Comparison of Commercial Hybridization and Automated Transcription-Mediated Amplification Modalities for Detection of High-Risk Human Papillomavirus Nucleic Acid

摘要

Assessment of 4,056 cytology collections by Cervista HPV HR and APTIMA HPV yielded 88.7% concordance, with increased detection by Cervista in patients with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) and patients negative for intraepithelial lesions and malignancy (NILM) (P ≤ 0.02). Both assays detected ≥91.7% of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2+ (CIN2+) lesions. A total of 262 specimens demonstrated luminescence within all three Cervista oligonucleotide mixtures (triple positive). APTIMA HPV and PCR-based microarray confirmed triple-positive results at rates of 7.3% and 5.9%, respectively.
