Study Summary

This trial will test whether earlier vaccination for HPV will result in less parental refusal and higher rates of full vaccination.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for medical practices in Metro Denver, Colorado and Metro Los Angeles, California that have a patient base of kids aged 9-13. At least 60% of providers at the practice must agree to participate, and they should not already be recommending HPV vaccination at ages 9-10.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if suggesting the HPV vaccine earlier, at ages 9-10 instead of the usual recommendation at ages 11-12, leads to higher vaccination rates and less parental refusal. The goal is to increase protection against HPV before early sexual activity begins.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While this trial focuses on vaccine timing rather than side effects, generally known side effects of the HPV vaccine can include pain or swelling where the shot was given, fever, headache or feeling tired.
