Vaccine
For Cervical Cancer
Looks Effective
Researchers
say a second experimental cervical cancer vaccine appears to broadly
protect against infection and risky precancerous conditions for
more than two years, affirming scientists' belief that the disease
could be progressively eradicated in a global campaign much like
smallpox and polio.
The study,
which was conducted in the United States and Brazil, showed patients
given the vaccine sustained a high level of immune response against
the virus that spreads cervical cancer, and that it would prevent
infection for many years. Whether revaccination ultimately would
be needed must be determined by an additional, longer trial, researchers
said.
