Abstract
Molecular testing for high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) genotypes is important in screening for cervical cancer. In this study, we evaluated the performance of a newly developed Allplex HPV HR Detection assay in comparison with the Cobas HPV Test. A total of 1,275 cervical specimens obtained from a healthcare center between August 2021 and May 2022 were analyzed. The overall agreement for hrHPV detection was 98.4%, with higher agreement observed for HPV-16 (99.7%) and HPV-18 (99.8%) compared to other hrHPV genotypes (97.2%). Sequencing revealed that the majority of discrepancies was genotyped accurately by the Allplex HPV HR Detection assay with the exception of one false positive for HPV-16 and two false positives for other hrHPV genotypes. The Allplex HPV HR Detection assay showed almost perfect agreement with the Cobas HPV test, emphasizing its utility in hrHPV screening and monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Each high-risk HPV genotype has different oncogenic potential, and the risk of CIN3+ varies according to genotype. We evaluated the performance of different strategies of HPV-positivity triage combining cytology, p16/ki67 dual staining (DS), and extended genotyping. METHODS Samples from 3180 consecutive women from the NTCC2 study (NCT01837693) positive for HPV DNA at primary screening, were retrospectively analyzed by the BD Onclarity HPV Assay, which allows extended genotyping. Genotypes were divided into three groups based on the risk of CIN3+. HPV DNA-positive women were followed up for 24 months or to clearance. FINDINGS Combining the three groups of genotypes with cytology or DS results we identify a group of women who need immediate colposcopy (PPV for CIN3+ from 7.8 to 20.1%), a group that can be referred to 1-year HPV retesting (PPV in those HPV-positive at retesting from 2.2 to 3.8), and a group with a very low 24-month CIN3+ risk, i.e. 0.4%, composed by women cytology or DS negative and positive for HPV 56/59/66 or 35/39/68 or negative with the Onclarity test, who can be referred to 3-year retesting. INTERPRETATION Among the baseline HPV DNA positive/cytology or DS negative women, the extended genotyping allows to stratify for risk of CIN3+, and to identify a group of women with a risk of CIN3+ so low in the next 24 months that they could be referred to a new screening round after 3 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is a leading cause of cervical cancer, of which human papillomavirus (HPV)-16 and HPV-18 account for about 70% of cases. Since HPV infection is common, it is important to focus on the HPV genotypes that pose the highest risk for effective cervical cancer screening. In this study, we evaluated the clinical usefulness of HPV-16/HPV-18 genotyping for cervical cancer screening. METHODS A total of 86,022 women aged 25 years or older was analyzed in this study. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of HPV genotyping and cytology were analyzed. In addition, we subdivided participants into two groups according to cytology results, negative for intraepithelial lesion of malignancy (NILM) and atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US), and analyzed absolute risk (AR) and relative risk (RR) of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 3 or worse according to HPV genotype. RESULTS The AR of CIN 3 or worse was 77.0 times higher in HR-HPV-positive compared to HR-HPV-negative. Compared to 12 other HR-HPV-positive, the AR of CIN 3 or worse was 4.2 times higher in HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 positive. This finding was more evident in women with NILM than in women with ASC-US. The RR of CIN 3 or worse was 7.0 in women with NILM and 4.5 in women with ASC-US. CONCLUSION Regardless of the cytology results, the risk of CIN 3 or worse was higher in HPV-16/HPV-18 than in other HR-HPV. HPV-16/HPV-18 genotyping is recommended to screen women with a high risk of cervical cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer is an abnormal growth of cervical tissue epithelial cells due to persistent human papilloma virus (HPV) infection. Cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) can be naturally and spontaneously infected with M. fascicularis Papillomavirus Type 3 (MfPV3), a virus that is phylogenetically closely related to human oncogenic HPV (HPV-16 and HPV-34), and therefore a potentially beneficial for modeling HPV disease. This study aims to evaluate the expression of the integrin alpha 6 (ITGα6) receptor in cynomolgus monkeys spontaneously infected with MfPV3, which this receptor also found in human infected with HPV. METHODS The study was done on archived Formalin-fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) samples of uterine and cervix tissue of cynomolgus monkeys. Immunohistochemistry was also performed to quantify the expression levels of ITGα6. RESULTS The results showed 80% of the samples positive Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) and increased expression of ITGα6 significantly in Positive-MfPV3 group than negative-MfPV3 group. CONCLUSIONS This indicated the potential of cynomolgus monkeys as a spontaneous oncogenesis model of PV infection type.

Comparing the performance of 2 human papillomavirus assays for a new use indication: a real-world evidence-based evaluation in the United States. Am J Obstet Gynecol 2024; 230:243.e1-243.e11. [PMID: 37806613 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajog.2023.09.100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The US Food and Drug Administration supports innovations to facilitate new indications for high-risk human papillomavirus testing. This report describes the retrospective testing of stored specimens and analysis of existing data to efficiently and cost-effectively support a new indication for the Onclarity human papillomavirus assay (Becton, Dickinson and Company, BD Life Sciences - Integrated Diagnostic Solutions, Sparks, MD). The performance of this index test was compared with that of a predicate test, the cobas human papillomavirus assay (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN). Both human papillomavirus assays are based on real-time polymerase chain reaction platforms that detect the presence of 14 high-risk human papillomavirus genotypes. The predicate assay reports human papillomavirus types 16 and 18 as individual results and the other 12 human papillomavirus genotypes as 1 pooled result. The index assay reports 9 independent results (human papillomavirus types 16, 18, 31, 33/58, 35/39/68, 45, 51, 52, and 56/59/66). Both the index and predicate assays are approved by the Food and Drug Administration for cervical cancer screening, but at the time that this study was initiated, the index human papillomavirus assay was not approved for use with cervical specimens collected in PreservCyt (Hologic, Inc, San Diego, CA) liquid-based cytology media. OBJECTIVE The performance of the index human papillomavirus assay was compared with that of the predicate human papillomavirus assay for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 2 or greater and 3 or greater (≥CIN2 or ≥CIN3) using PreservCyt liquid-based cytology specimens collected from women aged 21 to 65 years. In addition, the ability of the index test's extended genotyping to stratify ≥CIN2 and ≥CIN3 risks, using these specimens, was evaluated. STUDY DESIGN The New Mexico HPV Pap Registry was used to select an age- and cytology-stratified random sample of 19,879 women undergoing opportunistic cervical screening and follow-up in routine clinical practice across New Mexico. A subset (n = 4820) of PreservCyt specimens was selected from 19,879 women for paired testing by the index and predicate human papillomavirus assays within age and cytology strata and included women with or without cervical biopsy follow-up. Point estimate differences and ratios were calculated for cervical disease detection and positivity rates, respectively, with 95% confidence intervals to determine statistical significance. The cumulative risk of ≥CIN2 or ≥CIN3, with up to 5-year follow-up, was estimated for the index assay using Kaplan-Meier methods. RESULTS The 5-year cumulative ≥CIN3 detection rates were 5.6% for the index assay and 4.6% for the predicate assay (difference, 1.0%; 95% confidence interval, 0.5%-1.5%). The ≥CIN3 positivity rates within <1 year were 95.3% for the index assay and 94.5% for the predicate assay (ratio, 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 0.98-1.06). The ≥CIN3 cumulative positivity rates for the index and predicate assays were also similar at 5 years. Among cases of ≥CIN3, the positive agreement rates between the index and predicate assays for human papillomavirus types 16 and 18 were 100.0% (95% confidence interval, 95.0%-100.0%) and 90.9% (95% confidence interval, 62.3%-98.4%), respectively. Human papillomavirus type 16 carried the highest ≥CIN2 or ≥CIN3 risk, followed by human papillomavirus types 18/31/33/58/52/45 and human papillomavirus types 35/56/59/51/56/59/66. CONCLUSION The index and predicate human papillomavirus assays demonstrated equivalent performance, and extended human papillomavirus genotyping, using the index assay, provided effective ≥CIN2 and ≥CIN3 risk stratification, supporting a new indication for use of the index assay with PreservCyt.

