Dallas, TX -- (SBWire) -- 06/13/2014 --The first prophylactic vaccine for immunization against human papillomavirus (HPV) became available in 2006. The global HPV vaccines market is now well established, yet vaccine coverage rates amongst the traditional target population of adolescent girls remain persistently low. Initially HPV vaccines were developed and marketed solely to protect against cervical cancer. In recent years the role of HPV in other cancers has been increasingly recognized which has facilitated a shift towards vaccinating a wider population, most significant has been the inclusion of males in routine vaccine recommendations in some countries. The current HPV vaccines market is dominated by one major player, Merck's Gardasil, with GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK's) HPV vaccine Cervarix providing the only competition. The introduction of Merck's nine-valent vaccine (V503) is set to change the future landscape of the HPV vaccines sector.
