Abstract

A nested case–control study of invasive and cervical cancer was performed within a community-based cohort of 13 595 Taiwanese women assembled in 1991, with a follow-up period of 9 years. Baseline serum or plasma samples were analysed for antibodies against human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6, 16 and 18 and . In total, 114 cases (42 incident cases identified during follow-up and 72 prevalent cases identified at baseline) and 519 matched controls were included in the study. HPV-16 seropositivity was strongly associated with cervical cancer (OR=6.33; 95 % CI 3.45–11.62). Overall, was not associated with cervical cancer, but was associated with cervical cancer in analyses restricted to incident cases of cancer (OR=2.94; 95 % CI 1.17–7.42) or to cases in which serum samples were analysed (OR=3.13; 95 % CI 1.16–8.47). An antagonistic interaction between HPV-6 and -16 was found in a multiplicative model. These results suggest that different HPV types might interfere in cervical carcinogenesis and that is associated with cervical cancer in prospective studies, and support the notion that HPV-16 seropositivity is strongly associated with cervical cancer.
