HPV vaccination for girls and boys in the United States has led to a real-world reduction of oral head and neck cancers in men, as well as the already documented prevention of cervical cancers in women, even though uptake of the vaccine in the U.S. has been suboptimal. This is according to findings from a retrospective analysis of HPV-associated cancer incidence, reported at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting. At the Chicago meeting, OncTimesTalk reporter Peter Goodwin met up with the lead author of the research, Jefferson DeKloe, BSc, from the Department of Otolaryngology at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia.

The human papillomavirus, or HPV, is a sexually transmitted, cancer-causing infection that can be largely prevented by a series of vaccinations in children. Nebraska Public Media's Kassidy Arena reports the state does well in starting that series, but not as well in completing it.

Nigeria launches mass HPV vaccination campaign to curb cervical cancer: Dr Umar Musa by Radio Islam

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a common sexually transmitted infection and has been a public health target in the United States for some time. As many as 80%-90% of sexually active adults have contracted HPV and about 50% of infections are at high risk of leading to cancer. Despite the availability of commercial vaccinations for HPV, education of clinicians and patients alike remains less than optimal. Join us for a discussion on the current state of HPV vaccination in the United States and how pharmacists play a critical role.  The information presented during the podcast reflects solely the opinions of the presenter.

This episode features an interview with Dr. Elmar Joura, Associate Professor of Gynecology in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Medical University of Vienna, who spoke to Xtalks about exciting new long-term Gardasil vaccine data from a study he led as principal investigator that showed the long-term impact of HPV vaccination.Merck recently announced new, 10-year long-term follow-up data published in the journal, Pediatrics, for girls and boys who received a three-dose regimen of the HPV vaccine Gardasil 9 at the ages of nine to 15 years old.Immunogenicity data from the study showed sustained HPV-antibody responses ten years after administration of the third dose in both boys and girls. Results also showed no cases of certain HPV-related high-grade disease or certain studied cancers or genital warts. Additionally, no GARDASIL 9-related serious adverse events or deaths were reported.HPV-related cancers and diseases remain a significant public health issue with the CDC estimating that tens of thousands of people were diagnosed with certain HPV-related cancers each year from 2015 to 2019. Hear more about the new long-term HPV vaccine data and the importance of increasing vaccine coverage, particularly in the developing world, in the prevention of HPV-related cancers.For more life science and medical device content, visit the Xtalks Vitals homepage.Follow Us on Social MediaTwitter: @Xtalks Instagram: @Xtalks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Xtalks.Webinars/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xtalks-webconferences YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/XtalksWebinars/featured

How did discoveries made with bovine papillomavirus help scientists develop the human papillomavirus vaccine? Doug Lowy discusses his journey that began with basic research and led to the production of the HPV vaccine. Julie’s Biggest Takeaways In the early 1950s, the U.S. was a high-incidence country for cervical cancer. Through application of screens using the Pap smear, doctors have been able to catch and excise suspicious tissue, leading to a significant drop in incidence. Cervical cancer remains high-incidence in low- and middle-income countries; in high-incidence countries, cervical cancer is the most common form of HPV-associated cancer. In the U.S., cervical cancer represents around 50% of the HPV-associated cancers, with others like penile, anal, and oropharyngeal cancers also represented. Henrietta Lacks, the woman from whom HeLa cells were derived, had a cervical adenocarcenoma caused by HPV-16. The viral DNA had integrated near the myc oncogene to generate high expression of this oncogene. The cell lines have been growing for decades but the epigenetic changes from HPV infection have led to a dependence of the cells on E6 and E7; if they are blocked or removed, the HeLa cells undergo apoptosis. Lowy’s work on bovine papilloma virus (BPV) played a key role in development of the HPV vaccine. Other researchers attempting to generate a neutralizing response to the HPV capsid failed, but Lowy and his colleague Reinhard Kirnbauer had successfully achieved neutralization using BPV. By comparing HPV and BPV sequences, Lowy realized there was a single amino acid change in the HPV-16 strain that was being used as a lab standard strain; fixing this restored capsid self-assembly, led to immunogenicity and provided the basis for the HPV vaccine. HPV L1 capsid protein has a repeating structure that induces a very high level of immune protection. Protection is so high that it is sterilizing, meaning that exposed individuals prevent any infection, not just disease. This may serve as the basis for a new strategy, using repeating structures such as ferretin in vaccine development. The incubation between infection and development of cancer can take decades, and the vaccine has not been on the market long enough to assess a difference in cancer incidence. It has resulted in a decrease in cervical dysplasia, the endpoints used in cervical cancer screening via pap smear, but no cancer reduction has been observed yet.