Abstract
Objectives This study was undertaken to study the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique in abnormal cervical pap smears and to correlate the different cytological results with HPV infection. Material and Methods A total of 1788 cervical pap smears of women more than 30 years of age conducted over a period of 1 year 3 months (June 2015-August 2016) were screened by liquid-based cytology. High-risk (HR)-HPV testing was performed by PCR in abnormal lesions. Inflammatory smears and some atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS)-reactive cases were excluded from HPV testing. Histopathological correlation was done wherever possible. Results The overall prevalence of the intraepithelial lesions/malignancy was ASCUS. (ASCUS) - 79 (4.42%), atypical squamous cells cannot exclude high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (ASC-H) - 10 (0.56%), low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) - 26 (1.45%), high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) - 15 (0.84%), squamous cell carcinoma - 5 (0.28%), and adenocarcinoma - 1 case (0.06%). Overall, 136 (7.60%) samples were classified as abnormal. Seventy-seven samples were included for HR-HPV testing - 20 ASCUS, 10 ASC-H, 26 LSIL, 15 HSIL, and 6 malignant cases. A control group of ten samples with normal cervical cytology within the normal limit (Control) (WNLc) was tested for HR-HPV. HR-HPV was detected in 20% of samples of the WNLc group, 45% of the ASCUS group, 70% of the ASC-H group, 73.07% of the LSIL group, 86.67% of the HSIL, and 83.34% of the samples in the malignant group. Overall, HR-HPV was detected in 68.83% of abnormal cervical pap smears. Conclusion Our study shows that the percentage of HR-HPV-positive case increases with the severity of cytologic morphology. HPV had 4 times higher positivity in squamous intraepithelial lesion as compared to ASCUS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HPV screening tests may improve cervical cancer risk stratification and better guide decisions about follow-up with colposcopy/biopsy. This study aimed to estimate the risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) among women with oncogenic HPV types and evaluate the performance of colposcopy in the diagnosis of histologic CIN2 + at Putuo Hospital, Shanghai, China. METHODS This cross-sectional survey was conducted from February 2020 to December 2022 among women who were referred to colposcopy. Women with high-risk (HR) HPV-positive, cytology testing and colposcopy-directed biopsy were included. RESULTS Univariate and multivariate analysis indicated that high-grade colposcopic impression ((OR, 17.61%, 95%CI: 11.54-26.85%) was associated with the highest risk for detecting CIN2+, followed by HSIL + cytology (OR, 6.90%, 95%CI: 3.56-13.37%) and HPV16/18 positive (OR, 2.91%, 95%CI: 2.12-3.99%). Overall, CIN2 + was detected in 14.6% of 2007 women. HPV16/18 had higher CIN2 + risks than other HR-HPV genotypes (30.1% vs. 10.2%, P<0.001). Among women with low-grade cytology, 24.1% had CIN2+, and the risks for HPV16/18 (58.2%) were higher than for other HR-HPV(16.8%). For those with high-grade cytology, there was no significant difference between HPV groups ( 75.0% vs. 72.9%, P > 0.05). The diagnostic performance of colposcopy in diagnosis of CIN2 + by senior and junior colposcopists was comparable. CONCLUSIONS The results indicated that referral to colposcopy is recommended in managing women with HR-HPV positive, and colposcopic impressions provide key clues for identification CIN2+.

Detection of high-grade cervical neoplasia using extended genotyping: Performance data from the longitudinal phase of the Onclarity trial. Gynecol Oncol 2023; 170:143-152. [PMID: 36682092 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2023.01.004] [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: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Onclarity cervical cancer screening trial was designed to establish the clinical validity of the Onclarity HPV assay for extended genotyping (xGT) during detection of high-grade cervical neoplasia grades 2 or 3 (≥CIN2 or ≥CIN3). Here, three-year follow up data is presented to evaluate the overall efficacy of these screening strategies, compared to the baseline data. METHODS At baseline 29,513 women, ≥25 years, had evaluable cytology and valid high-risk HPV results. Women with atypical squamous cells-undetermined significance or worse cytology or a positive HPV test were referred for colposcopy/biopsy. Participants that did not reach the study end point (treatment for ≥CIN2) continued into the longitudinal phase that included the same protocol as baseline. RESULTS The three-year cumulative incident risk (CIR) for ≥CIN3 in HPV-negative women was 0.15% [95%CI: 0.06, 0.26] and for HPV- and cytology-negative women was 0.12% [95% CI: 0.03,0.23]. HPV16 carried the highest baseline and three-year ≥CIN3 CIR, followed by HPV31 and HPV18. At least one year of genotype-specific persistence increased ≥CIN3 risk for xGT results compared to genotype non-persistence, HPV clearance, or new infection over the same time period. Risk-based screening with immediate colposcopy for HPV16/18/31 and further xGT triage resulted in better ≥CIN3 sensitivity (79.2% versus 72.3%; relative difference of 6.9 [95%CI: 3.3, 10.4]) and a lower colposcopy/≥CIN3 ratio (9.2 versus 11.2; relative difference of -1.9 [95%CI: -2.6, -1.3]) when compared to primary HPV16/18-based screening. CONCLUSIONS An HPV-negative result offers the same assurance of no disease over three years of follow up as that offered by a negative co-testing result. xGT facilitates risk-based screening and persistence tracking and can help optimize disease detection during screening without excessive colposcopic procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytology samples are widely used to diagnose various infectious diseases by detection and identification of causative infectious agents, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses. The role of cytopathology in infectious disease has expanded tremendously in the past decades with the advances in molecular techniques. Molecular diagnostic methods, compared to conventional methods, have shown improved patient outcome, reduction in cost, and shortened hospital stay times. The aim of this article is to review molecular testing in cytology samples for diagnosis of infectious diseases. METHODS The literature search for molecular testing in common cytology samples for diagnosis of infectious diseases was performed. The findings of the studies were summarized. The common cytology samples included in this article were gynecologic specimens, cerebrospinal fluid, bronchoalveolar lavage, and urine samples. CONCLUSIONS There are a number of molecular diagnostic tests that are available to be used in common cytology samples to detect infectious agents. Each test has its own advantages and limitations. It is our hope that upon reading this review article, the readers will have better understanding of molecular diagnostic testing of infectious diseases utilizing commonly sampled cytology specimens in daily practice.

Wu M, Ma X, Li H, Li B, Wang C, Fan X, Fan A, Xue F. Which is the best management for women with normal cervical cytologic findings despite positivity for non-16/18 high risk human papillomaviruses? Front Public Health 2022; 10:950610. [PMID: 36438260 PMCID: PMC9682294 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2022.950610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Women who test positive for the human papillomavirus (HPV) but have normal cytology constitute the predominant subgroup of patients in the screening population in the post-vaccination era. The distribution of HPV genotypes changed dramatically, which was attributable to an increase in HPV vaccination coverage. These changes have created uncertainty about how to properly manage women with normal cytology, non-HPV16/18 infections, or persistent infections. Current recommendations include retesting and continued surveillance in the absence of HPV16/18 infection. However, these are not always applicable. The ability to implement genotyping or incorporate HPV16/18 with some additional high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) types for triage and management with the aim of identifying type-specific risks in this population could be acceptable. When the next set of guidelines is updated, generating potential triage strategies for detecting high-grade cervical lesions, such as the p16/Ki67 cytology assay and other alternatives that incorporate genotyping with newer tests, should be considered. Current clinical management is shifting to risk-based strategies; however, no specific risk threshold has been established in this population. Importantly, innovative triage testing should be evaluated in combination with primary screening and management. Furthermore, there is an untapped opportunity to coordinate HPV genotyping in combination with colposcopic characteristics to modify risk in this group. Hence, providing a more personalized schedule through the efficient application of risk stratification and improving the detection of pre-cancer and cancer is an option worth exploring.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A demonstration project of primary human papillomavirus (HPV) testing was initiated in 2011 among more than 23,000 women attending routine cervical cancer screening. We examined the additional diagnostic performance of HPV genotyping for detecting disease in women with abnormal cytology. METHODS Women aged 30 to 65 years were originally screened for HPV using Hybrid Capture II test. Women with positive results were triaged using conventional cytology, and those with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance or worse (≥ASC-US) were referred to colposcopy. We retrospectively genotyped (Roche cobas 4800 HPV system [Roche Molecular Systems Inc, Pleasanton, CA]) cervical specimens that were HPV+ with Hybrid Capture II test and extracted women's medical history postbaseline screening. We calculated positive predictive values (PPVs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of triage tests to detect histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia of grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) within the first year of follow-up among women positive for HPV16, HPV18, and HPV16 and/or HPV18 as well as among those negative for HPVs 16 and 18. RESULTS Of 1,396 HPV-positive women, 1,092 (78%) were classified as normal, 136 (10%) had CIN1, 80 (6%) had CIN2, 81 (6%) had CIN3, and 7 women had cancer throughout the entire follow-up period. Seventy CIN2+ cases were detected within the first year of follow-up. The PPV for detecting CIN2+ was 20.9% (63/239; 95% CI = 16.4-25.9) for ASC-US+ cytology. In women with ASC-US+, PPVs were 31.2% (24/77; 95% CI = 21.1-42.7) for HPV16+, 27.8% (5/18; 95% CI = 9.7-53.5) for HPV18+, 30.8% (28/91; 95% CI = 21.5-41.3) for HPV16+ and/or HPV18+ women, and 16.6% (35/211; 95% CI = 11.8-22.3) in women testing negative for HPVs 16 and 18. CONCLUSION Partial genotyping as an additional triage strategy to cytology can markedly improve clinical diagnostic performance.

