Predictors of the Therapeutic Response to Intralesional Bivalent HPV Vaccine in Wart Immunotherapy

Variable intralesional immunotherapies have recently been proposed as a means of achieving a successful eradication of recurrent and recalcitrant human papillomavirus (HPV)-induced cutaneous and anogenital warts. The bivalent HPV vaccine is one of the newly proposed immunotherapeutic agents. We inve...

The bivalent HPV vaccine is one of the newly proposed immunotherapeutic agents.

Heparinized blood samples were withdrawn from forty patients with multiple recurrent recalcitrant cutaneous and anogenital warts and forty matched healthy control subjects.