HPV vaccine rates remain low with only about 16% of U.S. adolescents being fully vaccinated by the time they turn 13 according to the CDC. With about 34,000 cases of HPV-induced cancers annually, we as providers have an opportunity to encourage more parents to vaccinate their children. In this episode we talk with guests Brian Gablehouse, MD, and Sean O’Leary, MD, about HPV vaccination hesitancy, recent updates to the HPV vaccination schedule and how to utilize motivational interviewing techniques when talking with parents. Dr. Gablehouse is a pediatrician at Peak Pediatrics located in Wheat Ridge and Thornton, Colorado.

The show that brings you interviews with people just like you whose lives were forever changed by a diagnosis. [00:00:24][8.7] Lita: [00:00:26] I'm Lita. [00:00:26][0.2] Ron: [00:00:27] I'm Ron. [00:00:27][0.2] Jean: [00:00:28] And I'm Jean Marie. [00:00:28][0.5] Lita: [00:00:29] Collectively we are the hosts of podcast dx. This podcast is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice diagnosis or treatment. Always ask the advice of your physician or other qualified health care provider for any questions you may have regarding a medical condition or treatment and before undertaking any new health care regimen never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have heard on this podcast. [00:01:03][33.6] Lita: [00:01:05] On Today's podcast We are going to be talking about the human papilloma virus. And the FDA approved. HPV. Vaccines HPV. [00:01:14][8.9] Jean: [00:01:18] (sing-song-rap) Are you down on HPV? [00:01:18][-0.1] Lita: [00:01:19] (sing-song-rap) Yeah! You know me! [00:01:19][0.1] Ron: [00:01:19] (clears throat) Ok Then. I've heard this a lot but. Please tell me what. Does HPV stand for? [00:01:24][5.2] Jean: [00:01:25] HPV stands for human papilloma virus. And there are over actually 200 viruses that are considered to be HPV. Viruses. According to the Centers for Disease Control. About a quarter of the population currently have HPV infection and nine out of 10 individuals will get an HPV infection at some point in their life. [00:01:46][21.2] Lita: [00:01:47] And most cases of the infection are taken care of by the body's own immune system, right? [00:01:51][4.4] Jean: [00:01:51] That's right. Some HPV infections though can lead to cancer later in life. [00:01:57][6.0] Ron: [00:01:58] Well how does somebody get an HPV infection? [00:02:00][2.3] Jean: [00:02:00] Typically through skin to skin contact. According to research. Some studies actually suggest that HPV could. Even be spread through something as simple as a French kiss. But it's the skin to skin contact. [00:02:13][12.3] Ron: [00:02:14] Well. Why is that such a concern? [00:02:16][2.0] Jean: [00:02:17] Studies have shown that it. In HPV infection and can lead to cancer. Including cancer of the throat tongue. Tonsils. Cervix the bulldog vagina. Anus. And. An HPV infection can also lead to warts. On the body. And non cancerous tumors. Of the respiratory tract which can interfere with breathing. [00:02:37][20.0] Ron: [00:02:38] Well is there anything we can do to reduce our chances of getting an infection. [00:02:42][3.7] Lita: [00:02:43] Absolutely. There are three preventative vaccines currently. Gardasil, Gardasil 9, And. Server. They're all approved by the CDC. The vaccine can actually help prevent future HPV related illnesses and cancer. [00:03:01][18.4] Jean: [00:03:02] And right now in the U.S. Gardasil 9 is the vaccine that's being given. [00:03:07][5.2] Lita: [00:03:08] OK. Well, it just surprised me that according to the Mayo Clinic the vaccines can actually protect against cervical cancer. [00:03:16][7.6] Jean: [00:03:17] That's right. [00:03:17][0.2] Lita: [00:03:18] And then, I don't know is there a link between HPV and breast cancer. [00:03:21][3.3] Jean: [00:03:22] There's still research that's being done on that. But we've seen a possible link between HPV and breast cancer. [00:03:26][4.4] Ron: [00:03:29] Well who should get the HPV Vaccination. [00:03:31][1.7] Jean: [00:03:32] Right now. The CDC recommends that males and females between the ages of 9 and 14 years of age should receive two vaccinations. So they receive one vaccination and then receive the second vaccination approximately six months later. Those between the ages of 15 and 26. Will actually receive. Three vaccination doses. So they'll receive one. Vaccination. Two months later something one in six months after that they'll receive the third vaccination. But you should always consult. Your health care provider to see which that the definition schedule. Would work best for you. [00:04:06][34.1] Ron: [00:04:07] OK then. Is there anyone that shouldn't get the vaccine? [00:04:11][3.5] Lita: [00:04:12] You should probably discuss your concerns and any concerns that you have. Regarding the HPV vaccine with