Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
One participant in the Standard group did not respond to any of the vaccine HPV types. Eleven participants in the Alternate group either did not receive Dose 3 or were out of window, compared with only one participant in the Standard group.
