HPV Recap

Small virus – 100 types
Low-risk e.g. 6, 11
 High-risk e.g. 16, 18

Associated with various disease from skin
warts to cervical cancer
 Transmission via skin-to-skin/sexual
 Most common STI

How does HPV cause cancer?
HPV

Persistent HR HPV infection
Normal
epithelium
HPV clearance
No lesion
> 80%
CIN
10-20+ years
Invasive
carcinoma
HPV clearance & regression dependent on age,
degree of CIN lesion & immune status

High Risk HPV and cervical cancer
- Philippines, Costa Rica, Bangkok

Hepatitis B virus and liver cancer
- Taiwan, Greece

Hepatitis C virus and liver cancer
- Italy, Spain

Worldwide stats for cervical cancer

Worldwide 493,000 new cases per year



1 in 10 female cancers
Commonest cancer in Sub-Saharan Africa
and parts of South America
Approximately 274,000 deaths per year


Mortality rates vary 17 fold
2.7 million years of life lost in women aged 25-64

HPV Immunisation

Programme in Wales

From Sept 2008
 routine
12-13yr olds
 catch-up for 18yr olds

From Sept 2009
 routine
12-13yr olds
 accelerated catch-up for 15-18yr olds
Wales Uptake

In 2008/09 school year 8
1st dose – 88.9%
 2nd dose – 88.1%
 3rd dose – 85.2%

Schools vs GPs
Problems?

Parental rejection
Prevents a STI
 Girls are too young?
 Vaccine very new


Patient rejection
Three injections!
 Arm hurts
 Am I bothered?!?

Problems?

Actually uptake results and recent study
show parents are agreeable

One NHS trust piloting incentives for the
catch-up group
Media problems?

Daily Mail: First picture of girl, 14, who
died after being injected with cervical
cancer jab from 'rogue batch‘

Daily Mail: How safe is the cervical cancer
jab? Five teenagers reveal their alarming
stories
Media Problems?

Daily Telegraph: Cervical cancer vaccine
will cut cases by two thirds, experts
calculate

Guardian: Cancer tests go up after Goody
diagnosis
Drug safety

MHRA 8th Apr 2010
3.5 million doses across UK
 Majority are recognised S/E or due to the
injection process
 Isolated medical conditions appear to be
coincidental

Drug Safety
Post hoc study of phase III trials reveal no
statistically significant increase in rate of
miscarriage
 However, it cannot be ruled out and
caution is advised

Missed opportunity?
CervarixTM vs Gardasil®
 Genital warts most common STI in UK
 Costs NHS approx £23m/yr
 According to HPA the DoH are saving
£18.6 m a year by using Cervarix
 GSK report that Cervarix induces
significantly higher antibody titres - ?longer
duration of protection

Missed opportunity?

What about the boys?
Herd immunity
 Greater infection risk due to promiscuity
 At risk of penile, anal and oropharyngeal
cancers

Cervical Screening

Still required?

YES – and must be emphasised to girls
Mothers may be motivated to attend
 Concern also that unvaccinated will
become the unscreened
 Different in the future?

Age of initial screening
 HPV testing to triage

Cervical cancers avoidable in different
countries

Coverage is vital
Coverage for vaccination & screening is
crucial for maximising cervical cancer
prevention
 HPV vaccination particularly important for
women unlikely to be screened



eg rural populations
Systematic, organised screening required

Quality and sustainability important
Summary
Best practice for vaccine programme is
still being determined
 Schools doing very well for 12-13yr olds
 Catch-up been more challenging
 Implications on future screening
 Potential for developing countries
