Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a known cause of a subset of head and neck cancers (HNCs). In the last two decades, the proportion of HNCs attributable to HPV infection has increased worldwide, notably the oropharyngeal cancers. However, the trend of HPV-related HNC burden is not clearly understood yet in China. Thus, the absolute burden of HPV-related head and neck cancers in China (BROADEN-China) will be conducted to estimate the proportion of HNCs attributable to HPV infection, per anatomic site, by genotype, in three time periods (2008-2009, 2013-2014 and 2018-2019). METHODS AND ANALYSIS BROADEN-China is a nationwide, multisite, cross-sectional study. A stratified, multistage, non-randomised cluster sampling method will be used to select 2601 patients with HNC from 14 hospitals across seven regions, based on population density in China. Patients with formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples collected prior to treatment induction during three time periods will be included, and factors (eg, smoking status, alcohol consumption, betel nut chewing, Epstein-Barr virus, teeth loss, etc) associated with HNC will be assessed. HPV testing (HPV-DNA, HPV-mRNA and p16INK4a immunohistochemistry) and histological diagnosis of the tissue samples will be conducted at a central laboratory.The study protocol and all required documents have been submitted for review and approval to the Independent Ethics Committees of all the participating sites. The informed consent was waived for all participants and all the recorded data will be treated as confidential.We have included 14 hospitals as our participating sites, of which Henan Cancer Hospital is the leading site. The study has been approved by the independent ethics committees of the leading site on 3 December 2020. The other 13 participating site names of ethics committee and IRB that have approved this study.

Accuracy of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Testing on Urine and Vaginal Self-Samples Compared to Clinician-Collected Cervical Sample in Women Referred to Colposcopy. Viruses 2023; 15:1889. [PMID: 37766295 PMCID: PMC10537107 DOI: 10.3390/v15091889] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In the context of cervical cancer prevention, where human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is pivotal, HPV testing is replacing Pap Smear in primary screening. This transition offers an opportunity for integrating self-sampling to enhance coverage. We evaluated the accuracy of HPV testing using self-collected urine and vaginal samples, comparing them to physician-collected cervical swabs. From a cohort of 245 women with abnormal cytology, we collected self-sampled vaginal, urine, and clinician-administered cervical specimens. Employing Anyplex™II HPV28 assay, outcomes revealed HPV positivity rates of 75.1% (cervical), 78.4% (vaginal), and 77.1% (urine). Significant, hr-HPV detection concordance was observed between self-taken cervical samples and clinical counterparts (k = 0.898 for vaginal; k = 0.715 for urine). This study extends beyond accuracy, highlighting self-collected sample efficacy in detecting high-grade cervical lesions. The insight underscores self-sampling's role in bolstering participation and aligns with WHO's goal to eliminate cervical cancer by 2030.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are often asymptomatic, but some of the >200 HPV genotypes confer a high risk for precancerous cervical lesions and cervical cancer. Current clinical management of HPV infections relies on reliable nucleic acid testing detection and genotyping. We prospectively compared nucleic acid extraction without and with prior centrifugation enrichment for detecting and genotyping HPV in cervical swabs with atypical squamous or glandular cells. Consecutive swabs were analyzed from 45 patients with atypical squamous or glandular cells. Nucleic acids were extracted in parallel using three procedures, Abbott-M2000, Roche-MagNA-Pure-96 Large-Volume Kit without (Roche-MP-large) and with prior centrifugation (Roche-MP-large/spin) and tested using Seegene-Anyplex-II HPV28. In total, 54 HPV-genotypes were detected in 45 samples, 51 by Roche-MP-large/spin, 48 by Abbott-M2000 and 42 by Roche-MP-large. The overall concordance was 80% for detecting any HPV and 74% for specific HPV-genotypes. Roche-MP-large/spin and Abbott-M2000 showed the highest concordance for HPV detection (88.9%; kappa 0.78), and genotyping (88.5%). Two and more HPV-genotypes were detected in 15 samples, often with one HPV being more abundant. Dilution series confirmed the specific detection of multiple HPV-genotypes and their relative abundance. In 285 consecutive follow-up samples extracted by Roche-MP-large/spin, the top three detected genotypes were the high-risk HPV16, HPV53, HPV56 and the low-risk HPV42, HPV54 and HPV61. Rate and breadth of HPV detection in cervical swabs depends on extraction protocols being highest after centrifugation/enrichment. As multivalent HPV-vaccine coverage increases, detecting the evolving HPV virome depends on improved extraction and broader genotype coverage.