Abstract
High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) testing has become an increasing important strategy in primary cervical cancer screening in recent years. It warrants the evaluation of molecular-based HPV tests for accuracy and efficacy of screening. The performance of Roche Cobas 4800 HPV test was validated and compared with Digene Hybrid Capture 2 (HC2) high-risk HPV DNA test for primary screening in a large Chinese screening cohort. Of 6345 women screened, overall agreement between Cobas and HC2 was 92.23% (95% CI: 91.57–92.89). The inter-assay agreement was correlated with the severity of underlying biology, with an increasing concordance found in samples with more severe abnormalities. Most of the discordant samples had the test signal strength closer to the test limits of the detection than concordant samples, reflecting a low viral load and infection of a cluster of low-risk HPV in these samples. The Cobas test demonstrated significantly higher specificity in identifying CIN2+/CIN3+ cases than HC2 test (66.46% vs 43.67% and 65.42% vs 42.86%, p<0.001), with comparable sensitivity in clinical evaluation. Increased specificity of Cobas test would accent women having the highest risk of developing CIN2+, with the potential to reduce unnecessary colposcopy referral in a screening population.

Abstract
PURPOSE Comparison of colposcopy-guided biopsy and endocervical cytologic (ECC) results in patients with negative Papanicolaou (Pap) and positive high-risk (HR) HPV tests in the three groups of HPV 16/18, non-16/18 HR-HPV (other HR-HPV), and concurrent infection of either HPV 16/18 and at least one subtype of other HR-HPVs. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted among women aged 30-65 who had negative Pap and positive HR-HPV DNA tests. Pap test was performed using liquid cytology. For HPV DNA testing, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was used. RESULTS Among 394 participants, 111 (28.2%) were in the HPV 16/18, 226 (57.4%) in the Other HR-HPV, and 57 (14.4%) in the concurrent group. The mean age of participants was 35.71 ± 7.1 years. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 2/3 were seen in 29 (26.1%) patients of HPV 16/18, 60 (26.5%) of other HR-HPV, and 18 (31.6%) of concurrent infection group (P = 0.593). HPV 52 was the most common subtype in the other HR-HPV group (15%). CONCLUSIONS The risk of high-grade CIN lesions in patients with negative Pap test and positive other HR-HPV was not significantly less than patients with positive HPV 16/18. Besides, the risk of losing the patients to 1-year follow-up seems high.

Abstract
Objective While cytology-based screening programs have significantly reduced mortality and morbidity from cervical cancer, the global consensus is that primary human papillomavirus (HPV) testing increases detection of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and invasive cancer. However, the optimal triage strategy for HPV+ women to avoid over-referral to colposcopy may be setting specific. We compared absolute and relative risk (RR) of >CIN2/3 within 12 months of a negative cytologic result in women HPV16/18+ compared to those with a 12-other high-risk HPV (hrHPV) genotype to identify women at greatest risk of high-grade disease and permit less aggressive management of women with other hrHPV infections. Methods Participants were 14,160 women aged 25–69 years with negative cytology participating in the COMparison of HPV genotyping And Cytology Triage (COMPACT) study. Women who were HPV16/18+ were referred to colposcopy. Those with a 12-other hrHPV type underwent repeat cytology after 6 months and those with >abnormal squamous cells of undetermined significance went to colposcopy. Results Absolute risk of >CIN2 in HPV16/18+ women was 19.5% (95% CI=12.4%–29.4%). In women 25–29 years and HPV16+ it was 40.0% (95% CI=11.8%–76.9%). Absolute risk of >CIN3 in women HPV16/18+ was 11.0% (95% CI=5.9%–19.6%). For women 30–39 years and HPV16+ it was 23.1% (95% CI=5.0%–53.8%). Overall risk of >CIN2, >CIN3 in women with a 12-other hrHPV HPV type was 5.6% (95% CI=3.1%–10.0%) and 3.4% (95% CI=1.6%–7.2%) respectively. RR of >CIN2, >CIN3 in HPV16/18+ vs. 12-other hrHPV was 3.5 (95% CI=1.7–7.3) and 3.3 (95% CI=1.2–8.8), respectively. Conclusion Primary HPV screening with HPV16/18 partial genotyping is a promising strategy to identify women at current/future risk of >CIN2 in Japan without over-referral to colposcopy.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the clinical performance and utility for risk stratification of DH3 HPV assay in women (≥30 years) with NILM cytology. Methods A prospective cohort was established in Central China between November 8 to December 14, 2016 which consisted of 2180 women aging 30-64 years with NILM cytology. At baseline, all women were screened using DH3 HPV assay. HPV 16/18 positive women would be assigned to colposcopy and biopsied if necessary. Then, hr-HPV positive women without CIN2+ lesions would be followed up by cytology every 12 months for two years. In the 3rd year of follow up, all women that were not biopsy proven CIN2+ would be called back and screened by cytology again. In follow-up period, women with ASC-US and above were referred to colposcopy and biopsied if clinically indicated. CIN2+ was the primary endpoint in analysis. The clinical performance and utility for risk stratification of DH3 HPV assay were assessed by SPSS 22.0 and SAS 9.4. Results Of 2180 qualified women, the prevalence of hr-HPV was 8.5% (185/2180), 45(2.1%) were HPV 16/18 positive. The clinical performance for HPV16/18 was 91.7% for sensitivity, 98.4% for specificity, respectively against CIN2+ detection at baseline. In four years of study, the corresponding rates of HPV 16/18 were 51.5% and 98.7%, respectively. The cumulative absolute risk for the development of CIN2+ was as high as 37.8% for HPV 16/18 positive women, followed by hr-HPV positive (14.6%), other hr-HPV positive (11.0%) and HPV negative (0.3%) in three years. The relative risk was 125.6 and 3.4 for HPV 16/18 positive group when compared with HPV negative and other hr-HPV positive group, respectively. Conclusions DH3 HPV assay demonstrated excellent clinical performance against CIN2+ detection in cervical cancer screening and utility of risk stratification by genotyping to promote scientific management of women with NILM cytology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cervical cancer (ICC) is the fourth leading cause of mortality in women in Argentina and primary screening with conventional cytology (Papanicolaou smear) is the most widely used strategy despite its limitations. Strategies based on human papillomavirus (HPV) testing have the potential to improve detection and reduce mortality. The objective of this study is to evaluate the cost-effectiveness and budgetary impact of a strategy based on HPV testing with genotyping. METHODS We used a decision model to compare the ICC screening strategies. The population consisted of 30- to 65-year-old females suitable for screening in Argentina. Inputs comprised epidemiologic, diagnostic performance, and costs data. The clinical impact was represented by the number of ICC detected and ICC-related mortality. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio, estimated in terms of Argentinean pesos per life-year gained, and the budgetary impact were calculated at 5, 10, and 20 years. Univariate and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed. RESULTS Primary screening with HPV testing would prevent 1853 ICC deaths and reduce mortality by 13% at year 10 compared with Papanicolaou smear. With an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of AR$329 042 in the base case, it would be cost-effective for a cost-effectiveness threshold of 1 gross domestic product per capita. It would imply an additional expense in the first 5 years and probably savings in the subsequent ones. Sensitivity analyses confirm the robustness of the findings. CONCLUSIONS The primary screening strategy based on HPV testing with genotyping compared with conventional cytology is most likely a cost-effective strategy in Argentina.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increase in human papillomavirus test volumes is expected in the near future because human papillomavirus-based screening protocols are expected to become more widely adopted. OBJECTIVE The IMproving Primary Screening And Colposcopy Triage trial, a prospective, multicenter, US-based cervical cancer screening trial, was conducted to obtain US Food and Drug Administration approvals for the new, high-throughput cobas human papillomavirus (cobas HPV) test for use on the cobas 6800/8800 Systems (cobas HPV) for detecting cervical precancerous and cancerous cells (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia of grade 2 or worse and grade 3 or worse). Here, the baseline demographics, human papillomavirus test results, cervical cytology, and histopathologic results are presented. In addition, the baseline and 1-year risks of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse and grade 3 or worse associated with the human papillomavirus results are reported. STUDY DESIGN In total, 35,263 women aged between 25 and 65 years undergoing routine screening were enrolled; liquid-based cytology and 2 polymerase chain reaction-based tests for high-risk human papillomavirus were performed. Women with abnormal Papanicolaou cytology, women positive for high-risk human papillomavirus by either of the 2 human papillomavirus tests, and a random subset of women negative according to the Papanicolaou cytology and the 2 human papillomavirus tests were referred for a colposcopy and cervical biopsy. Women who did not meet the study endpoint were eligible for the 1-year follow-up study phase. Verification bias-adjusted cervical disease prevalence and risks and 95% confidence intervals were computed. RESULTS The prevalence of atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance and worse than atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance cytology were 6.5% and 3.2%, respectively. Prevalence of high-risk human papillomavirus, human papillomavirus 16, and human papillomavirus 18 based on the new cobas HPV test were 15.1%, 3.1%, and 1.4%, respectively. Both cytologic abnormalities and human papillomavirus positivity declined with increasing age. Among women who had a colposcopy and biopsy, the prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse and grade 3 or worse were 8.8% and 3.6%, respectively. The baseline and 1-year cumulative risks for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 or worse were 13.6% and 16.9%, respectively, among women who tested positive for human papillomavirus 16. Women who tested negative for human papillomavirus had the lowest 1-year cumulative risk for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 or worse (0.06%). CONCLUSION The contemporary, age-specific prevalence of human papillomaviruses (including human papillomavirus 16 and 18), cytologic abnormalities, and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in a large, US-based cervical cancer screening population provides benchmarks for healthcare policies, screening programs, and for laboratories and clinicians.

