The performance and acceptability of first-void urine as specimen for the detection of HPV DNA in a Belgian referral population was evaluated using an optimized sample collection and processing protocol. One hundred ten first-void urine and cervical samples were collected from 25- to 64-year-old women who were referred for colposcopy (January-November 2016). Paired samples were analyzed by the Riatol qPCR HPV genotyping assay. Acceptability data were gathered through questionnaires (NCT02714127). A higher high-risk HPV DNA prevalence was observed in first-void urine (n = 76/110) compared to cervical samples (n = 73/110), with HPV31 and HPV16/31 being most prevalent correspondingly. For both any and high-risk HPV DNA, good agreement was observed between paired samples (Cohen's Kappa of 0.660 (95% CI: 0.486-0.833) and 0.688 (95% CI: 0.542-0.835), respectively). In addition, significant positive correlations in HPV copies (per microliter of DNA extract) between paired samples were observed for HPV16 (r = 0.670; FDR (false discovery rate)-adjusted p = 0.006), HPV18 (r = 0.893; FDR-adjusted p = 0.031), HPV31 (r = 0.527; FDR-adjusted p = 0.031), HPV53 (r = 0.691; FDR-adjusted p = 0.017), and HPV68 (r = 0.569; FDR-adjusted p = 0.031). First-void urine sampling using a first-void urine collection device was preferred over a clinician-collected cervical sample. And mostly, first-void urine sampling at home was favored over collection at the clinic or the general practitioner's office. First-void urine sampling is a highly preferred, non-invasive method that ensures good agreement in HPV DNA (copies) with reference cervical samples. It is particularly interesting as a screening technique to reach non-participants, and its clinical performance should be further evaluated.
采用优化的样本采集和处理方案,评估了首段尿样作为检测 HPV DNA 的标本在比利时转诊人群中的性能和可接受性。2016 年 1 月至 11 月,采集了 25 至 64 岁转诊行阴道镜检查的女性的 110 份首段尿和宫颈样本。使用 Riatol qPCR HPV 基因分型检测分析配对样本。通过问卷(NCT02714127)收集可接受性数据。与宫颈样本(n=110)相比,首段尿(n=76)中观察到较高的高危 HPV DNA 流行率,相应的 HPV31 和 HPV16/31 最为常见。对于任何高危 HPV DNA,配对样本之间均观察到良好的一致性(Cohen's Kappa 分别为 0.660(95%CI:0.486-0.833)和 0.688(95%CI:0.542-0.835))。此外,在 HPV 拷贝数(每微升 DNA 提取液)方面,配对样本之间 HPV16(r=0.670;FDR(假发现率)校正 p=0.006)、HPV18(r=0.893;FDR 校正 p=0.031)、HPV31(r=0.527;FDR 校正 p=0.031)、HPV53(r=0.691;FDR 校正 p=0.017)和 HPV68(r=0.569;FDR 校正 p=0.031)呈显著正相关。与临床医生采集的宫颈样本相比,使用首段尿采集装置采集首段尿样本更受青睐。而且,大多倾向于在家中采集首段尿样本,而不是在诊所或全科医生办公室采集。首段尿采样是一种高度可接受的非侵入性方法,可确保与参考宫颈样本的 HPV DNA(拷贝数)良好一致。作为一种筛选技术,它特别适用于未能参与的人群,其临床性能应进一步评估。
