GARDASIL™ Study in Healthy Females Between 9 and 26 Years of Age in Sub-Saharan Africa (V501-046)

Summary

The study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a 3-dose regimen of GARDASIL™ administered to healthy females between 9 and 26 years of age, in Sub-Saharan Africa. Data from the current study are needed in order to complement existing extensive safety data from the GARDASIL™ clinical trials program, and confirm that GARDASIL™ may be administered safely and will induce immune responses in populations from and living in Sub-Saharan Africa, as GARDASIL™ has not previously been studied in this region of the world.
