Description

A virus best known for cervical cancer also drives cancers of the throat, anus, and genitals, and a vaccine now targets it. Mary Mallon and co-authors reviewed which virus types appear in those other cancers in this 2025 paper. The setting is the United Kingdom and Ireland. Since 2019 both have used a nine-type vaccine for prevention.

The reviewers searched two large medical databases and screened over four thousand papers. Thirty studies passed the full checks and gave data for extraction. Bias was scored with a standard tool, and pooled results were computed in statistical software. The types found tell whether the current vaccine covers the strains behind these cancers locally. That answer shapes screening and vaccine policy.
