Use of the Aptima mRNA high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) assay compared to a DNA HR-HPV assay in the English cervical screening programme: a decision tree model based economic evaluation.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:To estimate the impact of using the Aptima messenger RNA (mRNA) high-risk human papilloma virus (HR-HPV) assay versus a DNA HR-HPV assay in a primary HPV cervical screening programme. DESIGN:One hypothetical cohort followed for 3?years through HPV primary cervical screening. SETTING:England. PARTICIPANTS:A hypothetical cohort of women aged 25-65 years tested in the National Health Service (NHS) Cervical Screening Programme (CSP) for first call or routine recall testing. METHODS:A decision tree parameterised with data from the CSP (2017/18) and the HORIZON study. Uncertainty analyses were conducted using data from the FOCAL and GAST studies, other DNA HPV tests in addition to one-way and probabilistic sensitivity and scenarios analyses, to test the robustness of results. INTERVENTIONS:Aptima mRNA HR-HPV assay and a DNA HR-HPV assay (cobas 4800 HPV assay). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Primary: total colposcopies and total costs for the cohort. Secondary: total HPV and cytology tests, number lost to follow-up. RESULTS:At baseline for a population of 2.25?million women, an estimated £15.4?million (95%?credibility intervals (CI) £6.5 to 24.1?million) could be saved and 28?009 (95% CI 27?499 to 28 527) unnecessary colposcopies averted if Aptima mRNA assays are used instead of a DNA assay, with 90?605 fewer unnecessary HR-HPV and 253?477 cytology tests performed. These savings are due to a lower number of HPV positive samples in the mRNA arm. When data from other primary HPV screening trials were compared, results indicated that using the Aptima mRNA assay generated cost savings and reduced testing in every scenario. CONCLUSION:Using the Aptima mRNA assay versus a DNA assay would almost certainly yield cost savings and reduce unnecessary testing and procedures, benefiting the NHS and women in the CSP.

Project description:The Alinity m HR HPV assay (Alinity) is a novel human papillomavirus (HPV) assay that individually identifies genotypes HPV16, HPV18, and HPV45 while reporting on 11 other high-risk HPV (hrHPV) genotypes in two aggregates: HPV31/33/52/58 and HPV35/39/51/56/59/66/68. The clinical performance of Alinity for screening for cervical cancer was evaluated in population-based settings. For women aged ≥30 years, the clinical sensitivity (n = 68) and specificity (n = 3,077) for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2+ (CIN2+) of Alinity were 100.0% and 92.4%, respectively, and were not inferior to those of the Qiagen Digene Hybrid Capture 2 high-risk HPV DNA assay (hc2) (P = 0.0006 and P < 0.0001, respectively). The intralaboratory reproducibility and interlaboratory agreement of Alinity were 96.7% (kappa, 0.92) and 98.7% (kappa, 0.97), respectively. In the group ≥30 years of age, women who were baseline hrHPV negative had a lower risk for CIN2+ at 3 years using Alinity (0.04%) than those with a normal baseline cytology (0.65%) and had a risk comparable to that determined by the Abbott RealTime High Risk HPV assay (0.04%), hc2 (0.08%), or the Roche Cobas 4800 HPV assay (0.04%). High-risk HPV16/18 infection was associated with a significantly higher baseline and 3-year CIN2+ and CIN3+ risk than the absence of HPV16/18 or the presence of hrHPVs at the baseline (all P values were <0.05). The baseline CIN2+ risk was 8.8% for those with HPV31/33/52/58 infection and 2.5% for those with HPV35/39/51/56/59/66/68 infection, while the 3-year CIN2+ risk was 17.0% and 4.9%, respectively (relative risk, 3.4 [P = 0.03] and 3.5 [P = 0.003], respectively), suggesting that extended genotyping by Alinity may be valuable in improving patient risk stratification. Alinity fulfills international consensus guideline criteria for primary cervical cancer screening and can be considered clinically validated, demonstrating safety comparable to that of other clinically validated HPV tests.

Project description:Multiple human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes often coexist within the cervical epithelia and are frequently detected together in various grades of the cervical neoplasia. To date, only a few reports exist on multiple HPV infections of HPV in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (XUAR). In the present study, we investigated the prevalence of High-Risk HPV (HR-HPV) genotypes and multiple infections. Cervical cytology samples were collected from 428 women who presented cervical abnormalities. Genotyping of HPV was performed by polymerase chain reaction-sequencing based typing (PCR-SBT) using consensus primers and specific primers. Of them, 166 samples were positive for HPV according to PCR results using the consensus primers. These samples contained cervical abnormalities enriched with inflammation (n = 107), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I (n = 19), CINII-III (n = 9) and cervical cancer (n = 31). Of the 166 HPV positive samples as determined by PCR analysis, 151 were further typed by PCR-SBT using 19 pairs of genotype-specific primers. Using this method, 17 different HR-HPV genotypes were identified. The most frequently observed HPV genotypes were HPV16 (44.0%, 73/166), 53 (28.9%, 48/166), 52 (25.3%, 42/166), 58 (22.3%, 37/166) and 35 (17.5%, 29/166). The proportions of single and multiple infections in the HPV-positive specimens were 34.9% and 65.1%, respectively. Multiple HPV types were most prevalent in the inflammatory state (63.0%), followed by cervical cancer (24.1%), CINI (11.1%), and CINII-III (1.9%). The results of our data analyses suggested that i) multiple HPV infection is not necessarily correlated with the severity of cervical abnormalities; and ii) among the multiple HPV infections, double infections combined with HPV16 is the most common. In addition, L1 full-length sequences of the top five high-risk HPV genotypes were amplified and sequenced. According to the L1 sequence of the epidemic genotypes that were amplified, we found that these genotypes contained the sequence point mutation, and that some of these genotypes further showed amino acid modifications. These results provide a basis for the construction of a polyvalent vaccine that is suitable for use in the XUAR, even in economically challenged communities located in China.
