Background / Objectives

Thirteen years have passed since the publication of the first models of HPV vaccination. Since then around a hundred economic models of HPV vaccination have been published, along with many models presenting epidemiological but not economic outcomes. An array of methodological options are available to model HPV vaccination and several best practice guidelines have been published, but are still not well known or adhered to.
 


Methods

Previous frameworks and guidelines for modelling of HPV vaccination were reviewed. A comprehensive set of reporting requirements were drafted with input from other members of the HPV-FRAME consortium
 


Results

Conclusion

The draft HPV-FRAME reporting requirements for parameters, calibration targets and validation outputs for both female-only and gender-neutral models of universal HPV vaccination will be presented. There will be the opportunity to give feedback both during the session and afterwards, to be taken into account in future iterations of the draft framework.