HPV16 Load Is a Potential Biomarker to Predict Risk of High-Grade Cervical Lesions in High-Risk HPV-Infected Women: A Large Longitudinal French Hospital-Based Cohort Study. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13164149. [PMID: 34439304 PMCID: PMC8394477 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13164149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/27/2021] [Accepted: 08/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary This study aimed at assessing HPV16 and HPV18 viral loads to predict the development of cervical high-grade lesion. Among 885 women positive for hrHPV and presenting no or mild cytological abnormalities, HPV16 and HPV18 prevalence was 25.9% and 8.4%, respectively. Of those women, 135 developed a high-grade lesion during the follow-up. Considering an HPV16 viral load cut-off set at 3.2 log10 GE/103 cells a subgroup of women at high risk of developing high-grade cervical lesion (HR = 2.67; 95% CI 1.80–3.97 p ≤ 0.0001) has been identified. Moreover, a composite score based on HPV16 load, cytology and hrHPV detection allowed for CIN2+ risk stratification. To conclude, HPV16 load is a relevant biomarker to identify women at high risk for developing precancerous lesions of the cervix. Abstract High-risk HPV (hrHPV) testing has been implemented as a primary screening tool for cervical cancer in numerous countries. However, there is still a need for relevant triage strategies to manage hrHPV positive women to avoid excessive referral to colposcopy. The objective of this study was to assess, in women infected by hrHPV and presenting no or mild cytological abnormalities, HPV16 and HPV18 viral loads to predict the development of cervical high-grade lesion. Among 2102 women positive for hrHPV, 885 had no lesion or mild cytological abnormalities at baseline and had at least one follow-up (FU) visit. HPV16 and HPV18 prevalence was 25.9% and 8.4%, respectively. Of those women, 15% developed a high-grade lesion during the FU. An HPV16 viral load cut-off set at 3.2 log10GE/103 cells permitted to identify a subgroup of women at high risk of developing high-grade cervical lesion (HR = 2.67; 95% CI 1.80–3.97; p ≤ 0.0001). No specific HPV18 viral load threshold could have been defined in regard to the present study. In multivariate analysis, HPV16 load (absence/log10GE/103 cells < 3.2 vs. ≥3.2), RLU/PC 239 (1–100 pg/mL vs. >100 pg/mL) and cytology (normal vs abnormal) were independently associated with a significant increased risk of high-grade lesion development and were used to construct the prognostic score. In conclusion, HPV16 load is a relevant biomarker to identify women at high risk for developing cervical precancerous lesions.

Abstract
Only clinically validated human papillomavirus (HPV) tests should be used in cervical cancer screening. VALGENT provides a framework to validate new HPV tests. In the VALGENT-3 study, the clinical accuracy of the recently launched Abbott Alinity m HR HPV assay (Alinity m) to detect cervical precancerous lesions was assessed against the standard comparator test (Hybrid Capture 2; HC2) and against two previously validated alternative comparator tests (Abbott RealTime HR HPV and Roche cobas 4800 assays). Validation was conducted using 1,300 consecutive cervical samples from women attending an organized population-based cervical screening program enriched with 300 cytologically abnormal samples. Overall high-risk HPV test concordance was assessed by kappa values; the concordance for HPV-16 and HPV-18 was assessed for Alinity m, RealTime, and cobas, and the Linear Array (Roche) was used for more detailed genotyping concordance. In the total study population, the relative sensitivity and specificity for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) and CIN3+ of Alinity m compared to HC2 was 1.02 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.99 to 1.06) and 1.03 (95% CI, 0.99 to 1.06), respectively. The relative specificity for nondiseased subjects (≤CIN1) was 1.01 (95% CI, 1.00 to 1.02) (all pnon-inferiority ≤ 0.001). Alinity m showed noninferior clinical accuracy among women 30 years or older when cobas or RealTime was used as a comparator. HPV genotype-specific concordance between Alinity m and the three comparator tests showed excellent agreement, with kappa values ranging from 0.82 to 1.00. In conclusion, Alinity m fulfills the international accuracy requirements for use in cervical cancer screening and shows excellent HPV genotype-specific concordance with three clinically validated HPV tests.

The meaning of high-risk HPV other than type 16/18 in women with negative cytology: Is it really safe to wait for 1 year? Diagn Cytopathol 2021; 49:480-486. [PMID: 33528903 DOI: 10.1002/dc.24705] [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: 11/23/2020] [Revised: 01/11/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a primary risk factor for cervical cancer. HPV 16 and 18 are the two most carcinogenic genotypes and have been reported in the majority of cervical cancer. High-risk HPVs (hrHPVs) other than HPV 16/18 cause approximately a quarter of cervical cancers. We aimed to present the colposcopy-guided biopsy results of non-16/18 hrHPV-infected women with negative cytology. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study conducted on 752 patients between the ages of 30-65 years with non-16/18 hrHPV and negative cytology undergoing colposcopy-guided biopsy at a tertiary gynecological cancer center between January-2016 and January-2019. RESULTS The mean age of the women was 42.35±9.41 years. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2+ lesion was detected in 49 (6.5%) women with negative cytology. The rate of CIN 2+ lesions in women with abnormal cytology was 12.8%. Patients with abnormal cytology had about 2.1 and 2.4 times increased the odds of CIN 2+ lesion in cervical biopsy and endocervical curettage specimens, respectively. CIN 3+ lesion was detected in 20 (2.7%) women with negative cytology. One (0.1%) of the patients with HPV 39 and negative cytology had invasive cervical cancer. The two most common HPV subtypes were HPV 31 and HPV 51. CONCLUSIONS The risk of cervical preinvasive lesions still can be detected and cannot be completely eliminated among hrHPV other than 16/18-infected women with negative cytology. Based on the results of this study, referral of non-16/18 hrHPV-infected women with negative cytology to colposcopy is supported as a credible and feasible strategy.

Options for triage and implications for colposcopists within European HPV-based cervical screening programmes. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2021; 258:332-342. [PMID: 33524777 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2020.12.061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2020] [Revised: 11/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/23/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The development of human papillomavirus (HPV)-based screening should detect more pre-cancerous changes and so reduce the incidence and mortality from cervical squamous carcinoma and cervical adenocarcinoma. However, many more women are high risk HPV (hrHPV) screen positive compared to cytology-based screening, especially in younger age-women. A variety of tests have become available which may triage into those hrHPV test-positive women who need immediate referral to colposcopy from those who need early repeat HPV tests or recall on the basis of their disease status. We performed a literature review of publications and a manual search from 2010, reporting cytology, HPV partial genotyping, dual-staining and DNA methylation for triage of hrHPV positive tests, including their comparative performance between these methods as well as the effectiveness of some triage combinations with reference to HPV-based screening services in Europe. Cost effectiveness and the structure of triage algorithms for colposcopists also have been considered. From one report evaluating four options for triage as single options or as combined algorithms, partial genotyping for HPV 16 and 18 with dual-staining yielded the highest risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade three or worse within an HPV positive population and with an acceptable colposcopy rate. From a separate paper, this option appeared cost effective. However, publications were difficult to compare objectively. All options have their merits but a combination triage involving any two of cytology, HPV partial genotyping or dual-staining seems most efficient at present. HPV vaccination may impact upon the performance of future partial genotyping. DNA Methylation may become an acceptable future option.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate partial HPV16/18 genotyping as a possible biomarker to select women attending HPV‐based cervical cancer screening at higher risk to be referred to colposcopy. Design Population‐based cohort study. Setting Organised cervical cancer screening programmes (Italy). Population Women with high‐risk HPV infection (period: 2015–2019). Methods We analysed the association between partial HPV16/18 genotyping, cytology triage and histologically confirmed diagnosis of high‐grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN3+) lesions. Main outcome measures Detection rate (DR) and positive predictive value (PPV) for histologically confirmed CIN3+ (any episode in the 2 years after baseline); sensitivity for CIN3+ and number of colposcopies needed for lesion detection. Results The study included 145 437 women screened with HPV testing by the clinically validated COBAS 4800 HPV assay (Roche). Overall, 9601 (6.6%) women were HPV+ at baseline; HPV16 and HPV18 were present in 1865 and 594 samples, respectively. The cumulative (baseline plus 1‐year repeat) cytology positivity was 42.8% and high‐grade cytology was significantly higher (P < 0.0001) among women with HPV16 infection at baseline (15.2%). The cumulative CIN3+ DR for women with HPV16, HPV18 and other HPV‐type infections was 9.8%, 3.4% and 1.8%, respectively. Conclusions Partial HPV16 genotyping may play a role in triage, whereas HPV18 seems to behave much more similarly to the other HPV types and does not provide additional stratification. HPV16 genotyping combined with high‐grade cytology can be envisaged as a triage biomarker in cervical screening to maximise CIN3+ detection while minimising colposcopy at baseline or 1‐year repeat. Tweetable abstract HPV16 genotyping combined with high‐grade cytology can be used as triage biomarker for CIN3+ in HPV‐positive women. HPV16 genotyping combined with high‐grade cytology can be used as a triage biomarker for CIN3+ in HPV‐positive women.

