Research progress of HPV therapeutic vaccine / 中华预防医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Bivalent and quadrivalent HPV vaccine have been approved by CFDA successively in China. However, currently available prophylactic vaccines have no therapeutic effect for established infection or disease. In recent years, based on the application of genomics and proteomics for interpretation of tumor antigen, animal experiments and clinical trials of vaccines aiming at a wide variety of antigens have been conducted. In this review, we summarize about the preclinical and clinical research status of HPV therapeutic vaccine and find that the efficacy of HPV therapeutic vaccine alone or combined with other conventional cancer treatment is satisfying, which has potential clinical application value. As the further research of tumor immune regulation and optimization of strategies for the HPV therapeutic vaccine, the vaccine will play an important role in improving the quality of life in cancer patients and eventually become widely used in clinical practice.
