Treatment characteristics, HPV genotype distribution and risk of subsequent disease among women with high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in Europe: A systematic literature review. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2024; 300:129-140. [PMID: 39002399 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.06.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), a premalignant lesion of the uterine cervix, is caused by persistent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. CIN can be identified through screening programs and high-grade CIN is usually treated by ablation or excision. This study aimed to summarize the clinical management and outcomes among women with high-grade CIN in Europe. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted to identify treatment methods and their frequency of use, report HPV genotype prevalence and distribution and summarize patterns for subsequent lesions after primary treatment, among women with high-grade CIN in Europe. Embase®, MEDLINE® and Cochrane databases were searched (1st January 2012 to 30th August 2022), along with relevant conference proceedings (2018-2022), inclusive. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) compliant methodology was adopted. Eligibility criteria included non-immunosuppressed female patients with CIN2+ from Europe (published in English). RESULTS In total, n = 55 studies were included. CIN excisional therapy was the most received treatment approach (15.8-100 %, loop electrosurgical excision procedure/large loop excision of the transformation zone most common), followed by ablative therapies (1-43.3 %, cold coagulation most common). Other approaches included 'wait and watch' (4.8-52.6 %) and hysterectomy (4.8-16.2 %). HPV positivity rates ranged from 67.8-100 % pre-conization and 4.7-32.8 % post-conization. The most prevalent HPV genotypes reported (both pre- and post-treatment) were HPV16 and HPV18. In patients who received excisional or ablative procedures subsequent CIN was most frequently diagnosed ≤6 months after treatment. The overall rate of subsequent CIN reported was 0.5-20.9 %. CONCLUSION Conization and ablation were the most common techniques, however, these procedures were associated with sub-optimal outcomes. Close clinical follow-up is important due to the risk of subsequent CIN or invasive cancer. This review serves as a reference point for the comparison of future treatment patterns as they evolve across Europe, following improved implementation of prophylactic HPV vaccination and screening.

Abstract
PURPOSE The Swedish InfCareHIV cohort was established in 2003 to ensure equal and effective care of people living with HIV (PLHIV) and enable long-term follow-up. InfCareHIV functions equally as a decision support system as a quality registry, ensuring up-to-date data reported in real time. PARTICIPANTS InfCareHIV includes data on >99% of all people with diagnosed HIV in Sweden and up to now 13 029 have been included in the cohort. InfCareHIV includes data on HIV-related biomarkers and antiretroviral therapies (ART) and also on demographics, patient-reported outcome measures and patient-reported experience measures. FINDINGS TO DATE Sweden was in 2015 the first country to reach the UNAIDS (United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS)/WHO's 90-90-90 goals. Late diagnosis of HIV infection was identified as a key problem in the Swedish HIV-epidemic, and low-level HIV viraemia while on ART associated with all-cause mortality. Increased HIV RNA load in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) despite suppression of the plasma viral load was found in 5% of PLHIV, a phenomenon referred to as 'CSF viral escape'. Dolutegravir-based treatment in PLHIV with pre-existing nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-mutations was non-inferior to protease inhibitor-based regimens. An increase of transmitted drug resistance was observed in the InfCareHIV cohort. Lower efficacy for protease inhibitors was not due to lower adherence to treatment. Incidence of type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance was high in the ageing HIV population. Despite ART, the risk of infection-related cancer as well as lung cancer was increased in PLHIV compared with HIV-negative. PLHIV were less likely successfully treated for cervical precancer and more likely to have human papillomavirus types not included in current HPV vaccines. Self-reported sexual satisfaction in PLHIV is improving and is higher in women than men. FUTURE PLANS InfCareHIV provides a unique base to study and further improve long-term treatment outcomes, comorbidity management and health-related quality of life in people with HIV in Sweden.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess failure after treatment of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+) by HIV status and human papillomavirus (HPV) type. DESIGN A population-based register study. METHODS The Swedish National HIV Registry, the Swedish Population Registry and the Swedish National Cervical Screening Registry were linked to identify all women in Stockholm and Gothenburg counties (Sweden) living with HIV and diagnosed with CIN2+ sometime between 1983 and 2014 (n = 179). HIV-negative controls with CIN2+, were matched (2 : 1) for country of birth. CIN2+ biopsies were retrieved from biobanks and genotyped. Absolute risk and adjusted odds ratios (adjOR) of treatment failure by HIV status given HPV type (HPV16/18 vs. non-HPV16/18) were calculated. RESULTS HPV16 (32%) and HPV35 (24%) dominated in women living with HIV (WLWH) with failure, HPV35 mainly in women born in sub-Saharan Africa (67%). The absolute risk of failure in women with HPV16/18 was 26% [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 14-44] in WLWH and 12% in HIV-negative (95% CI 7-19). The absolute risk of failure in women with non-HPV16/18 was 20% (95% CI 12-31) in WLWH and 5% in HIV-negative (95% CI 2-11). WLWH with non-HPV16/18 were six times more likely to fail than HIV-negative (adjOR 6.1, 95% CI 2.0-18.6). CONCLUSION HPV35, not included in current HPV vaccines, was the second most common type in WLWH with failure. WLWH with non-HPV16/18 were six times more likely to fail than HIV-negative. This could have implications for surveillance and vaccination post CIN2+ treatment, particularly in WLWH from sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract
Despite being highly preventable, cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer and cause of cancer death in women globally. In low-income countries, cervical cancer is often the leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome are at a particularly high risk of cervical cancer because of an impaired immune response to human papillomavirus, the obligate cause of virtually all cervical cancers. Globally, approximately 1 in 20 cervical cancers is attributable to HIV; in sub-Saharan Africa, approximately 1 in 5 cervical cancers is due to HIV. Here, the authors provide a critical appraisal of the evidence to date on the impact of HIV disease on cervical cancer risk, describe key methodologic issues, and frame the key outstanding research questions, especially as they apply to ongoing global efforts for prevention and control of cervical cancer. Expanded efforts to integrate HIV care with cervical cancer prevention and control, and vice versa, could assist the global effort to eliminate cervical cancer as a public health problem.

