IPVS policy statement on HPV nucleic acid testing guidance for those utilising/considering HPV as primary precancer screening: Quality assurance and quality control issues

Suzanne M. Garland et al.

Summary: It is advised to use only clinically validated HPV assays that have met internationally accepted performance criteria for primary cervical screening. Furthermore, the assays should be demonstrated to be suitable for use in the specific laboratory where they will be performed, and the availability of quality materials manuals and frameworks can be helpful in this process. Importantly, there is a fundamental shortage of well-validated, low-cost, low-complexity HPV tests that have demonstrated utility in a near-patient setting, posing a significant challenge and emphasizing the need for future development to achieve the WHO's goal of cervical cancer elimination.

Worldwide use of HPV self-sampling for cervical cancer screening

B. Serrano et al.

Summary: Self-sampling for HPV screening is increasingly recognized as a valid alternative to clinician collection, reaching underscreened women effectively. The global use of HPV self-sampling is currently limited, but efforts are being made to increase its adoption in the coming years. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the introduction of HPV self-sampling as a key element in expanding screening coverage.

Jaimie Z. Shing et al.

Summary: A long-term follow-up study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of HPV vaccination against cervical intraepithelial neoplasia caused by non-preventable HPV types. The study found that clinical unmasking could attenuate the long-term effectiveness of HPV vaccination in reducing high-grade diseases. However, the net benefit of vaccination for cervical cancer prevention is still considerable.

Which is the best management for women with normal cervical cytologic findings despite positivity for non-16/18 high risk human papillomaviruses?

Ming Wu et al.

Summary: Women who are HPV positive but have normal cytology are the main focus of screening after HPV vaccination. The distribution of HPV genotypes has changed significantly and managing these women with normal cytology, non-HPV16/18 infections, or persistent infections has become uncertain. Current recommendations include retesting and surveillance, but these are not always applicable. Different triage strategies should be considered to detect high-grade cervical lesions, such as p16/Ki67 cytology assay and genotyping.

Cost-effectiveness analysis of the nonavalent human papillomavirus vaccine for the prevention of cervical cancer in Singapore

Lee Cheng Phua et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of replacing the bivalent HPV vaccine with the nonavalent HPV vaccine in the national school-based HPV vaccination program in Singapore. Results showed that the nonavalent vaccine had an ICER of S$61,629 per quality-adjusted life year gained in the base case, indicating that it may not be a cost-effective option compared to the bivalent vaccine for school-based HPV vaccination of 13-year old female students in Singapore. Considerable price reductions would be necessary to justify its inclusion in the school-based program in the future.

Summary: The study aimed to provide an updated overview of regression, persistence, and progression rates of conservatively managed CIN 1/CIN 2/CIN 3. Most CIN 1/CIN 2 cases will regress spontaneously in less than 24 months, with the highest regression rates seen in high-risk HPV-negative and young women, while progression to cancer is less than 0.5%. Conservative management may be considered, especially in fertile women with expected high compliance.
