The vaccine manufacturer did not submit clinical trial data on men to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for licensure consideration. The vaccine is currently being tested in men, which may change approved indications in the future. However, for the present HPV vaccine is only FDA approved and ACIP recommended for use in females 9 through 26 years of age.
