Follow-up of humoral immune response after HPV vaccination using first-void urine: A longitudinal cohort study.

ABSTRACT: Assessment of humoral immune responses following human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination currently relies on invasive blood sampling. This longitudinal cohort study explores the usability of first-void urine as a noninvasive alternative sample for antibody detection. In this study, 58 women receiving three doses of the 9vHPV vaccine within a Gardasil9 (9vHPV) Phase III randomized controlled trial were included. Participants provided paired first-void urine and blood samples before vaccination (M0), 1 month after the third dose (M7), and ~3 years after the third dose (M43). Type-specific antibody responses to the 9vHPV types were analyzed in 174 first-void urine and 172 serum samples using a virus-like particle-based IgG multiplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Additionally, total human
