Primary HPV-based Cervical Cancer Screening Algorithms in Botswana
April 24, 2023 updated by: Rebecca Luckett, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
Performance of Two-stage Cervical Cancer Screening Algorithms Using Primary High-risk Human Papillomavirus Testing in Botswana
Primary high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) testing has become first line screening for cervical cancer in high-income countries.
The feasibility of this approach in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is less clear, as is the role of HPV testing among women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
The proposed study seeks to evaluate the accuracy of cervical cancer screening algorithms using primary HPV testing followed by various forms of visual evaluation, including visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA), colposcopy and automated visual evaluation (AVE) for the detection of high-grade cervical dysplasia, using histology as the gold standard.
We will validate the AmpFire Assay for HPV self-sampling in our setting.
We will determine safe screening intervals in women living with HIV (WLHIV) in an HPV-based cervical cancer screening program and compare triage strategies for positive HPV results at WHO recommended screening intervals for WLHIV.
We also seek to understand in-depth the attitudes, acceptability and preferences regarding cervical cancer screening, HPV testing, and self-sampling, for women in Botswana through interviews of a sub-set of women recruited for the cervical cancer screening study.
Finally, we will analyze the cost of two-stage cervical cancer screening algorithms using high-risk HPV testing in Botswana.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Other: Baseline screening cohort
This group undergoes HPV testing using self-collected swabs.
Triage evaluation occurs in all women who test HPV positive which includes visual inspection with acetic acid, colposcopy and image capture for automated visual evaluation.
The WLHIV in the cohort who test HPV positive at baseline but who have concurrent benign histopathology results will be invited back for re-screening at a 2-year interval, and undergo similar HPV testing and triage procedures.
The WLHIV in the cohort who test HPV negative at baseline will be invited back for re-screening at a 3-year interval and undergo similar HPV testing and triage procedures.
|
Participants will undergo primary hrHPV testing and if positive will be referred for VIA per Botswana and WHO guidelines.
Participants will also undergo colposcopy, image capture for automated visual evaluation and biopsy at the time of VIA.
