Johns Hopkins has been conducting a Phase I clinical trial of a vaccine (not Gardasil) for patients with HPV+ tumors, though it sounds from the most recent postings (last year) that the trial has closed. These three threads have a lot of information about it.

April 2006: Husband dx by dentist with leukoplakia on tongue. Oral surgeon's biopsy 4/28/06: Moderate dysplasia; pathology report warned of possible "skip effect." ENT's excisional biopsy (got it all) 5/31/06: SCC in situ/small bit superficially invasive. Early detection saves lives.
