Human Papillomavirus Research: Where Should We Place Our Bets?

Abstract: Background: Massive strides have been made with respect to primary and secondary prevention of human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated disease as a result of prophylactic vaccination and cervical screening based on molecular HPV testing. However, cervical cancer continues to be an important clinical and societal burden. Additionally, other HPV-associated cancers, for which there are no screening programmes, are rising. Finally, the optimal combination of vaccination and screening strategies will require careful … Show more

“…The proportion of rare histological subtypes in our study was also small, so this element would benefit from further investigation. Moreover, much more emphasis was placed on cancers FIGO stage I and II as previously published data indicate that aberrant methylation is an early event in cervical carcinogenesis 14,29 . An intentional limitation of our study is that we excluded CIN1 and CIN2 which would be present in a real‐world setting.…”

“…Over 100 known types of HPVs, and they are grouped into non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic types [2]. The common noncarcinogenic types include HPV types 6,11,40,42,43,44 and 54; these HPV types atypically cause cancers [2,3], and typical examples of the diseases caused by them are papilloma, verruca, condyloma and focal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck's disease) [4]. On the other hand, the common carcinogenic types include HPV types 16,18,31,33,35,39 and 45 [2,3], and they are known for causing oropharyngeal, anal and genital cancers [1][2][3][4][5].…”

“…F I G U R E 5 Network visualisation of author keyword co-occurrence.research is sacrosanct in designing appropriate people-centred interventions. More so, multidisciplinary efforts will broaden HPV research agenda to have a better understanding in implementing best practices[40]. Based on the above, it will be plausible if research groups or centres of excellence on HPV can be established across multiple research organisations in Africa to boost HPV research productivity in the Social Science discipline as well as other disciplines having low outputs on HPV.…”

“…Literature supporting the importance and cost effectiveness of cervical cancer prevention programs and HPV vaccination is becoming more robust through the years. 25,26 A strong evidence base could also help win high-level nongovernmental advocacy, which in turn could mobilize resources toward implementation and sustainment of a national HPV vaccination program.…”
