ObjectivesThe human papillomavirus (HPV) is a well-known cause of cervical cancer. HPV tests are used as an adjunct test to decrease the false-negative rate of cytological screening. However, attempts are being made to replace the cytological screening with HPV tests. Therefore, this study was performed to examine the possibility of using HPV tests as screening test.Materials and methodsThe results of the tests that were performed at the same time including the ThinPrep cytology, the high-risk group hybrid capture II (HC-II) test, the HPV DNA chip (HD-C) test, and a punch biopsy were compared in 400 women who were referred to us due to abnormal cytology or cervicogram. The accuracy of each test was then evaluated, and the type of virus was investigated using a HD-C test.ResultsThe positive predictive values detected by the high-risk group HC-II test and HD-C test according to the histological diagnosis outcomes were 56.8 and 53.8%, respectively, for cervicitis; 91.5 and 91.5%, respectively, for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia I (CIN I); 88.1% and 81.0%, respectively, for CIN II; 88.6 and 84.2%, respectively, for CIN III, and 92.5 and 88.7%, respectively, for cancer (in 53 patients). The most prevalent types of HPV according to the HPV tests were types 16, 58, 18, and 52 in which type 16 was detected in the more advanced lesions. The sensitivity was 88.4% for the ThinPrep cytology, 89.9% for the HC-II for the high-risk group, and 86.2% for the HD-C test.ConclusionThese results suggest the possibility of using the HC-II and HD-C tests as screening tests, which have a similar sensitivity as the ThinPrep cytology. Nonetheless, randomized controlled trials will be needed before the actual application of the HPV tests as screening tests. Despite the fact that the importance of HPV type 16 in cancer development was confirmed, the prevalence of types 58 and 52 were relatively high compared with those found in other studies, showing a need for further studies on this subject. These HPV types need to be considered in vaccine development.

Cervical cancer (CC) is a common gynecological malignancy for which prognostic and therapeutic biomarkers are urgently needed. The signature based on immune-related lncRNAs (IRLs) of CC has never been reported. This study is aimed at establishing an IRL signature for patients with CC. A cohort of 326 CC and 21 normal tissue samples with corresponding clinical information was included in this study. Twenty-eight IRLs were collected according to the Pearson correlation analysis between the immune score and lncRNA expression ( p < 0.01 ). Four IRLs (BZRAP1-AS1, EMX2OS, ZNF667-AS1, and CTC-429P9.1) with the most significant prognostic values ( p < 0.05 ) were identified which demonstrated an ability to stratify patients into the low-risk and high-risk groups by developing a risk score model. It was observed that patients in the low-risk group showed longer overall survival (OS) than those in the high-risk group in the training set, valid set, and total set. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) for the four-IRL signature in predicting the one-, two-, and three-year survival rates was larger than 0.65. In addition, the low-risk and high-risk groups displayed different immune statuses in GSEA. These IRLs were also significantly correlated with immune cell infiltration. Our results showed that the IRL signature had a prognostic value for CC. Meanwhile, the specific mechanisms of the four IRLs in the development of CC were ascertained preliminarily.

This study was designed to investigate the genotypes of human papillomavirus (HPV) in Korean women who had abnormal cervical cytology and to evaluate the clinical accuracy of HPV DNA chip analysis for the diagnosis of cervical neoplasia. Liquid-based cytology preparations, HPV DNA chip analysis, and cervical biopsy were performed in 2358 women. High-risk HPV was identified in 23.5% of 1650 histologically confirmed normal samples (including cervicitis and squamous metaplasia) and in 81.8% of 708 samples with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and carcinoma (P< 0.01). The major prevalent high-risk HPV genotypes in 381 samples of CIN II/III were HPV-16, -58, -33, and -31, in order of prevalence rate (average overall, 78.0%), and HPV-16, -18, -58, and -33 (average overall, 81.2%) in 133 samples of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The infection rate of HPV-16 was significantly higher than that of other high-risk HPV genotypes in all normal, CIN, and SCC cases (P< 0.01) and increased with more advanced squamous cervical lesions (P< 0.01). The detection accuracy of high-risk HPV using HPV DNA chip analysis for CIN II or worse was as follows: sensitivity 84% (81–87%), specificity 72% (70–74%), positive predictive value 47% (44–50%), and negative predictive value 94% (92–95%). These results suggest that HPV DNA chip analysis may be a reliable diagnostic tool for the detection of cervical neoplasia and that there are geographic differences in the distribution of high-risk HPV genotypes.