Abstract
To identify the optimal cost-effective strategy for cervical cancer screening program in Thailand by comparing the different algorithms which based on the use of primary human papilloma virus (HPV) assay. We use a Microsoft Excel-based spreadsheet to calculate the accumulated cases of preinvasive and invasive cervical cancer and the budget impact of each screening program. The model was developed to determine the cost-effectiveness of 3 screening strategies: pooled HPV test with reflex liquid-based cytology triage, HPV genotyping with reflex p16/ki67 dual stain cytology, and pooled HPV test with dual stain. The main outcomes were the total cost, incremental quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs). Strategy entailing primary HPV genotyping and reflex dual stain cytology is the least costly strategy (total cost US$37 893 407) and provides the similar QALY gained compared to pooled high-risk HPV testing with reflex dual stain (Average QALY 24.03). Pooled HPV test with reflex dual staining is more costly compared to strategy without reflex dual staining. The ICER was US$353.40 per QALY gained. One-way sensitivity analysis showed that the model is sensitive to the cost of dual stain and the cost of cancer treatment. Decreasing the incidence of cervical cancer case and increasing the QALYs can be successful by using dual stain cytology as the triage test for pooled HPV test or HPV genotyping. The result of our analysis favors the use of HPV genotyping with the reflex dual stain as it offers the most QALY at the lowest cost.

Abstract
AIM Persistent infection with 1 of 14 high-risk genotypes human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes is the crucial for the development of high-grade cervical cancer precursors. The reassuring management of women with cytology negative, high-risk HPV (HrHPV) positive is important especially after the widespread use of HPV testing either as a cotest. The aim of our study was to compare the colposcopic biopsy results of women with HPV 16/18 with other Hr-HPV genotypes and determine positive predictive values (PPV) for CIN2+ of other HR HPV genotypes. METHODS We prospectively had included the women with negative cytology and positive Hr-HPV test other than HPV 16/18. Control group was composed of women with negative cytology positive test results for either HPV 16 or HPV 18. Women with HrHPV positive, cytology negative referred to immediate colposcopy. RESULTS The prevalence of CIN1 and CIN2 is significantly higher in HPV 16/18 group than pooled other HrHPV group (34.1% vs 17.5%, P = 0.01 for CIN 1+; 14.8% vs 5.2%, P = 0.03 for CIN 2+). The prevalence of CIN3 was almost three fold in women with HPV 16/18 (9.1% vs 3.1%). PPV for CIN 2+ was 16.4 (9.1-27.3) for HPV 16, 11.7 (2-37.7) for HPV 18, 20 (3.5-55.7) for HPV 31, 11.1 (0.6-49.3) for HPV 51, 12.5 (0.6-53.3) for HPV 58 and 59. CONCLUSION We showed the relative high PPV for CIN2+ in OHrHPV other than HPV 16/18 positive group among cytology negative population. HPV 33, 51, 58, 59 and 18 had similar PPV for CIN2+ in basal cytology negative population.

Abstract
Objective: Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are DNA viruses, of which over 120 types have been identified. The main screening methods for HPV-DNA include the hybrid capture II (HC-II) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. Liquid-based cytology (LBC) is a high-quality technique developed to improve the diagnostic reliability of traditional Papanicolaou tests (Pap tests). However, relatively few studies have compared the efficacy of PCR and HC-II assays using cervicovaginal LBC specimens. In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis with results derived from the HC-II assay to assess whether a PCR-based assay using a novel carboxyfluorescein (FAM)-labeled primer could be applied to cervicovaginal LBC specimens. Methods and Results: We analyzed 59 specimens diagnosed as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) by Pap tests. After extracting DNA from cervicovaginal LBC specimens, we performed PCR using a FAM-labeled consensus primer, and then conducted fragment analysis to confirm the results. The value of the kappa statistic measuring the agreement between the PCR and HC-II results was 0.8557, or “almost perfect agreement.” Conclusion: Our novel HPV-PCR assay can be successfully applied to cervicovaginal LBC specimens for the detection of HPV subtypes.

Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to describe the study design, and to analyze the type-specific distribution of cervical high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) infection and its association with cytological and histological results in a large population-based screening program in Buji Street, Shenzhen, China. Methods: A total of 10,186 women aged 21-70 years were co-tested by Cobas4800 HPV assay and liquid-based cytology. Women were referred to colposcopy by virtue of being HPV16/18-positive, Other hrHPV-positive/ cytology ≥ASCUS, or HPV-negative/ cytology ≥LSIL. Three-year histological follow-up data were recorded. Results: The overall prevalence of hrHPV infection was 11.1%; among them, the highest type was Other hrHPV (8.9%), followed by HPV16 (1.6%) and HPV18 (0.6%). Moreover, the prevalence of hrHPV and that of HPV16 increased with cytological severity (Ptrend <0.001). In the baseline phase, 106 women had cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 (CIN2/3) and six had cervical cancers. During 3-year follow-up, 12 cases of CIN2/3 and no cancers were identified. For HPV16-positive women with normal cytology, the baseline risks of CIN2/3 or worse (CIN2+/CIN3+) were 15.5% (7.0-23.9%) and 4.2% (1.4-8.5%) respectively. For Other hrHPV-positive women with normal cytology, the cumulative 3-year risks of CIN2+/CIN3+ were 3.1% (1.0-5.2%) and 0.7% (0.3-2.1%) respectively. Strikingly, 75.8% (322/425) of abnormal cytology and 50.9% (29/57) HSIL cytology were attributed to Other hrHPV infection in HPV-positive women. Similarly, Other hrHPV infection led to large proportions of CIN2 (62.7%) and CIN3+ (43.9%) over 3-year follow-up. Conclusions: The co-testing modality is a feasible, effective and safe option for cervical cancer screening in urban population. Great importance should also be attached to 'genotypes excluding HPV16/18' and separate detection of each genotype when considering screening and vaccination strategy.

