Comparison of HPV Antibodies Measured Prior to Diagnosis of Anal, Cervical, Oropharyngeal, Penile and Vaginal Cancers in the HPV Cancer Cohort Consortium

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Antibodies against HPV proteins can provide pre‐diagnostic information about cancer development. We described the prevalence of antibodies to proteins of oncogenic HPV types prior to diagnosis of HPV‐related cancers. We analysed pre‐diagnostic blood from 1700 participants with incident HPV‐related cancers (anal = 387, cervical = 274 ...
