Prevalence of human
papillomavirus positive
oropharyngeal cancer in New
ZealandLucas-Roxburgh R, Benschop J, Lockett B, Williams R, Van den

HPV in HNSCC
• HNSCC include cancers of oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx, hypopharynx
• In 2005 IARC concluded HPV 16 had evidence for carcinogenicity in oral cavity and oropharynx
• Dramatic increase seen in developed countries in last few decades
HPV + vs HPV - HNSCC
HPV positive
• Younger (40-59)• Non-smoker• Non / light drinker• Consistent associations with
sexual behaviours & oral sex• Site: Oropharynx, tonsils, base
of tongue• 5 year survival: improved
HPV negative
• Older (over 60)• Smoker• Heavy drinker• Sexual behaviours show no
association• Site: Oral cavity and larynx
• 5 year survival: poor
HPV positive OPC cases

The research project
To determine the prevalence of and genotypes associated with HPV positive oropharyngeal cancer in New Zealand.
Methods – case identification
• 621 cases identified through cancer registry data
• Consent obtained from any patient still living
– 303 consents sent, 157 returned
– 52% response rate
• 388 cases requested from laboratories
Methods – Lab tests
– p16 IHC
– Beta-globin PCR (DNA quality)
– Real time PCR + melt analysis for HPV type
16.
– GP5+/6+ PCR (presence of HPV) + melt
analysis

Remaining 6.4% (17/267) either no tumour present or insufficient material.
Results - beta-globin
• DNA extracted from 224 samples.
• 4.0% (9/224) excluded due to a lack of
amplifiable DNA.
Melt curve of beta globin qPCR. Positive samples shown with Tm of 81.0 °C (±1.0 °C).
Results - HPV 16 qPCR
• Assay capable of detecting 26 copies of
the HPV 16 E6 gene target sequence.
• HPV 16 detected
in 74.4% (160/215)
of cases.Melt curve of HPV 16 qPCR. Positive samples shown with
Tm of 77.6 °C (±1.0 °C).
Results - GP5+/6+ qPCR
• 17 cases p16 positive/focally positive and HPV 16 negative.
• 82.4% (14/17) negative and 17.6% (3/17) positive.
• HrHPV confirmed by sequencing in two cases, one case each of HPV 33 and 35. Melt curve of GP5+/6+ qPCR. Positive samples
shown with Tm in the range of 76.0 – 81.0 °C
Results
• Positive = positive by p16, and HPV 16
qPCR / sequencing.
• Overall prevalence of HPV positive OPC:
77.9% (95% CI: 71.1 – 83.5%).
• HPV 16 accounted for 98.5% (132/134).

Conclusions
• Increase in HPV positive cases, from
61.9% in 1996-98 to 87.5% in 2010-12.
• In NZ the number of HPV positive OPC
cases will soon equal the number of
cervical cancer cases.
Vaccination and OPC
• Decreases in CIN, and genital warts seen
since Gardasil® introduction.
• Vaccine will likely prevent OPC