a qualified physician. The CDC warns that some individuals with a severe life threatening allergic reaction to any of the components in an HPV vaccine should not get vaccinated for HPV. [00:04:32][19.6] Jean: [00:04:33] Just like when you're going to get a flu vaccine they ask you if you have any allergies for that kind of thing, that flu vaccination. And if you are pregnant, Allergic to yeast, are suffering from any serious illnesses. You should always consult your physician before getting vaccinated. They don't recommend pregnant women, or people with severe allergies to yeast, get vaccinated with a HPV vaccine. Or if you had a reaction in the past to another vaccine or to any HPV vaccine. [00:05:01][27.7] Lita: [00:05:01] Right. Well that's often how they say always consult your physician before getting vaccinated for where they think they're going to get their getting vaccinated. Where do they think they're going to get them? They are getting vaccinated at the physician. they've got to consultant them!. [00:05:12][11.1] Jean: [00:05:13] Over the past 11 years there's actually been a hundred million doses of the HPV vaccine distributed in the U.S. alone! [00:05:21][7.2] Ron: [00:05:22] What are some of the possible side effects of the HPV vaccine. [00:05:25][3.6] Jean: [00:05:26] Well I'm glad you asked according to the vaccine. Adverse Event Reporting System which is where. Any side effects for a vaccination are reported the most frequently reported side effects are those that you would expect with any injection. So. These would include but not limited to fainting, headaches, Dizziness, nausea, feve, and pain and possible discoloration or inflamation at the injection site. So if whenever possible you should be seated before you get vaccinated. And if you feel dizzy. Then you want to remain seated. [00:05:58][31.9] Lita: [00:06:00] But those arent really bad side effects. I mean, when you think that you're preventing a certain type of cancer. [00:06:05][5.5] Jean: [00:06:06] Well, you're you're helping to prevent it. [00:06:08][2.1] Lita: [00:06:08] Right. [00:06:08][0.0] Jean: [00:06:09] Right. [00:06:09][0.0] Lita: [00:06:09] I mean that's certainly worth it. [00:06:11][1.6] Jean: [00:06:11] Right. In the time that we're reporting this the only HPV vaccination like we said that's administered in the U.S. right now is Gardasil nine. It covers more of the human papilloma virus. And as of December. 2017 . Of the twenty nine million doses of Gardasil nine. There were only seven thousand or just over seven thousand reported adverse events. And about three percent of those. Seven thousand events were actually considered serious in nature. [00:06:42][30.7] Lita: [00:06:43] No not really a bad statistic. [00:06:45][1.5] Jean: [00:06:46] No and if you can help prevent. Future incidents of cancer then I think it's well worth asking your physician about a human papilloma virus for you. Or your kid. [00:06:55][9.4] Ron: [00:06:57] I do have a question though. Where it is about 3 percent were considered serious. What is considered serious? [00:07:02][5.1] Jean: [00:07:03] Anything that. Requires. Sustained. Medical intervention or has sustaining effects. On your medical condition. So having a slight fever that goes away without being serious. Having a slight dizzy spell at the time of the vaccination I did not consider it serious. But if there is a serious reaction to what actually. Of those. Vaccinations. Of the. Millions and millions of vaccinations that were distributed. There were. Some concerns about a. Link between that and the Guillean Barr syndrome. But it's a very rare disease that damages. Your immune system starts to damage from nerve cells having muscle weakness and perhaps paralysis. But. Out of the. Millions of vaccinations. Only four. There only four reports of GBS. So I think that's still a rather low. Statistic. Or Statistics. [00:07:59][56.6] Lita: [00:08:01] Yes kind of heard you when you're trying to cover so many different people. Somebody different people are going to have different infection. You can't cover everything that they're doing your best. [00:08:11][10.5] Jean: [00:08:12] Right. And they said too that. A number of the. Incidents may have been the result of. An error where the vaccine was not stored properly or vaccination was given to someone who should not have received the vaccination. [00:08:24][12.5] Lita: [00:08:25] So they might have been allergic to use. Like you were saying it was and didnt to the vaccine right. [00:08:30][4.5] Ron: [00:08:30] So all in all it sounds like the benefits far outweigh. Any any of the adverse effects we could get from the vaccine. [00:08:37][6.2] Jean: [00:08:37] I know. I was. In that age bracket or if I had children of that age I would certainly recommend that they receive a human papillomavirus vaccine. [00:08:46][8.5] Lita: [00:08:46] Is this something that pediatricians are recommending to do. [00:08:49][2.5] Jean: [00:08:49] Yes. The CDC has recommended as well. [00:08:51][1.8] Lita: [00:08:52] I mean I haven't really heard too much about it. So you were kind of surprised by whether you brought it up and we were able to talk about it today. Thank you very much Jean. [00:09:01][8.9] Jean: [00:09:01] No problem. I think most of the advertising been directed at the younger generation. [00:09:07][5.4] Lita: [00:09:08] OK. Well that explains it. I dont listen to that. [00:09:10][2.3] Jean: [00:09:13] M and M, And Nick at night. [00:09:14][0.8] Lita: [00:09:14] No, Im on a different channel completly. [00:09:16][2.1] Ron: [00:09:16] . Well that was definitely a very interesting. Conversation. I think I learned quite a bit myself. [00:09:25][8.7] Lita: [00:09:26] I did too. Good topic Thank you. [00:09:27][1.3] Jean: [00:09:28] Thank you. [00:09:28][0.3] Lita: [00:09:28] Continuing with today's topic we will be interviewing Courtney Miller who is an integrative nutrition health coach. Courtney believes strongly in empowering women who have HPV to work on their diet to boost their immune systems which in turn helps fight HPV naturally. Courtney's book HPV free will be released on April 22nd on Amazon. There are approximately 15 million new cases of HPV every year in the US. As we discussed earlier there are many different types of HPV subtypes can cause health problems including genital warts and cancers. [00:10:11][42.7] Lita: [00:10:13] Hello Courtney and thank you for joining us today. [00:10:15][1.2] Coutrney: [00:10:16] Thank you so much for having me, it's My pleasure. [00:10:18][1.6] Lita: [00:10:21] I understand that you have been diagnosed with HPV and found the strength and determination to assist others in fighting it through the holistic medicine approach including diet? [00:10:30][9.7] Coutrney: [00:10:30] Yeah that's correct. I've actually had a long journey with HPV. My journey started back in 2010 when I was originally diagnosed with HPV and at the time I didn't know much about the disease or the virus at all. [00:10:49][18.5] Lita: [00:10:50] Sure,. [00:10:50][0.0] [00:10:51] And so I went off of you know what my doctor said which was just to wait and see. So I went ahead and went home and passed by a year and went back and from that point on it had changed into cervical dysplasia. And so I went on you know kind of long journey with trying to figure out what to do with that. A doctor would recommend a Leep the Leep is just a laser that kind of cuts in the narrow edges of the cervix to remove any of the mutated cells. I did go ahead and get a Leep and after that experience I went back and got tested and the dysplasia had returned actually worse than before and the doctors offered me another Leep. [00:11:33][42.6] Lita: [00:11:34] Oh. [00:11:34][0.0] Coutrney: [00:11:35] And when it was about that point when they were just offering me a second sleep and I just knew something else could be done here. So I started doing a bit of my own research and really started to learn how the body's immune system has the ability to heal this virus and what we can do to help boost our immune system so that the body has a better chance of clearing the virus and mutated cells of the cervix. [00:12:01][25.6] Lita: [00:12:02] And thats how you got into the Integrative Nutrition portion of your career. [00:12:09][7.0] Coutrney: [00:12:10] Correct, Yeah. So it was at that point that I started doing research and I really realized how important our diet is and how our body works and how our body is able to heal itself oftentimes when you go to the doctor they just tell you to wait and see which doesn't feel very empowering at all. [00:12:26][16.3] Lita: [00:12:27] Right. [00:12:27][0.0] Coutrney: [00:12:27] Really it's kind of more or more like the wait and worry approach you go home and you freak out and you're stressed out and you think of all the worst case scenarios. And when we do that we actually put our body into a state of stress and when we're in that state of stress our immune system is actually weakened. So I really want to reach out to other women to help empower them that they can do something to you know you can take that six months and you can make some changes to your diet you can improve your lifestyle and improve your chances of clearing the virus. So it's you know it was four years after that point after I refused that second Leep, that I did research I read every book I could find. I scoured the internet for articles and kind of put together my own prescription of what I was going to do to take care of myself. And a big part of that was my diet. It was mostly a whole food plant based diet. I didn't go strictly vegetarian or strictly paleo I don't really like to fit into one box. But