Abstract
Purpose High-risk Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the most important cause of cervical cancer. The highest burden of disease is seen in Low- and Low-Middle-Income Countries (LMIC). Several new HPV screening assays have been developed for high-risk HPV (hr-HPV) testing. We compared the performance and adequacy of three HPV genotyping assays on samples from a population of rural women in south-central Ethiopia. Patients and Methods One hundred and ten cervical swabs from rural women screened for HPV were assayed. HPV DNA was tested using MPG-Luminex Assay, Anyplex II HPV HR Detection, and EUROArray HPV. MPG-Luminex Assay was used as a reference method to compute the sensitivity and specificity of the two commercial assays in detecting hr-HPV infections. Results Of the 110 samples, MPG-Luminex Assay found 18.2% positive for the 14 hr-HPV and 7.3% for the probable hr-HPV genotypes. Anyplex™ II HPV HR Detection assay and EUROArray HPV Assay identified 21.82% and 12.7% samples, respectively, for the 14 hr-HPVs and both 7.3% for the probable hr-HPV genotypes (κ=0.734). Among the 14 hr-HPV genotypes, the genotype-specific agreement of the three HPV genotyping assays was moderate or better for HPV16, 31, 35, 39, 52, 56, 66 and 68. The aggregated sensitivity in detecting the 14 hr-HPV infections of Anyplex™ II HPV HR Detection and EUROArray HPV assays was high, 100% and 70%, respectively. The specificities of Anyplex™ II HPV HR Detection and EUROArray HPV were 95.6% and 100%, respectively. Conclusion The three evaluated assays showed similar analytical performance in the detection of hr-HPV infections and moderate or better concordance in HPV genotyping. This study is part of the ongoing cluster-randomized trial that has been registered in clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03281135) on September 13, 2017.

Evaluation of the Xpert® HPV assay in the detection of Human Papillomavirus in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded oropharyngeal carcinomas. Oral Oncol 2017; 72:117-122. [PMID: 28797447 DOI: 10.1016/j.oraloncology.2017.07.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2017] [Revised: 05/26/2017] [Accepted: 07/14/2017] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The increasing incidence of HPV-related Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OPSCC) and the improved survival of HPV-positive OPSCC highlight the need for effective tools in evaluating HPV status on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) cancers. To date, there is no agreement regarding the most appropriate method for HPV testing on FFPE materials. We aimed to investigate the performance of the Xpert® HPV assay (Cepheid) on crude lysates from OPSCC FFPE tissues. MATERIALS AND METHODS Crude lysates were obtained by proteinase K digestion of FFPE tissues that had already been analyzed by the INNO-LiPA HPV assay and p16ink4a immunostaining. RESULTS 159 FFPE OPSCCs were evaluated. All the samples provided valid results with the Xpert, whereas three samples (1.8%) were invalid using the INNO-LiPA. Among the remaining 156 cases, 65 (41.7%) were concordantly positive and 87 (55.8%) concordantly negative (raw agreement 0.97, 95% CI: 0.93-0.99; Cohen K 0.95, 95% CI: 0.90-0.99). Type-specific data for the cases that were positive by both methods were completely concordant. Three samples were HPV16-positive with Xpert but negative with INNO-LiPA, while one OPSCC tested negative with Xpert and positive with INNO-LiPA. A very good agreement was observed between the Xpert and the p16 results, which was slightly higher than that for INNO-LiPA (Cohen K 0.87vs. 0.85). CONCLUSION The Xpert HPV assay appears to be a very good method for HPV detection and genotyping on FFPE OPSCCs, and requires no prior purification of nucleic acids. This assay showed a very good agreement with INNO-LiPA and p16 findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-risk type human papilloma virus (HPV) is the most important cause of cervical cancer. Recently, real-time polymerase chain reaction and reverse blot hybridization assay-based HPV DNA genotyping kits are developed. So, we compared the performances of different three HPV genotyping kits using different analytical principles and methods. METHODS Two hundred positive and 100 negative cervical swab specimens were used. DNA was extracted and all samples were tested by the MolecuTech REBA HPV-ID, Anyplex II HPV28 Detection, and HPVDNAChip. Direct sequencing was performed as a reference method for confirming high-risk HPV genotypes 16, 18, 45, 52, and 58. RESULTS Although high-level agreement results were observed in negative samples, three