Quadrivalent vaccine against human papillomavirus to prevent high-grade cervical lesions

TL;DR: In young women who had not been previously infected with HPV-16 or HPV-18, those in the vaccine group had a significantly lower occurrence of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia related to HPV- 16 or HPV -18 than did those inThe placebo group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy of HPV-based screening for prevention of invasive cervical cancer: follow-up of four European randomised controlled trials

TL;DR: Data of large-scale randomised trials support initiation of HPV-based screening from age 30 years and extension of screening intervals to at least 5 years, and provide 60-70% greater protection against invasive cervical carcinomas compared with cytology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Papillomavirus and Papanicolaou Tests to Screen for Cervical Cancer

TL;DR: The addition of an HPV test to the Pap test to screen women in their mid-30s for cervical cancer reduces the incidence of grade 2 or 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or cancer detected by subsequent screening examinations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of Human Papillomavirus-Based and Other Novel Options for Cervical Cancer Screening in Developed and Developing Countries

TL;DR: The greater sensitivity of HPV DNA testing compared to cytology argues strongly for using HPVDNA testing as the primary screening test in newly implemented programmes, except where resources are extremely limited and only programmes based on visual inspection are affordable.