I tried to eat healthy and listen to my body and I think that's the most important part you know using your body as a guide to know what you should be eating. You know for me I still included small amounts of meat and dairy for other people dairy doesn't work well with their system and it's better if they you know cut it out completely. [00:13:52][85.0] Jean: [00:13:54] IWho knows you better than you. [00:13:55][0.9] Coutrney: [00:13:55] Exactly exactly. So there was a lot of experimenting along the way. You know I would keep changing it up keep reading more trying new things but also trying to keep it simple. You know I think a lot of times we get caught up on looking for one pill or one supplement or you know one quick fix. And to me I knew if I was going to heal that I had to do an overhaul of my entire lifestyle and really look at not only diet but also the way I was living my life you know the way I was spending my time how I interacted with, you know, the people around me how I interacted in stressful situations all of those I think, play an important role in the healing process. [00:14:40][44.8] Jean: [00:14:41] Sure it sounds like a very holistic approach and actually it gave you some control in this situation as well. [00:14:48][7.0] Lita: [00:14:48] Don't you wish the doctors had the same insight. I mean it seems like what you're saying makes perfect sense. [00:14:55][6.1] Jean: [00:14:55] Well I think integrative health and that whole approach maybe, you know, that's coming more into, I don't want to say, into fashion, . But yeah the whole integrative health approach is definitely in line with what you're saying Courtney. And it sounds like. [00:15:10][15.3] Coutrney: [00:15:11] Right. [00:15:11][0.0] Jean: [00:15:11] An amazing amount of work on this. [00:15:13][1.4] Lita: [00:15:14] Yes. And you're staying so positive and and now besides helping yourself get through this you're also helping others by being a. coach. so do you actually work one on one with these people in the studio or gym or is the training done remotely. Tell us a little bit about the career that you chose. [00:15:33][19.6] Coutrney: [00:15:35] Yes I've done most of my training remotely. I find actually women feel a little more comfortable to open up about such a delicate situation when we're on the phone. You know it's a little easier rather than face to face. Just talk to someone openly though. Often oftentimes I find remotely worked really well. And then that way it's fading you know both me and the client time from having to meet at a certain location. You can meet with me wherever you are. You can meet with me in your pajamas if you'd like. [00:16:05][30.0] Lita: [00:16:05] (laughter) [00:16:05][0.0] Coutrney: [00:16:06] You know I just want to make sure you know you're comfortable and so usually do one on ones. And as I started doing that more health coaching I realized that doing just one on one was really limiting my reach. I started seeing there's only so many clients you can work with one on one you know in any given amount of time. [00:16:26][19.4] Jean: [00:16:27] Exactly. You're only one person. [00:16:29][2.0] Lita: [00:16:30] Maybe clone yourself. [00:16:30][0.1] Coutrney: [00:16:30] So yeah. Exactly. [00:16:31][0.6] Coutrney: [00:16:32] But until then I tried to look at how I could expand my reach. So what I've shifted to doing is writing this book and spending more time on getting the knowledge out there to more women. And I'm still operating like one hour empowerment sessions to help boost and jumpstart your healing journey. But other than that I'm really looking at ways that I can connect with more women and really get the information out there to more women. So I'm trying to do more with the book now and looking to actually next year release some E courses online that women can work through at their own pace. [00:17:11][39.1] Lita: [00:17:12] That sounds great. [00:17:13][0.6] Jean: [00:17:13] Yeah you can definitely reach the masses. [00:17:15][1.7] Lita: [00:17:16] Right now I know that you've done a lot of research since you were diagnosed with HPV but you can remember back to when the doctors first inform you. Did you know what to expect back then. [00:17:27][10.8] Coutrney: [00:17:27] Absolutely not. Like many other women I think I was confused scared overwhelmed. I had a lot of questions and not a lot of answers no to a lot of the doctors HPV is so common that I was just another woman with HPV. But to me it you know it was affecting my whole life and my whole world and I had a lot of questions even if I didn't know what those questions were or what to even ask at first. So I didn't know what to think. And I had seen a couple different doctors and kind of got some differing differing opinions. You know one doctor told me that the virus would stay in my body forever while