Abstract: The incidence and mortality rates of cervical cancer in developing countries are relatively high compared to developed countries. The main risk factor for cervical cancer is high risk human papilloma virus (HPV) infection, such as types 16 and 18. Types of high-risk HPV expresses oncoproteins E6 and E7 which play an essential role in the pathogenesis of cervical carcinoma through inhibition of the activity of gene group expression products that play a role in suppressing tumor growth, such as p53 and pRB. This process will cause morphological changes in the squamous epithelium from precancerous lesions to cancer. The development of squamous epithelial cell cancer can be prevented through screening tests in order to detect cervical cancer early. This study was aimed to obtain the oncogenesis, morphology, and early detection modality of cervical carcinoma. This was a literature review study using three databases, as follows: ClinicalKey, PubMed, and Google Scholar. The results explained that p53 and pRB suppression by high-risk HPV oncoproteins E6 and E7 played an important role in the pathogenesis of cervical carcinoma. The most common histological type is squamous cell carcinoma. Screening tests such as visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA), Pap smears and HPV DNA have an important role as modalities for early detection of malignancy. More specifically VIA and Pap smears are suitable for Indonesia which is a developing country, especially when implemented in peripheral areas.Keywords: oncogenesis; morphological changes; early detection; cervical carcinoma  Abstrak: Insidens dan mortalitas kanker serviks di negara berkembang relatif tinggi dibandingkan negara maju. Faktor risiko utama dari kanker serviks adalah infeksi human papilloma virus (HPV) risiko tinggi yaitu tipe 16 dan 18. HPV tipe risiko tinggi mengekspresikan onkoprotein E6 dan E7, yang berperan penting dalam patogenesis karsinoma serviks melalui inhibisi terhadap aktivitas produk-produk ekspresi kelompok gen yang berperan dalam menekan pertumbuhan tumor, seperti p53 dan pRB.

e17521 Background: To examine trends and outcomes of systemic chemotherapy for high-risk early-stage cervical cancer. Methods: This retrospective observational study queried the National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program from 2000-2016. Surgically-treated women with stage T1-2 cervical cancer who had high-risk factors (lymph node metastasis and/or parametrial invasion) and received adjuvant therapy were examined. Propensity score inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to assess the survival estimates for chemotherapy use versus external beam with chemotherapy (CCRT). Results: Among 2, 462 women with high-risk factor, 185 (7.5%) received systemic chemotherapy. Utilization of chemotherapy has significantly increased over time in multivariable analysis (adjusted-odds ratio per 1-year increment, 1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.09). In weighted models, adjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT had comparable survival among women aged < 40 (hazard ratio [HR] for all-cause mortality 0.73, 95%CI 0.41-1.33), adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous histologies (HR 0.90, 95%CI 0.62-1.32), and high-risk group based on nodal metastasis alone (HR 1.17, 95%CI 0.84-1.62). In contrast, chemotherapy was associated with increased all-cause mortality compared to CCRT among women aged ≥40 (HR 1.57, 95%CI 1.19-2.06), squamous histology (HR 1.63, 95%CI 1.19-2.22), and high-risk group per parametrial invasion alone (HR 1.87, 95%CI 1.09-3.20) or parametrial invasion with nodal metastasis (HR 1.64, 95%CI 1.06-2.52). Conclusions: Utilization of systemic chemotherapy for high-risk early-stage cervical cancer is increasing in the United States. Survival effects of adjuvant chemotherapy varied per patient and tumor factors, and this indication may be limited to those who are < 40 years with non-squamous histology and absence of parametrial invasion.

Since persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is a known cause of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer, several HPV DNA detection methods have been developed during the last decade. The Hybrid Capture II (HCII) assay, which allows detection of 13 high-risk HPVs, has been well validated; however, it does not provide any genotype-specific information. The oncogenic activity of HPV is dependent on its genotype. The prophylactic effects of HPV vaccines are based on L1 virus-like particles and are limited mainly to infections corresponding to the HPV type used to develop the immunogen. Therefore, accurate detection and genotyping are important for treatment as well as screening. A newly developed HPV genotyping system using a liquid bead array was evaluated with 286 cervical samples and the results were compared to two commercially available methods, i.e. the HCII and HPV DNA chip assays, and sequencing. The sensitivity for detection of high-risk HPV was 85.3 % (HCII), 94.7 % (DNA chip) and 99.0 % (liquid bead array). The liquid bead array showed almost perfect agreement (κ=0.95) with genotype information confirmed by sequencing, while substantial agreement (κ=0.8) was observed between DNA chip and sequencing. Furthermore, the liquid bead array had superior detection of 26 HPVs (16 high-risk and 10 low-risk types) and has proven to be as accurate as sequencing in identifying individual HPV types, even in cases with multiple HPV infections.

Objective: Our objective was to verify the sensitivity and specificity of dual immunocytochemistry staining for p16 and Ki-67 in liquid-based samples (the “dual” assay) for cervical lesion screening, compared to biopsy findings and human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA molecular detection. Study Design: Sensitivity, specificity, and positive (PPV) and negative (NPV) predictive values for the “dual immunocytochemistry assay” were calculated and compared to histopathological results and to high-risk HPV DNA detection in adult women or teenagers submitted to cervical cancer screening. Results: A total of 151 women were included. The majority (96.2%) of those with negative dual assay results had lower biopsy grades (p < 0.001). Women with cytology results suggestive of cervical cancer had positive dual immunocytochemistry assay results more frequently (p < 0.001), and these positive results were also significantly associated with biopsy findings (p < 0.001) and with high-risk genotype HPV infection (p = 0.007). Specificity and PPV for the dual assay were 0.972 (0.855–0.999) and 0.800 (0.284–0.995), respectively, and 1.000 (0.590–1.000) and 1.000 (0.631–1.000) for HPV detection. Conclusions: The dual immunocytochemistry assay had high specificity and PPV. It reveals a persistent HPV infection, avoiding the need for new tissue collections for biopsies or hybrid capture.
