Human papillomavirus testing using HPV APTIMA® assay and an external cellularity control in self-collected samples. J Med Virol 2023; 95:e29283. [PMID: 38088528 DOI: 10.1002/jmv.29283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023]
Abstract
In cervical cancer screening programs, the detection of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is now widely implemented on physician-collected samples and has expanded to include self-collected samples. The use of a cellularity control (CC) is needed to reduce false-negative HPV results. An external mRNA CC for the HPV APTIMA® assay was assessed for its analytical performance and the results were compared with both cervix cytobrush samples taken by physicians and self-collected vaginal samples from 148 women. The performance of the CC was adjusted to control for the presence of cellular mRNA in the ThinPrep® and Multitest® transport media. This CC is user-friendly but implies to perform two independent assays on PANTHER® automate. Self-collected vaginal sampling gives a lower median CC results (13.2 vs. 16.9 min) but a higher risk of negative CC results (3.3 vs. 0%). The usefulness of the CC for the HR-HPV assay may be optimized by the definition of a threshold for a minimum cell number to be tested to increase confidence in HPV-negative results. The systematic use of an RNA CC increases confidence for HPV RNA assays on self-collected vaginal samples.

Abstract
More specific screening systems for cervical cancer may become necessary as the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine becomes more widespread. Although p16/Ki-67 dual-staining cytology has several advantages, it requires advanced diagnostic skills. Here, we developed an automated on-chip immunostaining method using a microfluidic device. An electroactive microwell array (EMA) microfluidic device with patterned thin-film electrodes at the bottom of each microwell was used for single-cell capture by dielectrophoresis. Immunostaining and dual staining for p16/Ki-67 were performed on diagnosed liquid cytology samples using the EMA device. The numbers of p16/Ki-67 dual-stained cells captured by the EMA device were determined and compared among the cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) lesion samples. Seven normal, fifteen CIN grade 3, and seven CIN grade 2 samples were examined. The percentage of dual-positive cells was 18.6% in the CIN grade 2 samples and 23.6% in the CIN grade 3 samples. The percentages of dual-positive staining increased significantly as the severity of the cervical lesions increased. p16/Ki67 dual immunostaining using the EMA device is as sensitive as the conventional method of confirming the histopathological diagnosis of cervical samples. This system enables a quantified parallel analysis at the individual cell level.