the other doctor told me that it would clear on its own. Either way I felt really powerless like there was nothing I could do or at least that's kind of how I felt after I left the doctor's office originally. Just like there's not much I can do I just have to wait and see what happens. And that I think is a problem with the health care system I think we should empower women if we're doing nothing but waiting and seeing in that six month we should take a look and see what what it is that we can do. So at first I had no idea I really had to do my own research on my own and what I learned is just to take notes to write things down to ask questions and to actually hold the doctors responsible to answer your questions and in doing that I felt a lot more empowered and more in control of my own situation and more in control of my own health care plan. And I think that was actually a big part of the healing process too when we're not sitting by as just a you know a patients you know we're not just a bystander to our own health care plan but take charge of it. We have a better chance of healing. [00:19:20][112.9] Lita: [00:19:21] That's really amazing. You have the best outlook of anyone that I have ever met. [00:19:27][5.8] Jean: [00:19:27] And it's very exciting that you can get your book is just coming it's just a matter of days and we can really that is a source of empowerment than anything. I just I'm very excited for you and I'm excited for all of us women out there every now have this resource available to say. [00:19:46][18.6] Coutrney: [00:19:46] Yeah I'm pretty excited about it too. [00:19:48][2.3] Coutrney: [00:19:49] I definitely put my heart and my soul into this book. I tried to keep it short and sweet and inspiring not overwhelming you with all of the information on HPV or specific diets that you should follow but getting you excited about being in charge of your own health care plan and starting to take action and showing you ways that you can take a little step that might add up to make a big difference when you go back for your next pap smear and say six months or a year. There's a lot you can do in that time to really change it. So I've tried to capture that in the book which comes out this Sunday the 22nd. And for those first three days I'm actually offering the book completely free so that Sunday Monday and Tuesday go to Amazon download the book app free to me it's really just more important to get that information out there get women inspired to do something about their health and get them taking action so that they feel more in control that they can make informed decisions about what to do next. In a seemingly overwhelming and sometimes scary situation. [00:20:54][65.3] Lita: [00:20:55] Sure in and the title of your book again is HPV Free? [00:20:57][2.5] Coutrney: [00:20:59] Correct. HPV free a holistic approach to boost the immune system and clear the infection naturally. [00:21:05][6.0] Jean: [00:21:06] Okay. And we're definitely going to put a link on our Web site for people who want to find your book. And it sounds like I mean just read a great resource for those who've been diagnosed with HPV but it also sounds like a great resource for everyone who wants to take a more holistic approach to their health. [00:21:19][13.3] Lita: [00:21:21] It's not just HPV what you're saying. Courtney will work with anybody with anyone's disease no matter what it is. Because like you're saying getting the stress out of your body so that you can heal better is such a big step. And that's probably the step that the doctors don't do. But your attitude and your coaching and your techniques. That's exactly what we need. [00:21:43][22.4] Jean: [00:21:44] Yeah and we are so grateful that you took the time to tell us about this and to talk with us today and you're offering book free when it first comes out to reach more people out there and it's just an amazing amazing job that you've done here where we're proud to have spoken with you today. [00:21:59][15.6] Lita: [00:22:00] Gosh yes absolutely. [00:22:01][0.8] Coutrney: [00:22:02] So thank you so much for having me. [00:22:04][2.2] Lita: [00:22:04] You know. Absolutely. COURTNEY Now this is your time to wrap it up and we'll let you say whatever it is that you want to say to our audience so that they can feel empowered today. Go right ahead. [00:22:16][11.3] Coutrney: [00:22:17] Absolutely. So if you're out there if you've just been diagnosed with HPV if you've been told by your doctor to wait and see and you're at home and you're scared and you're nervous please understand you're not alone. This is nothing to be ashamed of and you're not dirty because of this. This is a common disease that many of us have and many of us will have throughout our lifetime and really opening up and finding others to connect with has really helped me.

