Objective: To develop a new platform for genotyping human papillomavirus(HPV) and to investigate its effect in clinical application.

Methods: By combining L1 consensus PCR and multiplex hybridization using a Luminex xMAP system-based suspension array, we developed a rapid high-throughput assay,the HPV DNA suspension array (HPV-SA), capable of simultaneously typing 30 HPVs, including 18 high-risk HPV genotypes and 12 low-risk HPV genotypes. 810 clinical specimens were used to investigate the effect of HPV-SA. Veracity of the genotyping result was verified by E7 type-specific PCR-DNA sequencing.

Results: Among the 810 clinical specimens, 243 were found to be HPV positive,including high-risk HPV subtypes 16, 18, 26, 31, 33, 39, 45, 51, 53, 56, 58, 59, 66, 68, 73 and 82,and low-risk HPV6, 11, 34, 54, 61, 67, 70 and 84. The sensitivity tested by standard samples was up to 10 copies of HPV DNA.

Conclusion: The HPV-SA developed here showed high sensitivity and specificity, suitable to be applied in clinical practice for HPV diagnosis and investigation on the prevalence of HPV sub-types.

Purpose: Blood-borne, cell-free DNA has been proposed as a means of individualizing the management of human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive oropharyngeal carcinoma.

Methods And Materials: This study was designed based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) statement. A comprehensive literature search of peer-reviewed publications from January 2013 to January 2024 was undertaken to identify prospective studies pertaining to the use of circulating HPV-DNA for oropharyngeal carcinoma.

To assess the diagnostic accuracy of self-collected urine and vaginal samples for the identification of precancerous cervical lesions in the referral population using high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) assays based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It was a prospective study carried out in China from June 2021 to March 2022. The vaginal and urine samples were collected and analyzed by using a newly developed specific hrHPV PCR test, and matched cervical samples were analyzed by using an approved hrHPV DNA test.

Almost all cervical cancers are caused by human papillomaviruses (HPVs). In most cases, HPV DNA is integrated into the human genome. We found that tumor-specific, HPV-human DNA junctions are detectable in serum cell-free DNA of a fraction of cervical cancer patients at the time of initial treatment and/or at six months following treatment.

Background: Induction chemotherapy (IC) followed by chemoradiation (CRT) is one treatment approach for patients with locoregionally advanced oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) associated with human papillomavirus (HPV). This pilot study aimed to assess whether a circulating tumor (ct) DNA assay outperforms PET-CT in assessing treatment response in patients with HPV + OPSCC treated with induction chemotherapy (IC) followed by chemoradiation (CRT).

Materials And Methods: Patients treated with IC and definitive CRT for HPV + OPSCC were included.

All papillomaviruses encode an E2 protein and it is essential for the viral life cycle. E2 has three domains; a carboxyl-terminal DNA binding and dimerization domain, an amino-terminal protein interaction domain and a hinge region linking these two. Following homo-dimerization human papillomavirus E2 binds to four 12bp palindromic DNA sequences located in the non-coding long control region (LCR) of the viral genome.
