[科技] 10年后宫颈癌疫苗批准进入大陆 (双语)

　　7月18日，英国医疗保健公司葛兰素史克（GSK）宣布，其预防宫颈癌的人乳头瘤病毒疫苗——"卉妍康"已获中国食药监局(CFDA)的上市许可。这标志着时隔十年在世界百余个国家广泛接种的人乳头瘤病毒疫苗，终于进入中国内地市场。

　　GSK, a British healthcare company, announced on Monday（July 18, 2016）that its HPV vaccine, Cervarix, has been approved by the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA), marking the first HPV vaccine to enter the Chinese mainland market.

　　"卉妍康"主要针对9 至25 岁的女性群体，尽管许多医学研究者认为该药都对25 岁以上的女性也有效果。据称该疫苗也可以预防男性肛门癌和阴茎癌，不过其功效随着接种疫苗者年龄的增长而逐渐削弱。

　　Cervarix mainly targets females aged between 9 and 25. Although many medical researchers hold that for women above the age of 25, the vaccine is still effective in preventing infection and cervical cancer. Males who take the vaccine can also be prevented from getting anal cancer and penile cancer. Its efficacy weakens as the vaccinated people grow older.

　　（HPV病毒）

　　2004 年，世卫组织指出，人乳头瘤病毒感染会导致宫颈癌。在15 岁至44岁的中国大陆女性中，宫颈癌在所有癌症的发病率中位居第二。每年新增宫颈癌患者高达13 万，占全世界总数的28%。

　　The WHO in 2004 stated that HPV infection is a necessary factor in causing cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is the second highest incidence of cancer for women between the ages of 15 and 44 in the Chinese mainland. Every year the mainland sees 130,000 new cases, accounting for 28% of the total amount worldwide.

　　现在市场上主要的两种HPV 疫苗︰一是葛兰素史克公司生产的"卉妍康"，主要用于对抗16 型和18型人乳头瘤病毒; 另外一个是默克集团生产的“加德西”（Gardasil），主要针对 6型、11型、16型 和18型人乳头瘤病毒 。2009 年，世卫组织建议把HPV 疫苗推广用于宫颈癌的一级预防。目前为止，已有超过170 个国家已经推广了这两种疫苗，大部分接种者已经证实该疫苗是安全有效的。该疫苗预计明年进入中国市场。

　　There are now two major HPV vaccines available on the market now: one is Cervarix, a product of GSK, which is against HPV 16 and 18; another, Gardasil, a product of Merck & Co, which is against HPV 6, 11, 16 and 18. In 2009, the WHO suggested the HPV vaccine should be employed for the primary prevention of cervical cancer. Over 170 countries so far have introduced these two vaccines which have proven to be effective and safe for most vaccinated people. The vaccine is expected to hit the Chinese market next year.