March 4 is HPV Awareness Day. The HPV vaccination could virtually eliminate cervical cancer and greatly reduce the incidence of several other types of cancer. But myths and misunderstandings have kept the number of children who receive the vaccine alarmingly low. Dr. Paskett walks us through the ABCs of HPV and the life-saving importance of the vaccination.

The one where we talk about males who believe themselves to be smart, the 2nd amendment, and sand dates.

This episode features Dr. Scott Manaker, discussing the UpToDate What’s New topic on the lack of benefit of glucocorticoids in severe sepsis (starts at 01:07); and Dr. Joel Palefsky, discussing the UpToDate Practice Changing UpDate regarding updated guidelines for HPV vaccination in young adolescents (starts at 14:56). Dr. Sandy Falk hosts.

Apparently, most pediatricians are now recommending the HPV vaccination for children.  The vaccine has gone mainstream in the last 8 years and now part of the routine physical for girls and boys ages 11-16.  So with so many doctors recommending it, do you really need to consider whether or not to have your children vaccinated?  Pediatrician, Dr. Allyson Berkey, is not so quick to support the vaccine.  The combination of side effects, new treatments and preventative measures has this mother of 3 standing on the sidelines.  Dr. Berkey shares her thoughts, some statistics and facts you don't often hear at your child's annual physical.

Dr Clifford speaks with ecancertv at IARC 2016 with short-to-medium term results of HPV vaccinations across Bhutan and Rwanda to reduce virus transmission, with further surveillance required to monitor cervical cancer incidence. He notes that distribution of the vaccination program through schools had wider uptake than distribution in the community. Dr Clifford also explains further investigation into pre-vaccination levels of infection among young women, and the potential impacts of HIV infection in this group.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a very common virus. Nearly 80 million people—about one in four—are currently infected in the United States. Although HPV is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections and is a linked cause of cervical cancer, the infection is often silent. Patients may never know they have the infection but often have serious consequences. Educating the population about the importance of the HPV vaccination is necessary to bring down the number of infections. Hear from Dr. Pahud on the benefits of the HPV vaccination for eligible patients and impact it will have on the community.

Catherine Sauvaget and Ryo Konno discuss Japan’s low uptake of screening programmes for breast and cervical cancer.

Since the HPV vaccine was introduced to the public in 2006, it has been surrounded in controversy:conspicuously fast tracked by the FDA;speedily endorsed by the CDC;rapidly introduced to be mandated by nearly every state in the US;unusually challenged by some of the media and medical establishment, including the New England Journal of Medicine, the New York Times, and even one of its inventors;hailed by Pharmaceutical Executive magazine as “brand of the year” for its innovative and breakthrough marketing savvy;so aggressively promoted by Merck that Gardasil sales exploded, far eclipsing its flagship Measles, Mumps and Rubella II vaccine and bailing the company out of its staggering Vioxx litigation woes; andso widely adopted that, today, approximately 60% of adolescent girls and 42% of adolescent boys have received the vaccine.Time to add another bullet point to the above list…On January 14, 2016, the activist blog SaneVax revealed the details of an open letter sent by Sin Hang Lee, MD to the World Health Organization claiming “manipulation of data and suppression of science in order to maintain the illusion of HPV vaccine safety in the face of valid contradictory evidence.”Valerie Borek, Esq interviews SaneVax chief Norma Erickson about the stunning allegations:Who is Dr. Lee and why/how is he in a position to make these statements?What, exactly, did he say?What are the policy implications of this announcement?What has been the response of medical and government authorities?Is the HPV vaccine safe? What should parents do?Norma Erickson, President of Sane Vax, Inc., was an average citizen working as an independent business consultant and freelance author before she became aware of the number of people experiencing reported adverse reactions to the HPV vaccine. In 2010 she established SaneVax as a direct response to the worldwide devastation left in the wake of HPV vaccination programs. The SaneVax team believes no vaccine should be approved for public use without first being proven Safe, Affordable, Necessary and Effective.

Prof Cuzick talks to ecancertv at ECC 2015 about his research into HPV Vaccination and related cancer prevention and screening.
