NCT03357991

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the positive and negative predictive value of E6/E7 mRNA expression for anal HSIL and its capacity to predict incident HSIL in HIV + MSM. We also analyse the cost-effectiveness of this new screening strategy. It is an ambispective study with 355 participants and a follow-up period of 2 to 5 years.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Determine the predictive value of HPV E6/E7 mRNA for the detection of HSIL and its ability to predict incident cases.

    Determination of HPV E6/E7 ARNm in anal samples of 355 HIV + MSM. Correlation of the detection of HPV E6/E7 ARNm with the diagnosis of HSIL in this patients performing anal cytology an HRA at the first visit and during the follow-up.

    2-5 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Cost-effectiveness analysis of an anal cancer screening strategy based on HPV E6/E7 mRNA analysis.

    2-5 years

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Adult HIV-infected MSM visited in the HIV Unit of Bellvitge's University Hospital and underwent routine anal cancer screening. Retrospective participants: patients attended between January 2015 and December 2016 and with part of the anal smear sample stored. Prospective participants: patients who start anal cancer screening during the inclusion period.

You may qualify if:

  • Men who have sex with men \>= 18 years
  • HIV documented infection
  • Signature of the informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous diagnosis of anal cancer.
  • Suspect infiltrating anal cancer, requiring exploration under anesthesia and surgical removal for histological confirmation.
  • Other factors that could prevent correct diagnosis and monitoring of the anal dysplastic lesions (test intolerance, proctological pathology that does not allow HRA, etc.).

Biospecimen

Retention: SAMPLES WITH DNA

1. Detection of anal HPV * Hybrid Capture® 2 HPV DNA (QIAGEN Inc., Gaithersburg, Maryland; EE.UU): enzyme linked immunoabsorvent assay based on a sandwich hybridisation that allows a qualitative measure of DNA of 13 HPV. * Linear Array HPV Genotyping Test (Roche Molecular Systems Inc., Alameda, California, EE.UU): it detects a region within the HPV L1 that share 37 anogenital HPV genotypes. * Detection of E6/E7 VPH mRNA using APTIMA® HPV Test (Gen-Probe Inc., San Diego, California, EE.UU): it allows the qualitative detection of HPV E6/E7 mRNA from 14 high-risk HPVs. 2. Anal cytology: processed with Thinprep Pap Test (Hologic, Marlborough, Massachusetts, USA). The swab is deposited into preserved liquid based cytology: PreservCyt Solution. 3. HRA with biopsy of suspicious lesions
