AbstractObjective: To investigate the triaging efficacy of the human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+) screening in HPV 16/18-positive patients in a tertiary hospital in China. Methods: We collected 476 cervical cell samples from women who tested positive for HPV 16/18 in the gynecological clinic of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between September 2018 and September 2022 and analyzed them by the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay before colposcopy and biopsy. The study assessed the triaging efficacy of the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay in HPV 16/18-positive patients by analyzing its performance against the gold standard of histologically confirmed CIN2+. Results: The positive rate of the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay was 41.0% (114/278) in the negative for intraepithelial lesions and malignancy/CIN1 group and 80.3% (159/198) in the CIN2+ group. For triage of women with a positive HPV 16/18 test for CIN2+ detection, the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay had a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of 80.3%, 59.4%, 58.5%, and 80.9%, respectively. Furthermore, longitudinal follow-up of five patients showed a good correlation between the expression of the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein and cervical lesion grades. Conclusions: As a triage method for HPV 16/18-positive patients, the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay improves the specificity, reduces the colposcopy referral rate, and has the potential for long-term monitoring of high-grade CIN.
