Abstract
Objective: The Alinity m HR HPV assay is a qualitative molecular assay that simultaneously detects high-risk human papillomavirus (hr HPV) genotypes HPV16, 18, and 45 and reports the 11 other hr HPV genotypes in 2 aggregates as other HR HPV A (HPV31, 33, 52, 58) and other HR HPV B (HPV35, 39, 51, 56, 59, 66, 68). Here, we describe the prevalence of hr HPV genotypes in the Alinity m HR HPV assay US clinical trial population stratified by age, cytology, and cervical disease status.
Materials and methods: This study included 11,532 women undergoing routine cervical cancer screening.
Results: Overall hr HPV positivity decreased with age. Other HR HPV B genotypes had the highest positivity followed by other HR HPV A, HPV16, HPV45, and HPV18. In the population with ≥atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance cytology, other HR HPV A and other HR HPV B genotypes had the highest positivity rates. HPV16 and other HR HPV A positivity rates were highest in specimens with ≥cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3 by histology.
Conclusions: This analysis of primary screening participants in the Alinity m HR HPV assay US clinical trial demonstrates the benefits of including genotype-specific testing in cervical cancer screening programs.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease is the source for the latest science about benign and malignant conditions of the cervix, vagina, vulva, and anus.
The Journal publishes peer-reviewed original research original research that addresses prevalence, causes, mechanisms, diagnosis, course, treatment, and prevention of lower genital tract disease. We publish clinical guidelines, position papers, cost-effectiveness analyses, narrative reviews, and systematic reviews, including meta-analyses. We also publish papers about research and reporting methods, opinions about controversial medical issues. Of particular note, we encourage material in any of the above mentioned categories that is related to improving patient care, avoiding medical errors, and comparative effectiveness research. We encourage publication of evidence-based guidelines, diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms, and decision aids. Original research and reviews may be sub-classified according to topic: cervix and HPV, vulva and vagina, perianal and anal, basic science, and education and learning.
The scope and readership of the journal extend to several disciplines: gynecology, internal medicine, family practice, dermatology, physical therapy, pathology, sociology, psychology, anthropology, sex therapy, and pharmacology. The Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease highlights needs for future research, and enhances health care.
The Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease is the official journal of the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology, the International Society for the Study of Vulvovaginal Disease, and the International Federation of Cervical Pathology and Colposcopy, and sponsored by the Australian Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology and the Society of Canadian Colposcopists.
