Young adult cancer survivors are at risk for subsequent human papillomavirus (HPV)-related malignancies. High-risk sexual behavior increases risk for HPV acquisition; HPV vaccination protects against infection. We aimed to determine the prevalence of sexual behaviors, factors related to high-risk sexual behaviors, and the relationship between sexual behaviors and HPV vaccine non-initiation among survivors. Survivors at comprehensive cancer centers, aged 18–26 years and 1–5 years post-treatment, reported sexual behaviors and HPV vaccine initiation (i.e., ≥1 dose). Multivariable logistic regression was performed to calculate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) for factors associated with high-risk sexual behaviors (age at first intercourse <16 years, ≥3 lifetime sexual partners, or condom use ≤50% of the time) and to explore the relationship between sexual behaviors and vaccine non-initiation. Of the 312 participants (48.1% female, median age at cancer diagnosis 17.2y and at survey 20.9y) sexual intercourse was reported by 63.1%. Of those reporting intercourse, 74.6% reported high-risk sexual behavior. Factors related to high-risk sexual behavior included currently dating/partnered (OR=4.39, 95%CI 2.5–7.7, P<.001) and perceived susceptibility to HPV (OR=1.76, 95%CI 1.3–2.5, P<.001). Most survivors (75.3%) reported HPV vaccine non-initiation; sexual behaviors were not associated with vaccine non-initiation (P=.4). Many survivors participate in high-risk sexual behaviors, yet HPV vaccine initiation rates are low. Factors related to high-risk sexual behaviors can inform interventions to reduce risk for HPV acquisition among survivors. Cancer survivors participate in sexual behaviors that increase risk for HPV acquisition and would benefit from vaccination.
