Mp15-06 reassessment of Risk and Vaccine Efficacy Through Genotyping Analysis of Genital Warts: Are Genital Warts Truly Benign?

Abstract

relationship between the of HPV and cancer was the extension of Fisher's exact test and the alpha significance level equal to 5% was applied.RESULTS: 157 patients, 95 (60.5%) with PCa, 55 (35.0%) without cancer, and 7 (4.5%) as inconclusive (ASAP). The presence of HPV was 7/95 [(7.4%) in patients with cancer, and 2/55 [(3.6%) in those without evidence of cancer or inconclusive diagnosis ASAP. The inferential results revealed that the presence of HPV was not related to the diagnosis of cancer when the ASAP diagnosis was considered in the analysis (p[0.663) and, also when the ASAP diagnosis was not included (p[0.487).CONCLUSIONS: There was no L1 gene expression and significant levels of HPV L1 in prostate tissue. These findings suggest no oncogenic activity of HPV in PCa.
