Antibodies against the Human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) E6 oncoprotein appear years prior to clinical diagnosis of anal and oropharyngeal cancer, but whether they develop around the time of HPV infection is unclear. Serum samples from 173 cancer-free men from the Human Papillomavirus Infection in Men (HIM) Study were tested for HPV antibodies and DNA. HPV16 E6 seropositivity was low among men with oral HPV16-infection (1/28; 3.6%, 95%CI=0.0–18.4%), anal HPV16-infection (1/61; 1.6%, 95%CI=0.0–8.8%), and 24-month persistent genital HPV16-infection (1/84; 1.2%, 0.0–6.5%). This suggests E6 seroconversion may not occur around the time of oral, anal, or genital HPV16 acquisition. Keywords: HPV, HPV16 E6 seropositivity, Oropharyngeal cancer, Anal cancer, Penile cancer |