A Framework for Cervical Cancer Elimination in Low-and-Middle-Income Countries: A Scoping Review and Roadmap for Interventions and Research Priorities. Front Public Health 2021; 9:670032. [PMID: 34277540 PMCID: PMC8281011 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2021.670032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2021] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The World Health Organization announced an ambitious call for cervical cancer elimination worldwide. With existing prevention and treatment modalities, cervical cancer elimination is now within reach for high-income countries. Despite limited financing and capacity constraints in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs), prevention and control efforts can be supported through integrated services and new technologies. We conducted this scoping review to outline a roadmap toward cervical cancer elimination in LMICs and highlight evidence-based interventions and research priorities to accelerate cervical cancer elimination. We reviewed and synthesized literature from 2010 to 2020 on primary and secondary cervical cancer prevention strategies. In addition, we conducted expert interviews with gynecologic and infectious disease providers, researchers, and LMIC health officials. Using these data, we developed a logic model to summarize the current state of science and identified evidence gaps and priority research questions for each prevention strategy. The logic model for cervical cancer elimination maps the needs for improved collaboration between policy makers, production and supply, healthcare systems, providers, health workers, and communities. The model articulates responsibilities for stakeholders and visualizes processes to increase access to and coverage of prevention methods. We discuss the challenges of contextual factors and highlight innovation needs. Effective prevention methods include HPV vaccination, screening using visual inspection and HPV testing, and thermocoagulation. However, vaccine coverage remains low in LMICs. New strategies, including single-dose vaccination could enhance impact. Loss to follow-up and treatment delays could be addressed by improved same-day screen-and-treat technologies. We provide a practical framework to guide cervical cancer elimination in LMICs. The scoping review highlights existing and innovative strategies, unmet needs, and collaborations required to achieve elimination across implementation contexts.

Antiretroviral Therapy and Detection of High-grade Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN2+) at Post-CIN Management Follow-up Among Women Living With Human Immunodeficiency Virus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Clin Infect Dis 2021; 71:e540-e548. [PMID: 32162657 DOI: 10.1093/cid/ciaa238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2019] [Accepted: 03/10/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the association of antiretroviral therapy (ART), CD4+ count and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) plasma viral load (PVL) on high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+) detection at follow-up after CIN management among women living with HIV (WLHIV). METHODS Medline, Embase, Global Health, and PubMed were searched from 1 January 1996 to 15 January 2020. Eligible studies investigated the association of ART, CD4+ count, or HIV PVL on histology-confirmed CIN2+ detection at follow-up. Summary estimates were obtained using random-effects meta-analyses; heterogeneity was examined using I2 statistic. PROSPERO registration: CRD42018115631. RESULTS Eight studies representing 9 populations were identified, including 1452 WLHIV followed between 6 and 33 months post-CIN management. Pooled data from 8 populations (n = 1408) suggested weak evidence of a decreased risk of CIN2+ detection at follow-up among ART users compared to ART-naive women (crude odds ratio [cOR] = 0.70, 95% confidence interval [CI]: .36-1.36; I2 = 64.5%, P = .006; adjusted risk ratio [aRR] from 3 studies = 0.66, 95% CI: .20-2.24; I2 = 78.7%, P = .009). A significant association was observed in high-income countries (cOR = 0.24, 95% CI: .13-.45; I2 = 0.0%, P = .77) but not in low and middle-income countries (cOR = 1.13, 95% CI: .67-1.92; I2 = 18.8%, P = .30).In 3 populations, ART users with HIV PVL <50 copies/ml were less likely to have CIN2+ detection at follow-up (vs ≥50 copies/mL: cOR = 0.55, 95% CI: .32-.94; I2 = 0.0%, P = .23).There was weak evidence of decreased CIN2+ detection at follow-up among WLHIV with higher contemporary CD4+ cell counts (≥200 cells/µL vs <200 cells/µL [cOR = 0.36, 95% CI: .04-3.13; I2 = 81.3%, P = .021]) and significant evidence among women with a higher nadir CD4+ count (≥350 cells/µl vs <200 cells/µl [adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 0.35, 95% CI: .15-.84; I2 = 0%, P = .64]). CONCLUSION ART may reduce the risk of CIN2+ detection at follow-up; this effect is most likely enhanced by a combination of adequate HIV control and excisional CIN treatment. Our