Abstract
Cervical cancer screening has been shifting from primary cytology to primary HPV testing worldwide as primary HPV testing is more sensitive than primary cytology. To the best of our knowledge, the current study is the first in Japan to examine the feasibility of primary HPV testing. One of the disadvantages of this shift is that hrHPV-/≥LSIL/CIN2+ (high-risk HPV negative cancers or pre-cancerous lesions with abnormal cytology results) can be missed. The objectives of the present study are to clarify in detail CIN2+ missed by this shift and to evaluate the feasibility of primary HPV testing in Japan. Data from 115,273 women who underwent co-testing with cytology and HPV testing in cancer screening were used in the current study. The cases with hrHPV-/≥LSIL (‘hrHPV-/≥L-SIL’ include CIN2-, in contrast, ‘hrHPV-/≥L-SIL/CIN2+’ doesn't include CIN2-) were analysed in detail. Women with hrHPV-/≥LSIL comprised 0.3% of the total. The prevalence of CIN2, CIN3, SCC or cervical adenocarcinomas in the lesions with HPV-/≥LSIL was 0.03% in the cancer screening group. Only one case of 14 cervical adenocarcinomas in ≥LSIL was hrHPV-. The prevalence of cancer missed by the shift in patients >50 years of age was significantly higher compared with patients younger than 49 years. In conclusion, the prevalence of CIN2+, which might be missed by the shift from primary cytology to primary HPV testing, was remarkably low in this Japanese cancer screening. The data indicated that primary HPV testing, which was more sensitive for CIN2+ than primary cytology, was a feasible method that can be used in Japan. In particular, primary HPV testing should be introduced for women <50 years old.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The accuracy of colposcopy-guided biopsy is key to the success of colposcopic triage in cervical cancer screening programs. However, there is no widely adopted biopsy guideline up to date. Our study aimed to determine whether multi-quadrants biopsy improves the yield of cervical lesions. METHODS Eleven population-based cervical cancer screening studies were conducted in China. Cytology, high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing and visual inspection were performed for primary screening. Females positive on one or more tests were referred for colposcopy and biopsy. The proportion of detected cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)2+ and yields by quadrant lesion-targeted biopsy or 4-quadrant random biopsy were compared. RESULTS Among 4,923 females included, 1,606 had quadrant lesion-targeted biopsy, and 3,317 had 4-quadrant random biopsy. The cumulative CIN2+ yield increased from 0.10 for only one quadrant-targeted biopsy to 0.21, 0.34, and 0.58 for at most two, three and four quadrants targeted biopsies. Among hrHPV positive females with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL)+ cytology, the cumulative CIN2+ yield of a second targeted biopsy in another quadrant was significantly increased (P<0.05). Among hrHPV-negative females, the yield of 4-quadrant random biopsies was 0.005, and the yield by lesion-targeted biopsies was 0.017. For hrHPV positive females who had 4-quadrant random biopsy, the additional CIN2+ yield for HSIL+, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) cytology, or abnormal visual inspection via acetic acid and Lugol's iodine (VIA/VILI) were 0.46, 0.11, 0.14. CONCLUSIONS A 4-quadrant random biopsy is recommended only for hrHPV positive females with HSIL cytology, and is acceptable if hrHPV positive with LSIL cytology or with abnormal VIA/VILI. Our findings add evidences for an objective and practical biopsy standard to guide colposcopy in cervical cancer screening programs in low- and middle-income countries.

Real-world data on cervical cancer risk stratification by cytology and HPV genotype to inform the management of HPV-positive women in routine cervical screening. Br J Cancer 2020; 122:1715-1723. [PMID: 32242098 PMCID: PMC7250848 DOI: 10.1038/s41416-020-0790-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2019] [Revised: 02/03/2020] [Accepted: 02/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND HPV16/18 detection may improve cervical cancer risk stratification and better guide which HPV-positive women warrant immediate colposcopy/biopsy. We estimated risks of cervical precancer and cancer by HPV genotype and cytology during the implementation phase of primary HPV testing in Norway. METHODS A total of 3111 women, aged 34-69 years, testing HPV-positive at baseline and undergoing cytology testing from February 2015 to April 2018 had data available for analysis. Risk estimates with 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 or more severe (CIN3+) were estimated for cytology results and HPV genotypes (HPV16, HPV18, and other high-risk HPV). RESULTS CIN3+ risks were higher for HPV16/18 than other high-risk HPV genotypes. Among women with any cytologic abnormality [atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance or worse], immediate risks were 57.8% (95%CI = 53.0-62.6%) for HPV16, 40.2% (95%CI = 32.3-49.2%) for HPV18, and 31.4% (95%CI = 28.7-34.3%) for other high-risk HPV. Among those with normal cytology, CIN3+ risks were 19.9% (95%CI = 15.0-26.1%) for HPV16 positives, 10.8% (95%CI = 5.6-20.5%) for HPV18 positives, and 5.5% (95%CI = 4.2-7.1%) for other high-risk HPV. CONCLUSIONS The benefits and harms of managing women based on HPV positivity and cytology results can be better balanced by inclusion of HPV genotyping in screening and choosing more conservative management for other high-risk HPV compared to HPV16/18.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The VALidation of HPV Genotyping Tests (VALGENT) framework is an international cooperation designed for comparison and clinical validation of HPV assays with genotyping capabilities. OBJECTIVES Here we addressed the accuracy of the Roche cobas 4800 HPV test using SurePath samples from the Danish cervical cancer screening program under the VALGENT framework. MATERIAL AND METHODS The VALGENT4 panel comprises 998 consecutive SurePath cervical samples from routine screening and 297 SurePath samples enriched for disease (100 ASC-US, 100 LSIL, 97 HSIL). The cobas HPV test is a real-time PCR assay which detects HPV16 and 18 individually and 12 other high-risk (hr) HPV genotypes in one bulk. RESULTS The clinical performance of the cobas test was assessed relative to that of the comparator assay GP5+/6 + PCR Enzyme ImmunoAssay (GP-EIA) by a non-inferiority test. The relative sensitivity for ≥ CIN2 was 1.00 (95% CI: 0.97-1.04) and relative specificity for the control group was 1.02 (95% CI: 1.01-1.04). The cobas test was found non-inferior to that of GP-EIA for both sensitivity and specificity (p-0.0006 and p < 0.0001, respectively). The type specific performance of the cobas test was evaluated using the GP5+/6 + PCR with Luminex genotyping (GP-LMNX) as comparator. The cobas test showed excellent to good concordance (Kappa: 0.70 to 0.90) with GP-LMNX for all three genotype groups in the overall VALGENT population but good to moderate concordance in the Screening population (kappa from 0.56 to 0.80). CONCLUSIONS The cobas HPV test demonstrated non-inferiority to the comparator assay on cervical SurePath screening samples using the VALGENT4 panel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The limited sensitivity of Papanicolaou (Pap) cytology and the low specificity of HPV testing in detecting cervical or vaginal lesions means that either precancers are missed or women without lesions are overtreated. To improve performance outcomes, p16/Ki-67 dual-stain cytology has been introduced as a useful biomarker. METHODS A prospective, cross-sectional study was performed and included 599 patients. Clinical performance estimates of Pap cytology, HPV DNA assay, and p16/Ki-67 dual-stain cytology for the detection of CIN2+/VAIN2+ were determined and compared. RESULTS The sensitivity and specificity of p16/Ki-67 dual-stain cytology in detecting histology proven CIN2+/VAIN2+ was 91.6% and 95.0%, respectively, while that of Pap cytology was 42.1% and 95.2%, respectively, and that of HPV DNA testing was 100% and 41.6%, respectively. Among the three tests, the AUC of p16/Ki-67 immunocytochemistry was the largest, both for detecting cervical lesions and vaginal lesions, at 0.932 and 0.966, respectively. Among women who were HPV 16/18 positive or 12-other hrHPV positive and Pap positive (≥ASCUS), dual staining reduced the number of unnecessary colposcopy referrals from 274 to 181. Among the women who were 12-other hrHPV positive and Pap negative, dual staining could prevent underdiagnosis in six patients with CIN2+/VAIN2+ when used as a triage marker. Dual staining also identified four women with high-grade lesions detected by diagnostic conization but with negative colposcopy-guided biopsy results. CONCLUSION p16/Ki-67 dual staining may be a promising tool for predicting high-grade cervical and vaginal lesions.

Abstract
Many countries are transitioning to HPV testing for cervical cancer screening, despite a lack of long-term experience. To anticipate multi-round screening performance, we analyzed 15-year HPV testing results at Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC). We evaluated HPV test result patterns among women aged 30-64 undergoing triennial HPV/cytology cotesting at KPNC during 2003-2018. We calculated incidence rates and proportion of CIN3+ diagnoses associated with the most frequent HPV testing patterns overall and stratified by age. From 2003 to 2018, a total of 1,361,581 women had a valid HPV test result, and 7,087 were diagnosed with CIN3+. Incidence rates of CIN3+ after HPV positivity were lowest when HPV detection was new and highest in women with prevalent infections (770 vs. 13,910/100,000 person-years). Repeat test negativity reduced subsequent incidence rates of CIN3+ to extremely low levels (18/100,000 person-years following four consecutive negative results). For mixed patterns of positivity/negativity, the recency and frequency of positive tests were associated with increased rates of CIN3+ diagnosis. Most CIN3+ cases (76%) were diagnosed in women who were positive at baseline (the first known positive HPV result); 16% were attributed to apparent newly detected infections and 3% to possible reappearing infections. These results corroborate previous findings that current HPV positivity, particularly when prevalent rather than new, is associated with the highest rates of CIN3+. In a screening program implementing HPV testing, most CIN3+ is detected at the first HPV positive test.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is a growing and serious problem world-wide in women, but more acute in developing countries especially in Indian subcontinent. The main causative agent for the disease is Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). The history of the cervical cancer goes back to eighteenth century as the HPV infection is reported since 1800s. Presently, the genetic structure of HPV is well defined. Several screening tests including cytology and visual based screening and high risk HPV testing are available. Also available are various clinical and commercial diagnostic tests. However due to the lack of awareness and population-based screening programs, the morbidity and mortality rate is alarmingly high. There are new emerging biomarkers including E6/E7 mRNA, p16ink4a, markers of aberrant S-phase induction, chromosomal abnormalities and miRNAs along with advanced genotyping methods. These markers have clinical significance and are helpful in disease prevention and management. Further, recent advancement in the field of metagenomics has increased the prospects of identifying newer microbes, viruses hitherto reported thus far in the context of HPV infection. Analysis of HPV cases using modern tools including genotyping using more powerful biomarkers is envisaged to enhance the prospects of early diagnosis, better prognosis, more reliable treatment and eventual management of the disease.

