Ningbo has a population of approximately 2.8 million local female residents between the ages of 16-45 years old. Women selfpay for the 3-dose regimen of G4 or G9. For the pregnancy surveillance, the study population includes women who had pregnancy exposure to G4 or G9, and their infants.

Study design details

Main study objective

To monitor within the NRHIP the diagnosis of 7 pre-specified new-onset autoimmune disorders diagnosed within up to 6 months after each dose of GARDASIL® or GARDASIL®9 in Chinese women, and the occurrence of stillbirth and major congenital anomaly in infants of Chinese women who were inadvertently vaccinated with GARDASIL® or GARDASIL®9 up to 30 days prior to conception or anytime during pregnancy.

Outcomes

Graves’ disease, Hashimoto’s disease, type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, optic neuritis, uveitis, stillbirth and congenital anomalies.

Data analysis plan

A summary of the number of vaccinated women who received GARDASIL® and GARDASIL®9 will be provided, and this information will also be stratified by age, calendar year of vaccination, number of doses, timing between doses, and similar factors. Descriptive analysis of outcomes of interest will be reported. Counts of women with new onset autoimmune disease within 6 months after vaccination will be provided for the 7 pre-specified conditions. Counts of stillbirths and congenital anomalies occurring in infants of women who received at least one dose of GARDASIL® and GARDASIL®9 up to 30 days priorto conception or anytime during pregnancy will also be included in the data summary. A summary of the case validation methods and results will also be provided.
