Brief summary
This study compares the health and economic impact of the bivalent HPV vaccine (HPV-1) and the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (HPV-2).
Detailed description
This study uses a prevalence-based model (by using efficacy data from each vaccine's respective trials and published cost data for Taiwan) which estimates the differences in lesions, genital warts, cervical cancer and costs from a healthcare payer's perspective prevented between HPV-1 and HPV-2 vaccines during one year (when all women are vaccinated). It also analyses costs from a societal perspective.
Interventions
Static prevalence-based model to estimate vaccine effect over a one-year period at a steady state (when all women are fully vaccinated).