Abstract
The objective was to assess the diagnostic test accuracy of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing of self-collected urine and cervicovaginal samples for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or higher (CIN2+). We recruited a convenience sample of women 25 to 65 years of age who were undergoing clinically indicated colposcopy at two medical centers in North Carolina between November 2016 and January 2019. Women with normal cytology results and positive hrHPV results were also recruited. Urine samples, self-collected cervicovaginal samples, provider-collected cervical samples, and cervical biopsy samples were obtained from all enrolled women. Samples were tested for hrHPV DNA using the Onclarity assay (Becton Dickinson, Sparks, MD). Biopsy samples were histologically graded as CIN2+ or

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this study, we sought to correlate genotype test results for human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16, 18, and 45 with histopathologic follow-up diagnoses in patients with messenger RNA (mRNA) high-risk HPV-positive, cytology-negative results. METHODS We identified 1,157 patients with mRNA HPV-positive, cytology-negative cervical screening test results between June 2015 and June 2018. Reflex HPV 16/18/45 genotype results were documented in 1,018 women aged 30 years or older, 318 of whom had follow-up within 18 months. RESULTS Histopathologic findings of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or worse (CIN2+) were diagnosed in 14 of 122 (11.5%) patients positive for HPV 16/18/45 vs in seven of 196 (3.6%) HPV 16/18/45-negative patients. Three patients with high-risk HPV-positive, cytology-negative cervical screening test results were diagnosed with stage I cervical adenocarcinomas following early colposcopic referral and biopsy after HPV 16/18/45-positive genotype results. CONCLUSIONS Immediate reflex HPV 16/18/45 genotyping of mRNA HPV-positive, cytology-negative patients led to early colposcopic referral and histopathologic diagnoses of three difficult-to-detect, low-stage, cervical adenocarcinomas and significantly increased overall early detection of CIN2+ lesions.

Approaches to triage optimization in HPV primary screening: Extended genotyping and p16/Ki-67 dual-stained cytology-Retrospective insights from ATHENA. Int J Cancer 2019; 146:2599-2607. [PMID: 31490545 PMCID: PMC7078939 DOI: 10.1002/ijc.32669] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2019] [Revised: 07/29/2019] [Accepted: 08/15/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
The objective of our study was to assess the performance of different triage strategies for high‐risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV)‐positive results utilizing either extended genotyping or a p16/Ki‐67 dual‐stained cytology (DS) approach, with or without partial genotyping. A subset of women with hrHPV infections participating in the Addressing the Need for Advanced HPV Diagnostics (ATHENA) study were analyzed to determine the number of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 or worse (≥CIN3) cases detected, and the absolute risk for ≥CIN3 of each genotype. A clinical utility table was constructed to compare the impact of different triage strategies. In all, 2,339 women with single‐genotype hrHPV infections were identified. Among these were 171 ≥CIN3 cases. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved algorithm (HPV16/18 positive, or 12‐other hrHPV positive and Pap positive, i.e., ≥ atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance) for primary HPV screening detected 132/171 (77.2%) ≥CIN3 cases and required 964 colposcopies (colposcopies per ≥CIN3 ratio: 7.3). An approach that uses DS instead of cytology in the FDA‐approved algorithm detected 147/171 (86.0%) ≥CIN3 cases, requiring 1,012 colposcopies (ratio: 6.9). Utilizing DS for triage of all hrHPV‐positive women identified 126/171 (73.7%) ≥CIN3 cases, requiring 640 colposcopies (ratio: 5.1). A strategy that detected HPV16/18/31/33/35+ captured 130/171 (76.0%) ≥CIN3 cases, requiring 1,025 colposcopies (ratio: 7.9). Inclusion of additional genotypes resulted in greater disease detection at the expense of higher colposcopy ratios. Substituting cytology with a DS triage approach improved disease detection and the colposcopy detection rate. Further reduction of colposcopy rates can be achieved by using DS without partial genotyping. Extended genotyping strategies can identify a comparable number of cases but requires an increased number of colposcopies. What's new? Among HPV‐positive women, the goal is to maximize the number of CIN3 or greater cases detected while minimizing colposcopies. These authors compared various combinations of genotyping and dual‐stained cytology (DS) as triage strategies. From a pool of 2,339 hrHPV+ women, 171 cases with ≥CIN3 were identified. Only one algorithm they tested boosted sensitivity over the current approach without reducing specificity. This method used DS to triage women who tested positive for 12‐other HPV, and referring HPV16/18+ patients directly to colposcopy. This approach caught 147 of the 171 cases, while reducing the number of colposcopies per case from 7.4 to 6.9.

Prevalence of HPV-16/18 genotypes and immediate histopathologic correlation results in a Chinese population with negative cytology and positive high-risk HPV testing. Cancer Cytopathol 2019; 127:650-657. [PMID: 31532582 DOI: 10.1002/cncy.22180] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2019] [Revised: 07/25/2019] [Accepted: 07/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to examine the prevalence of human papillomavirus 16/18 (HPV-16/18) genotypes and immediate histopathologic correlations in a Chinese population with negative cytology and positive high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing. METHODS Patients who had documented negative cytology with immediate follow-up (within the 6 months after negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy Papanicolaou [Pap] testing), including a histopathologic examination and/or hrHPV testing, between 2011 and 2018 were included, and the data were analyzed. RESULTS Among 1,424,182 Pap tests, 1,333,453 (93.6%) were interpreted as negative cytology. Although conventional Pap smears had the highest reporting rate, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 and higher (CIN-2+) lesions were detected significantly more with liquid-based cytology preparations (2.1%) than the conventional method (1.4%; P < .01). The overall hrHPV-positive rate was 14.9% (25,507 of 171,273) in the women with negative cytology. Among the 18,423 cytology-negative, HPV-positive cases tested with the Cobas assay, the overall HPV-16/18 prevalence was 24.7%, with 17.9% being HPV-16-positive, 6.2% being HPV-18-positive, and 0.6% being positive for both HPV-16 and HPV-18. The immediate histopathologic examination was documented for 21,796 women with cotesting results, including 8915 HPV-positive cases and 12,881 HPV-negative cases. CIN-2+ lesions were diagnosed in 15.2% of the HPV-16-positive cases; this rate was significantly higher than the rates seen in the HPV-18-positive cases (4.8%) and the cases positive for 1 of the other 12 types of HPV (3.0%). CONCLUSIONS This is by far the largest routine clinical practice report of HPV-16/18 genotyping and histopathologic examination in negative-cytology women and the first report of such an investigation in the Chinese population. This study indicates enhanced risk stratification with HPV-16/18 genotype testing in HPV-positive, cytology-negative women in the Chinese population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing provides a much more sensitive method of detection for high-grade lesions than cytology, but specificity is low. Here, we explore the extent to which full HPV genotyping, viral load, and multiplicity of types can be used to improve specificity. METHODS A population-based sample of 47,120 women undergoing cervical screening was tested for 13 high-risk HPV genotypes. Positive predictive values (PPV) for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 2 or worse (CIN2+; N = 3,449) and CIN3 or worse (CIN3+; N = 1,475) over 3 years of follow-up were estimated for HPV genotype and viral load. Weighted multivariate logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds of CIN2+ or CIN3+ according to genotype, multiplicity of types, and viral load. RESULTS High-risk HPV was detected in 15.4% of women. A hierarchy of HPV genotypes based on sequentially maximizing PPVs for CIN3+ found HPV16>33>31 to be the most predictive, followed sequentially by HPV18>35>58>45>52>59>51>39>56>68. After adjusting for higher ranked genotypes, the inclusion of multiple HPV infections added little to risk prediction. High viral loads for HPV18, 35, 52, and 58 carried more risk than low viral loads for HPV16, 31, and 33. High viral load for HPV16 was significantly more associated with CIN3+ than low viral load. CONCLUSIONS HPV genotype and viral load, but not multiplicity of HPV infections, are important predictors of CIN2+ and CIN3+. IMPACT The ability to identify women at higher risk of CIN2+ and CIN3+ based on both HPV genotype and viral load could be important for individualizing triage plans, particularly as HPV becomes the primary screening test.

