Globally speaking Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted infections. The link between persistent infection and cervical cancer has led to the emergence of cancer screening programs to better stratify women and their risk of developing cervical cancer. Over 150 HPV types have been identified, some of which have been associated as major risk factors in cervical cancer. The clinical significance of persistence and clearance rates of virus over time on the severity and progression, as well as co-infection of high- and low-risk HPV types, have recently been identified as factors for disease progression. However, the current HPV diagnostic tools are limited in their use for the detection, identification and differentiation of multiple HPV genotypes.
The Papilloplex® High Risk HPV test has been designed to address these unmet medical needs by targeting 14 HPV genotypes to better stratify disease risk and progression. This test, based on GeneFirst’s proprietary MPA Technology, aids our understanding of genotype-specific HPV infection in developing strategies to enhance the prevention and management of cervical cancer. ​
