Background: The SPF10 LiPA-25 system for human papillomavirus (HPV) detection with high analytical performance is widely used in HPV vaccine clinical trials. To develop and evaluate more valent HPV vaccines, other comparable methods with simpler operations are needed. Methods: The performance of the LiPA-25 against that of other 7 assays, including 4 systems based on reverse hybridization (Bohui-24, Yaneng-23, Tellgen-27, and Hybribio-16) and 3 real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays (Hybribio-23, Bioperfectus-21, and Sansure-26), was evaluated in selected 1726 cervical swab and 56 biopsy samples. A total of 15 HPV genotypes (HPV 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, and 66) were considered for comparison for each HPV type. Results: Among the swab samples, compared to LiPA-25, compatible genotypes were observed in 94.1% of samples for Hybribio-23, 92.8% for Yaneng-23, 92.6% for Bioperfectus-21, 92.4% for Hybribio-16, 91.3% for Sansure-26, 89.7% for Bohui-24, and 88.0% for Tellgen-27. The highest overall agreement of the 15 HPV genotypes combined was noted for Hybribio-23 (κ = 0.879, McNemar's test: P = 0.136), followed closely by Hybribio-16 (κ = 0.877, P< 0.001), Yaneng-23 (κ = 0.871, P < 0.001), Bioperfectus-21 (κ = 0.848, P < 0.001), Bohui-24 (κ = 0.847, P < 0.001), Tellgen-27 (κ = 0.831, P < 0.001), and Sansure-26 (κ = 0.826, P < 0.001). Additionally, these systems were also highly consistent with LiPA-25 for biopsy specimens (all, κ > 0.897). Conclusions: The levels of agreement for the detection of 15 HPV types between other 7 assays and LiPA-25 were all good, and Hybribio-23 was most comparable to LiPA-25. The testing operation of HPV genotyping should also be considered for vaccine and epidemiological studies. |
