Health and economic impact of HPV 16 and 18 vaccination and cervical cancer screening in India
Open accessAbstract
Cervical cancer is a leading cause of cancer death among women in low-income countries, with approximately 25% of cases worldwide occurring in India. We estimated the potential health and economic impact of different cervical cancer prevention strategies. After empirically calibrating a cervical cancer model to country-specific epidemiologic data, we projected cancer incidence, life expectancy, and lifetime costs (I$2005), and calculated incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (I$/YLS) for the following strategies: pre-adolescent vaccination of girls before age 12, screening of women over age 30, and combined vaccination and screening. Screening differed by test (cytology, visual inspection, HPV DNA testing), number of clinical visits (1, 2 or 3), frequency (1 x , 2 x , 3 x per lifetime), and age range (35-45). Vaccine efficacy, coverage, and costs were varied in sensitivity analyses. Assuming 70% coverage, mean reduction in lifetime cancer risk was 44% (range, 28-57%) with HPV 16,18 vaccination alone, and 21-33% with screening three times per lifetime. Combining vaccination and screening three times per lifetime provided a mean reduction of 56% (vaccination plus 3-visit conventional cytology) to 63% (vaccination plus 2-visit HPV DNA testing). At a cost per vaccinated girl of I$10 (per dose cost of $2), pre-adolescent vaccination followed by screening three times per lifetime using either VIA or HPV DNA testing, would be considered cost-effective using the country's per capita gross domestic product (I$3452) as a threshold. In India, if high coverage of pre-adolescent girls with a low-cost HPV vaccine that provides long-term protection is achievable, vaccination followed by screening three times per lifetime is expected to reduce cancer deaths by half, and be cost-effective.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This modeling study projected that in India, pre-adolescent HPV 16/18 vaccination plus screening three times per lifetime could substantially reduce cervical cancer burden and be cost-effective if the vaccine is very low-cost. At a cost per vaccinated girl of I$10 (about $2 per dose), vaccination followed by VIA or HPV DNA screening was expected to be cost-effective using India’s per capita GDP (I$3452) as a threshold.
Key findings
- Assuming 70% coverage, pre-adolescent HPV 16/18 vaccination alone reduced mean lifetime cervical cancer risk by 44% (range, 28–57%); screening three times per lifetime reduced risk by 21–33%.
- Combining vaccination with screening three times per lifetime gave a mean reduction of 56% (vaccination plus 3-visit conventional cytology) to 63% (vaccination plus 2-visit HPV DNA testing).
- At I$10 per vaccinated girl, vaccination followed by screening three times per lifetime using VIA cost I$290 per year of life saved (YLS); at I$20 per vaccinated girl, single-visit VIA screening alone cost I$60 per YLS compared with no intervention and became more cost-effective than vaccination alone.
- At a vaccine price of about $100 per dose (I$360 per vaccinated girl), vaccination was dominated by screening alone; combined vaccination plus single-visit VIA rose to I$7230 per YLS. If only HPV DNA testing was available, screening alone was dominated below I$50 per vaccinated girl, and combined vaccination plus two-visit HPV DNA testing three times per lifetime was I$1780 per YLS across that range.
Methods
- An individual-based stochastic microsimulation model of cervical carcinogenesis was calibrated to country-specific epidemiologic data from southeastern India, including HPV prevalence and type distribution from Tamil Nadu and cancer incidence from Bangalore and Chennai registries; a single birth cohort of girls entered at age 9 and was followed for life.
- Strategies compared were pre-adolescent HPV 16/18 vaccination before age 12, screening of women over age 30 by cytology, VIA, or HPV DNA testing with varying visits, frequency, and ages, and combined vaccination plus screening; base case assumed 70% coverage, screening at ages 35, 40, and 45, 3% annual discounting, societal perspective, and costs in I$2005.
- Outcomes were cancer incidence reduction, life expectancy gains, discounted lifetime costs, and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (I$/YLS), with one-way, two-way, and probabilistic sensitivity analyses across good-fitting parameter sets.
Limitations
- The paper states that model parameter uncertainty remains, especially about HPV natural history in older women, type-specific immunity after natural infection, and multiple HPV infections; lack of high-quality temporal trend data limited calibration to a single birth cohort.
- The authors state they used a microsimulation model rather than an HPV transmission model, so herd immunity was not directly modeled, and they describe the findings as exploratory and cost-effectiveness estimates as approximate; affordability was not equivalent to cost-effectiveness.
- Evident from the text: base-case results assume lifelong vaccine protection and 70% coverage, use cost estimates from a prior India screening analysis, and assume 15% loss to follow-up between visits; actual vaccine price and programmatic delivery costs in India were unknown.

“While our independent dynamic model (Kim et al, 2007b) has been previously used to include the herd immunity effects in an HPV vaccine policy analysis, sensitivity analyses that reduced incidence based on these findings, found the main policy results would be unlikely to change.”

What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites Kim et al, 2007b sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Methods (Dynamic model; page unavailable) say that projected reductions in HPV incidence, including herd-immunity effects, were used as inputs to the policy model. The Results report sensitivity analyses and the Discussion favours prioritising vaccination of girls, but our copy does not identify a sensitivity analysis that reduced incidence based on those herd-immunity findings or state that such an analysis left the main policy results unchanged.

The mechanism of cervical carcinogenesis does not fundamentally differ between countries.
“We assumed that the mechanism of cervical carcinogenesis does not fundamentally differ between countries; as such, initial natural history model estimates, and their plausible ranges, were based on the best available data regardless of specific setting.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Vaccinated girls have life-long protection against HPV 16 and 18.
“We also assumed vaccinated girls have life-long protection against HPV 16 and 18, but are subject to the same rate of infection with other high-risk HPV types as those who are not vaccinated.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-16, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-16 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
