Furthermore, the study results included the pathological regression rate (defined as the proportion of subjects with a pathological regression to CIN1 or normal tissue) at the 6th month across different age subgroups. Both the "≥20 and <30 years" subgroup and the "≥30 and <40 years" subgroup showed an increase of 15% to 20% in the pathological regression rate in the APL-1702 group compared to the placebo control group. No cervical cancer events were reported, suggesting a significant therapeutic potential of APL-1702 in the HSIL population aged 20 to 40 years.

Regarding HPV clearance rate, in the "≥20 and <30 years" age group, the APL-1702 group showed enhancements in the overall HPV clearance rate, HPV16-positive clearance rate, and HPV16/18-positive clearance rate compared to the placebo control group. The patients' number in the "<20 years" and "≥40 years" age groups were limited, thus the results in these age groups require a validation study with a larger sample size. Overall, APL-1702 not only facilitates the regression from HSIL to LSIL but also demonstrates the ability to induce clearance of high-risk HPV infections.
