Abstract
Background/objectives: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) have been used to measure anti-human-papillomavirus (HPV) immunoglobulin IgG. The goal of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of ELISAs measuring different HPV immunoglobulin isotypes, IgG1, 2, 3, and 4, IgA, and IgM, against HPV16.
Methods: Seventy-two serum samples collected from participants in the Costa Rica HPV Vaccine Trial (CVT) and immunized with bivalent HPV vaccine (2vHPV) were used for reproducibility assessment. IgG2 and IgG4 levels were too low to be detected. Levels of IgG1, IgG3, IgA, and IgM were measured, and the data were used to calculate intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and coefficients of variation (CVs).
Results: CVs were assessed between technicians (12.8-22.7%) and across days (6.2-30.6%). The overall CVs ranged from 7.7-31.1%. IgM ELISA showed higher CVs (15.8-31.1%) than IgG1, IgG3, and IgA (6.2-22.7%). All ICC values were >98.7%. IgG3 was detected in all samples, while IgG1 and IgA had >86.3% detectability and IgM had 62.1% detectability. Pearson correlational analyses between different antibodies all showed significant correlations (p ≤ 0.001), except when comparing IgGs or IgA to IgM (p = 0.29-0.53).
Conclusions: Our data showed that these ELISAs are reproducible and detect isotype antibodies to HPV16 L1 across a range of concentrations in 2vHPV-vaccinated participants.
