Mechanism of action

Cervavac is designed to induce cellular and humoral immune responses against HPV-infected cells, particularly those expressing HPV16 and HPV18 antigens that are associated with cervical cancer development. As a therapeutic vaccine administered in a three-dose regimen, it aims to boost the body's own immune system to recognize and destroy existing HPV-positive lesions and cancer cells, rather than prevent initial infection like prophylactic HPV vaccines.
