Cervarix is a vaccine against certain types of cancer-causing human papillomavirus (HPV).Cervarix is designed to prevent infection from HPV types 16 and 18 that cause about 70% of cervical cancer cases. These types also cause most HPV-induced genital and head and neck cancers. Additionally some cross-reactive protection against virus strains 45 and 31 were shown in clinical trials.