kits showed decreased interassay agreement as screening setting in positive samples. Comparing the genotyping results, three assays showed acceptable sensitivity and specificity for the detection of HPV 16 and 18. Otherwise, various sensitivities showed in the detection of HPV 45, 52, and 58. CONCLUSIONS The three assays had dissimilar performance of HPV screening capacity and exhibited moderate level of concordance in HPV genotyping. These discrepant results were unavoidable due to difference in type-specific analytical sensitivity and lack of standardization; therefore, we suggested that the efforts to standardization of HPV genotyping kits and adjusting analytical sensitivity would be important for the best clinical performance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent infection with high risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) is strongly associated with cervical cancer. Normal cervical cells may also harbor hrHPV, and detection of early hrHPV infection may minimize risk of cervical cancer development. This study aimed to compare two commercial HPV genotyping assays that may affordable for early screening in a limited-resource setting in Bandung, Indonesia. MATERIALS AND METHODS DNA from cervical biopsies with histologically confirmed as squamous cell cervical cacinoma were HPV genotyped by Linear Assay 1 (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) or Linear Assay 2 (Digene HPV Genotyping RH Test, Qiagen Gaithersburg, MD). In a subset of samples of each group, HPV genotype results were then compared. RESULTS Of 28 samples genotyped by linear assay 1, 22 (78.6%) demonstrated multiple infections with HPV-16 and other hrHPV types 18, 45 and/or 52. In another set of 38 samples genotyped by linear assay 2, 28 (68.4%) were mostly single infections by hrHPV type 16 or 18. Interestingly, 4 samples that had been tested by both kits showed discordant results. CONCLUSIONS In a limited-resource area such as in Indonesia, country with a high prevalence of HPV infection a reliable cervical screening test in general population for early hrHPV detection is needed. Geographical variation in HPV genotyping result might have impacts for HPV prevalence and molecular epidemiology as the distribution in HPV genotypes should give clear information to assess the impact of HPV prophylactic vaccines.

Abstract
The novel HPV Direct Flow CHIP commercial system for Human Papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping is based on rapid PCR and automatic reverse dot blot hybridization to genotype-specific probes, allowing the detection of 36 HPV genotypes. This study examined the performance of HPV Direct Flow CHIP in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples (n= 99). Each sample was analyzed both by Direct PCR, using crude cell extracts without DNA purification, and by conventional PCR, using purified DNA. Pair-wise analysis of the results demonstrated strong concordance between the results obtained with the two protocols, although a slightly higher rate of multiple infections was detected by conventional PCR. In summary, HPV Direct Flow CHIP achieves effective HPV detection from FFPE samples with both Direct PCR and Conventional PCR protocols.

Abstract
The novel SPF10 real-time PCR assay allows the simultaneous amplification and detection of the HPV target. That way, LiPA analysis of the HPV-negative samples can be avoided, reducing workload and cost. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the SPF10 real-time PCR in combination with the LiPA assay for HPV detection and typing in cervical samples. Thirty-nine cervical samples were subjected to the SPF10 conventional PCR in combination with the LiPA assay. Subsequently, the SPF10 real-time PCR was performed to enable the comparison between the SPF10 conventional and the real-time PCR results. In case of discrepancy, the samples were subjected to the CLART HPV2 assay. As a result, 27 out of 39 samples were identified as HPV-positive by the SPF10 real-time PCR and were genotyped further by the LiPA assay. Twenty samples (74.1%) showed an absolute agreement between the conventional and real-time SPF10 PCR (concordant), three (11.1%) displayed additional or fewer types (compatible), two (7.4%) did not show any similarity between both assays (discordant) and the remaining two (7.4%) were LiPA-negative. The two assays showed an excellent strength of agreement for individual (κ=0.932) and multiple genotype detection (κ=0.834). In conclusion, the two SPF10 PCR methods are comparable. Therefore, the SPF10 real-time PCR with subsequent LiPA could be used for the detection and genotyping of HPV in cervical samples.

