a 100-year time horizon were evaluated using a validated HPV-type transmission dynamic model adapted to the HK population; analyses were performed from a healthcare payer perspective. Routine vaccination (12-year-old girls) and catch-up vaccination (13-18 years) assumed vaccine coverage rates of 70% (base case) and 30%, respectively. The model also assumed herd immunity, lifelong vaccine protection, a discount rate of 3%, and a cost per dose of HK dollars (HKD) 858 [United States dollars (USD) 110] and HKD 1390 (USD 179) for the 2-valent HPV (2vHPV) and 9vHPV vaccines, respectively. HPV disease-related incidence and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) per quality-adjusted-life-year (QALY) were estimated. Cost-effectiveness was determined at a ceiling threshold of HK dollars (HKD) 382,046 (USD 49,142) or 1.0 times the gross domestic product per capita of HK.ResultsCompared with routine 9vHPV alone, routine plus catch-up 9vHPV is projected to reduce cervical cancer incidence by 3.4%. Routine plus catch-up 9vHPV will also reduce genital warts incident cases for males/females by 2.6%/5.4%. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were HKD 29,911 (USD 3847)/quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) for routine plus catch-up 9vHPV versus routine 9vHPV alone and HKD 25,524 (USD 3283)/QALY for routine 9vHPV alone versus screening only. Sensitivity analyses indicated that routine plus catch-up 9vHPV compared with routine 9vHPV alone remained cost-effective at coverage rates of 30% and 90%.ConclusionsThis analysis predicts that the current HK vaccination strategy can be considered cost-effective and will provide maximum health benefit. These results support addition of the routine 9vHPV vaccine with or without catch-up 9vHPV vaccination to the regional vaccination program in HK.
