The WID-CIN test, using DNA methylation markers, accurately identifies HR-HPV positive women with CIN3+ lesions, allowing for early diagnosis. This test has high sensitivity and specificity, offering guidance for clinical decision-making and cervical cancer screening.
Background: Cervical screening is transitioning from primary cytology to primary human papillomavirus (HPV) testing. HPV testing is highly sensitive but there is currently no high-specificity triage method for colposcopy referral to detect cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 or above (CIN3+) in women positive for high-risk (hr) HPV subtypes. An objective, automatable test that could accurately perform triage, independently of sample heterogeneity and age, is urgently required. Methods: We analyzed DNA methylation at similar to 850,000 CpG sites across the genome in a total of 1254 cervical liquid-based cytology (LBC) samples from cases of screen-detected histologically verified CIN1-3+ (98% hrHPV-positive) and population-based control women free from any cervical disease (100% hrHPV-positive). Samples were provided by a state-of-the-art population-based cohort biobank and consisted of (i) a discovery set of 170 CIN3+ cases and 202 hrHPV-positive/cytology-negative controls; (ii) a diagnostic validation set of 87 CIN3+, 90 CIN2, 166 CIN1, and 111 hrHPV-positive/cytology-negative controls; and (iii) a predictive validation set of 428 cytology-negative samples (418 hrHPV-positive) of which 210 were diagnosed with CIN3+ in the upcoming 1-4 years and 218 remained disease-free. Results: We developed the WID-CIN (Women's cancer risk IDentification-Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia) test, a DNA methylation signature consisting of 5000 CpG sites. The receiver operating characteristic area under the curve (AUC) in the independent diagnostic validation set was 0.92 (95% CI 0.88-0.96). At 75% specificity (<= CIN1), the overall sensitivity to detect CIN3+ is 89.7% (83.3-96.1) in all and 92.7% (85.9-99.6) and 65.6% (49.2-82.1) in women aged >= 30 and <30. In hrHPV-positive/cytology-negative samples in the predictive validation set, the WID-CIN detected 54.8% (48.0-61.5) cases developing 1-4 years after sample donation in all ages or 56.9% (47.6-66.2) and 53.5% (43.7-63.2) in >= 30 and <30-year-old women, at a specificity of 75%. Conclusions: The WID-CIN test identifies the vast majority of hrHPV-positive women with current CIN3+ lesions. In the absence of cytologic abnormalities, a positive WID-CIN test result is likely to indicate a significantly increased risk of developing CIN3+ in the near future.