Abstract
Financial and operational constraints limit low-resource countries in the screening of high-risk genital human papillomaviruses (HR-HPV), the etiological agents of cervical cancer. With its simple storage, conservation and shipping, dried cervical sample (DCS) could represent an efficient tool. The aim of the study was to evaluate the reliability of HPV genotyping from DCS. Cervical samples were obtained from 50 women infected with HIV-1 in Côte d'Ivoire. After DNA extraction from both DCS and matched liquid cervical samples (LCS), HPV genotyping was performed and the concordance of genotyping results was evaluated. HPV prevalence was 88% in LCS and 78% in DCS. Kappa statistic was 0.51 for the presence of any genotype (95% confidence interval, 0.25-0.77) and 0.73 for HR-HPV (0.45-0.99). Out of 50 samples, 45 were HPV-positive for DCS and/or LCS, and HR-HPV were detected in 37 samples (74%) with 36 HR-HPV multiple infections. Any genotype and HR genotype identification was concordant/compatible in 86% (43/50) and 88% (44/50) of samples, respectively. In most instances, kappa statistics for detection of type-specific HPV was over 0.6 (including HPV-16, -18, -31, -33). An excellent agreement (kappa statistic ≥ 0.81) was found for eight genotypes (HPV-6, -31, -35, -40, -56, -58, -66, and -82). In spite of interfering factors (multiple infections, different HPV loads, amplification competition, different inputs), DCS and LCS led to concordant/compatible results in most cases. DCS could represent an efficient tool for epidemiological field studies in resource-limited settings, and more importantly for improving the screening coverage and care management in women infected with HPV.

Performance of the linear array HPV genotyping test on paired cytological and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded cervical samples. J Mol Diagn 2013; 15:373-9. [PMID: 23523605 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmoldx.2013.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2012] [Revised: 01/23/2013] [Accepted: 01/30/2013] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Detection and genotyping of human papillomavirus (HPV) from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples may be difficult when using assays based on amplification of large fragments. The objective of the present study was to investigate the performance of the Linear Array HPV Genotyping Test (Linear Array) on FFPE cervical cone biopsy specimens using paired cytologic samples obtained immediately before the conization as a criterion standard. Thirty-nine samples of grade 2 or higher cervical intraepithelial neoplasia were selected; all of the corresponding cytological samples were positive by the Linear Array and had a report of atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance or worse. A valid Linear Array test result was obtained for 38 FFPE specimens (97.4%, 95% CI 88.0 to 99.9). Specifically, 34 were HPV-positive (89.5%, 95% CI 76.5 to 96.9) and 4 were HPV-negative (10.5%, 95% CI 3.4 to 23.5). The overall agreement of the results obtained for the cytologic and histologic paired samples was good (Cohen's κ = 0.85, SE = 0.082, P = 0.000). Further analysis of samples with negative or invalid Linear Array test results, both modifying the nucleic acids extraction protocol and using the INNO-LiPA assay, suggested that failure of the Linear Array test in HPV detection from tissues was probably due to DNA fragmentation. Parallel analysis of paired FFPE and cytologic samples is extremely useful for evaluation of the efficiency of PCR-based assays in HPV detection and genotyping from tissue samples. In the present study, false-negative results were obtained in a limited percentage of cases, our data depicting the successful performance of the Linear Array test on FFPE samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The need for accurate genotyping of human papillomavirus (HPV) infections is becoming increasingly important as HPV is the primary cause of cervical cancer worldwide. The matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry-based restriction fragment mass polymorphism (RFMP) assay provides accurate, broad-spectrum, high-throughput genotyping of HPV. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the clinical performance of the RFMP assay compared to a commercially available Roche linear array HPV genotyping test (LA) for detecting and genotyping of HPV. STUDY DESIGN The RFMP assay and the LA were compared for detecting and genotyping HPV among a cohort of 244 liquid-based cytology samples. RESULTS Overall, 216 specimens (93.1%, κ = 0.86) generated concordant results for the presence or absence of high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) by the two assays. The RFMP assay and the LA assay generated concordant, compatible, and discordant genotyping results for 79.3, 9.9, and 10.8%, respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of RFMP and LA for the cervical lesions of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) were similar, at 92.9 and 85.0% (RFMP) and 92.9 and 83.8% (LA), respectively. In addition, the odds ratio for SCC with HR-HPV positivity estimated by the RFMP assay (73.7, 95% CI: 8.9-3173.3) was higher than the LA assay (67.0, 95% CI: 8.2-2887.0). CONCLUSIONS The RFMP and the LA assays were highly comparable with regard to detection and genotyping analysis of HPV. The sensitivity and specificity of RFMP assay for the detection of HR-HPV in various levels of cervical lesions seems to be valuable in the monitoring of HPV-associated cervical cancer.