findings support recommendations of early ART and the integration of CIN2+ screening and management into HIV care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data are lacking regarding which human papillomavirus (HPV) types cause high-grade cervical neoplasia (CIN2+) in people with HIV in Europe. We assessed which HPV types are associated with CIN2+ in women living in Sweden by HIV status. METHODS The Swedish National HIV Registry, the Swedish Population Registry, and the Swedish National Cervical Screening Registry were linked. CIN2+ tissue blocks of 130 women living with HIV (WLWH) and 234 HIV-negative women, matched for country of birth (1:2), were retrieved from bio-banks and HPV genotyped. Adjusted ORs (adjOR), stratified by country of birth, were calculated using conditional logistic regression. Matching was broken for cross-group comparisons. RESULTS WLWH with CIN2 were less likely to have HPV16 [14% vs. 40%; adjOR 0.1; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.04-0.56] than HIV-negative women, but among women with CIN3, there was no difference in HPV16 prevalence by HIV status (adjOR 0.9; 95% CI, 0.51-1.70). WLWH were six times more likely to have HPV35 in CIN3 than HIV-negative women (adjOR 6.2; 95% CI, 1.3-30.4). WLWH from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) had less 9-valent vaccine types, compared with both HIV-negative women born in Sweden (adjOR 0.1; 95% CI, 0.02-0.44) and WLWH born in Sweden (adjOR 0.1; 95% CI, 0.01-0.73), mostly because of decreased HPV16 and increased HPV35. CONCLUSIONS WLWH from SSA were less likely to be covered by the 9-valent vaccine, mostly due to less HPV16 and more HPV35. IMPACT This could have implications for HPV vaccines, currently not including HPV35, and for HPV-screening algorithms in women with origin from SSA.

Abstract
The Swedish Reference Group for Antiviral Therapy (RAV) published recommendations for the treatment of HIV infection in this journal most recently in 2017. An expert group under the guidance of RAV here provides updated recommendations. The most important updates in the present guidelines are the following: (a) The risk of HIV transmission through condomless sex from individuals with fully suppressed HIV viral load is effectively zero. (b) Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is recommended for groups with a high risk of HIV infection. (c) Since the last update, two new substances have been registered: bictegravir and doravirine. (d) Dual treatment may be an alternative in selected patients, using lamivudine + dolutegravir or lamivudine + boosted darunavir/atazanavir. As with previous publications, recommendations are evidence-graded in accordance with the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine. This document does not cover treatment of opportunistic infections and tumours.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Screening and treating premalignant cervical lesions (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2+ [CIN2+]) is an effective way to prevent cervical cancer, and recommendations exist for the monitoring of treatment success. Yet, there is no specific recommendation for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected women, who are at a known, increased risk of cervical cancer. METHODS A systematic review was performed by searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science for studies published from January 1980 through May 2018. Eligible studies described the prevalence of histologically- and/or cytologically-defined lesions in HIV-infected women at least 6 months post-treatment. The primary endpoint was treatment failure, defined as the presence of residual and/or recurrent high-grade CIN2+/high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions post-treatment. The pooled prevalence in HIV-infected women and the odds ratios (ORs) for HIV-infected compared to HIV-uninfected women were estimated using random-effects models. RESULTS Among 40 eligible studies, the pooled prevalence of treatment failure in HIV-infected women was 21.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 15.8-27.0). There was no significant difference in the treatment failure prevalence for cryotherapy (13.9%, 95% CI 6.1-21.6) versus loop electrosurgical excision procedure (13.8%, 95% CI 8.9-18.7; P = .9), but the treatment failure prevalence was significantly higher in women with positive (47.2%, 95% CI 22.0-74.0) than with negative (19.4%, 95% CI 11.8-30.2) excision margin (OR 3.4, 95% CI 1.5-7.7). Treatment failure was significantly increased in HIV-infected versus HIV-uninfected women, both overall (OR 2.7, 95% CI 2.0-3.5) and in all sub-group analyses. CONCLUSIONS There is strong evidence for an increased risk of treatment failure in HIV-infected women, in comparison to their HIV-negative counterparts. The only significant predictor of treatment failure in HIV-infected women was a positive margin status, but further data is needed on long-term outcomes after ablative treatment in HIV-infected women.