Abstract
Background Stratified mucin-producing intraepithelial lesion (SMILE) is a rare precursor lesion in the uterine cervix that is considered a variant of adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS). Although human papillomavirus (HPV) is thought to be related to the development of SMILE, there is little information available on the detection of HPV integrated into the lesion. Case presentation A 30-year-old female underwent a routine uterine cervical cancer screening, and her Pap smear indicated the possible existence of atypical glandular cells. A cervical biopsy with endocervical curettage was performed. The histopathological analysis showed that she had SMILE and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) on her cervix. The lesion was found to be positive for HPV genotypes 52 and 68 by multiplex PCR. In situ hybridization with HPV RNA probes revealed that these HPV types were involved in the onset of HSIL and SMILE, respectively. Conclusions Rare, high-risk HPV genotypes may contribute to the development of SMILE, and their detection can be useful for preventing the progression to carcinoma and ensuring adequate patient management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To retrospectively analyse the incidence of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in women of different ages with high-risk (HR) human papillomavirus (HPV) but with normal cytology test results stratified by age and HPV genotype. METHODS In total, 1858 women with HR-HPV infection but with a normal smear who received a colposcopy and biopsy between 2015 and 2016 at our institution were included. The pathological results were retrospectively analysed after stratifying by age and HPV genotype. RESULTS Among the 1858 cases, the HSIL% in women aged 21-29 years (10.54%) was significantly different from that in women aged 40-49 years (19.85%; P < 0.05), whereas there was no significant difference in the HSIL% among women aged 21-29 years and those in the other age groups (P > 0.05). In total, 295 cases had single HPV16 infection. The HSIL% in patients with HPV16/18 infection was >15%, and the 40-49-year age group had the highest percentage at 48.48%. For other HR-HPV infections, the HSIL and SCC incidence rate was 10.41%, and there was no significant difference among the age groups; thus, women with other types of viral infections, regardless of age, should be referred to colposcopy. CONCLUSIONS Although HPV16 is the HPV with the highest risk, other HR-HPV infections can also cause a high percentage of HSILs and SCC in women with normal cytology. Therefore, it is necessary to refer HR-HPV-infected women aged ≥21 years for colposcopy in a timely manner to exclude potential cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer.

Abstract
Objectives To determine the BD Onclarity human papillomavirus (HPV) assay performance and risk values for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) or higher and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) or higher during Papanicolaou/HPV cotesting in a negative for intraepithelial lesions or malignancies (NILM) population. Methods In total, 22,383 of the 33,858 enrolled women were 30 years or older with NILM cytology. HPV+ and a subset of HPV– patients (3,219/33,858 combined; 9.5%) were referred to colposcopy/biopsy. Results Overall, 7.9% of women were Onclarity positive; HPV 16 had the highest prevalence (1.5%). Verification bias-adjusted (VBA) CIN2 or higher and CIN3 or higher prevalences were 0.9% and 0.3%, respectively. Onclarity had VBA CIN2 or higher (44.1%) and CIN3 or higher (69.5%) sensitivities, as well as CIN2 or higher (92.4%) and CIN3 or higher (92.3%) specificities—all similar to Hybrid Capture 2. HPV 16, 18, 45, and the other 11 genotypes had CIN3 or higher risks of 6.9%, 2.6%, 1.1%, and 2.2%, respectively. Conclusions Onclarity is clinically validated for cotesting in NILM women. Genotyping actionably stratifies women at greater CIN3 or higher risk.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate the clinical performance of novel detection kits for 14 high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) types with the BD Onclarity HPV Assay (Onclarity; Becton Dickinson, Sparks, MD). Methods Two cervical specimens from 144 women were obtained and placed in BD SurePath Collection Vials. The first specimen was used for cervical cytology and digene HC2 High-Risk HPV DNA Test (HC2; Qiagen, Germantown, MD), and the second specimen was used for Onclarity and Roche Cobas 4800 HPV (Cobas; Roche Molecular Systems, Pleasanton, CA). Other HPV genotyping kits were used for specimens identified as positive by Onclarity or Cobas. Results Fifty-three of 144 specimens were positive by Onclarity. Overall agreement rates of Onclarity with HC2 and Cobas were 93.8% and 94.4%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia type 2 or higher of Onclarity were similar to HC2 and Cobas. Conclusion The results showed that the clinical performance of Onclarity was equivalent to HC2 and Cobas.

Abstract
Based on scientific data showing that HPV testing provides better protection against cervical precancer and cancer than cytology, in 2011 the Dutch Health Council advised the Minister of Welfare, Health and Sports to replace cytology by HPV testing in the Dutch population-based screening programme. After a successful evaluation of the feasibility of HPV-based screening in 2014, primary HPV testing for cervical screening was implemented in 2017. The Netherlands has been one of the first countries worldwide to implement nationwide HPV-based screening and its experience with the new programme is therefore followed with great interest. In this manuscript, we present an overview of the studies that were instrumental in the choice of HPV assay and triage strategy, the adjustment of screening starting and exit ages and intervals, and the implementation of HPV self-sampling. Finally, we review the cost-effectiveness of the proposed new screening algorithm and we explore future perspectives. The rationale behind the new Dutch HPV-based screening programme, which is based on risk management, could serve as a guidance to other countries that are planning to implement HPV-based screening in the near future.

Abstract
Persistent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a prerequisite for cervical cancer development. Few studies investigated clearance of high-risk HPV in low-and-middle-income countries. Our study investigated HPV clearance and persistence over four years in women from North Tongu District, Ghana. In 2010/2011, cervical swabs of 500 patients were collected and HPV genotyped (nested multiplex PCR) in Accra, Ghana. In 2014, 104 women who previously tested positive for high-risk HPV and remained untreated were re-tested for HPV. Cytobrush samples were genotyped (GP5+/6+ PCR & Luminex-MPG readout) in Berlin, Germany. Positively tested patients underwent colposcopy and treatment if indicated. Of 104 women, who tested high-risk HPV+ in 2010/2011, seven (6,7%; 95%CI: 2.7–13.4%) had ≥1 persistent high-risk‐infection after ~4 years (mean age 39 years). Ninety-seven (93,3%; 95%CI: 86.6–97.3%) had cleared the original infection, while 22 (21.2%; 95%CI: 13.8–30.3%) had acquired new high-risk infections with other genotypes. Persistent types found were HPV 16, 18, 35, 39, 51, 52, 58, and 68. Among those patients, one case of CIN2 (HPV 68) and one micro-invasive cervical cancer (HPV 16) were detected. This longitudinal observational data suggest that single HPV screening rounds may lead to over-referral. Including type-specific HPV re-testing or additional triage methods could help reduce follow-up rates. High-risk HPV genotype-specific clearance rates of 93.3% after 4 years. New infections with other high-risk HPV were 21.2%. New infections may overestimate women at risk if non-genotyping repeat HPV-testing is used for triage. Type-specific HPV genotyping reduces follow-up rates, for example by colposcopy.

Int J Cancer 2019; 144:2339-2346. [PMID: 30565673 DOI: 10.1002/ijc.32004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2018] [Revised: 09/21/2018] [Accepted: 10/31/2018] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
We studied whether triage of human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive women participating in an HPV-based screening programme can be improved by including the HPV result at the previous screen in the triage algorithm. We analyzed data of a subgroup of 366 women from the POBASCAM trial, screened by cytology and HPV cotesting. Women were included if they tested HPV-positive in the second HPV-based screening round. We evaluated the clinical performance of 16 strategies, consisting of cytology, HPV genotyping, and/or previous screen HPV result. The clinical endpoint was cervical precancer or cancer (CIN3+). The current Dutch triage testing policy for HPV-positive women is to refer women for colposcopy if they have abnormal cytology at baseline or after 6-18 months. In the second HPV-based screening round, this strategy yielded a negative predictive value (NPV) of 95.8% (95% confidence interval: 91.9-98.2) and colposcopy referral rate of 37.6% (32.3-43.2%). Replacing repeat cytology by the previous screen HPV result yielded a similar NPV (96.9%, 93.3-98.9) and colposcopy referral rate (38.8%, 33.4-44.4). A higher NPV (99.2%, 96.3-100%) at the cost of a higher colposcopy referral rate (49.2%, 43.6-54.8) was achieved when cytology was combined with HPV16/18 genotyping. The other 13 triage strategies yielded a lower NPV, a higher colposcopy referral rate or performed similarly but required additional testing. HPV-positive women in the second HPV-based screening round can be suitably managed by cytology, HPV16/18 genotyping and the HPV result at the previous screen, obviating the need for repeat testing of HPV-positive, cytology negative women.