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been identified as the major cause of cervical cancer worldwide and HPV DNA testing is recommended in primary cervical cancer screening. Several molecular tests for detection/typing of HPV DNA with different sensitivity and specificity are commercially available. The present study compared the performance of the Abbott RealTime High Risk HPV assay and the Genomica HPV Clinical Array CLART2 in 78 specimens (63 cervical smears and 15 rectal/urethral swabs).The typing results of the Genomica assay were in absolute agreement with each of the four possible result categories of the Abbott assay (HPV16, HPV18, Other HR HPV, not detected) in 87.2% (68/78) of the samples, with a Cohen' kappa agreement coefficient for every HR type of 0.62 (95% CI: 0.39-0.85), higher in cervical swabs (k = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.50-0.99) than in rectal/urethral swabs (k = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.00-0.82). There was an excellent agreement of the Genomica results with those of Abbott in cervical samples harbored HPV single infection (100% agreement). Nonetheless, both methods may lose sensitivity for detecting HPV types in multiple infections, giving discordant results (10/78). This underlines the importance of establishing the analytical sensitivity in HPV type detection in single and multiple HPV infections. In rectal/urethral swabs, 5 of 15 (33%) discordant cases were observed, most of which became compatible when the Genomica assay was performed starting from nucleic acid extracted with the Abbott m2000sp system. These results suggest that nucleic extraction based on the magnetic beads technique is suitable for HPV DNA detection in urethral/rectal swabs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the CINtec PLUS assay (mtm laboratories), a new immunocytochemical method for the simultaneous detection of p16(INK4a) and Ki-67, in liquid-based cervico-vaginal cytology, investigating the association of the dual staining with HPV infection and genotyping as well as cytological and histological abnormalities. METHODS 140 women with a cervico-vaginal sample obtained immediately before the colposcopy were enrolled. This cytological sample was used for HPV testing with the Linear Array HPV Genotyping Test, the dual staining with the CINtec PLUS kit and the morphology assessment. RESULTS Cytology results were 38 NILM, 16 ASC-US, 32L-SIL, 54H-SIL or worse. 113 patients also had a colposcopy-guided biopsy, classified as 14 negative, 35 CIN1, 24 CIN2, 37 CIN3, 3 invasive SCC. A strong association between p16/Ki-67 and HR-HPV infection was found (COR=6.86, 95% CI: 1.84-31.14). Importantly, the association between p16/Ki-67 positivity and HPV16 and/or 18 infection was 2-fold stronger compared to that with the infection by other HR-HPV types (COR=9.92, 95% CI: 2.39-47.77 vs COR=4.20, 95% CI: 0.99-20.87). In addition, p16/Ki-67 positivity rate significantly increased with the severity of the cytological and histological abnormalities (p<0.05 in both cases). p16/Ki-67 positivity resulted strongly associated with a CIN2+ diagnosis (COR=10.86 95% CI: 4.16-29.12). CONCLUSIONS This preliminary study evidenced that p16/Ki-67 immunostaining might have a relevant clinical role, since the dual staining was significantly associated with HR-HPV infection, particularly with HPV 16 and 18, and the increasing grade of the cervical lesions, the positivity for this biomarker being strongly related to the presence of a CIN2+ lesion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anal human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is very common in men having sex with men (MSM), but the available data on its burden and characteristics mainly concern HIV-infected individuals. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the prevalence, spectrum of genotypes, and determinants of the anal HPV infection in metropolitan HIV-1 uninfected MSM. STUDY DESIGN A cohort of 258 MSM (median age 32 years, IQR 26-39) enrolled at an STI Clinic was screened for anal HPV infection using a highly sensitive PCR-based genotyping method. Medical history and behavioral data were collected. RESULTS Overall, 74.8% of the MSM were HPV-positive, with 56.2% of the participants being infected by high-risk (HR) types. A multiple infection was detected in 65.3% of the HPV-positive MSM, with up to 10 different HPV types detected in the same sample. A broad spectrum of infecting HPV types was observed, with 36 different types found overall and HPV16 representing the most common type (17.8%). The lifetime and recent number of sexual partners as well as having receptive anal sex were significantly associated with the anal HPV infection, confirming the role of sexual behavior in risk of HPV infection. However, neither younger age at first intercourse nor inconsistent use of condom was significantly associated with the infection. CONCLUSIONS The present findings highlight the need to create a more significant awareness about the risk of anal HPV infection among HIV-uninfected MSM and warrant the investigation of possible anal intraepithelial lesions, particularly in view of the increasing anal cancer incidence in high-risk populations.
