Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the main cause of genital infection, which further causes cervical cancer and other HPV-related diseases. These diseases severely affect the physical and psychosexuals of both males and females. Cancer vaccines have contributed significantly to cancer prevention or therapy these years, especially for cervical cancer. In this review, the topics of what HPV is and how the innate immune system fights against it have been introduced. Furthermore, the mechanisms of three prophylactic HPV vaccines- Gardasil®, Cervarix® and Gardasil® 9- that contain various virus-like particles (VLP) have also been discussed. In addition, this paper discusses and compares the composition of each of these HPV vaccines and how effective they are in prevention of cervarix cancer, how the body reacts to immunization of these vaccines. Lastly, the achievements and the future of the vaccination programmes are investigated.
