The cobas KNOW THE RISK In cervical cancer screening The devil is in the details With the cobas, you know who is at highest risk and who can be spared from unnecessary treatment.

Cytology Important for knowing cervical cancer risk Pap cytology has reduced cervical cancer mortality through regular screening programs. 1 Although Pap cytology has been a cornerstone of detecting disease and reducing mortality, cervical cancer remains a serious public health matter. 2 Pap cytology does not uncover all disease. 3,4 Normal cytology does not always mean cancer free Invasive cervical cancer occurs in women with normal Pap cytology 3,4 Percentage of invasive cervical cancer that occurred in women with normal Paps 32 % 24 % Kaiser Permanente healthcare plans, N = 833 Swedish healthcare system, N = 1230

The risks of false Pap results False negatives may hide the presence of CIN. 5 False positives may create anxiety and confusion. 5 Disease progression during the testing interval 5 Unnecessary follow-up diagnostic procedures 5 Pap is important, but more details are needed to further define patient risk CIN = cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. 1.

High risk HPV testing For additional predictive power Adding an HPV test to Pap cytology helps identify women at high risk of cervical cancer. 1-3 Almost all cervical cancer is attributable to HPV, so knowing a woman s HPV status is important to ascertaining her risk of cervical cancer and determining clinical management. 4,5 For example, a 5-year study of 330,000 women found that it was safe to extend the screening interval to 3 years for women who were NILM HPV. 3 High-risk HPV testing reveals even more about patient risk By providing results on only the most oncogenic forms of HPV, pooled hrhpv tests help further illuminate patient risk and refine clinical decision making. Over 99% of cervical cancer is attributable to hrhpv genotypes 6,7 Guidelines Organizations worldwide recommend using both cytology and HPV tests to determine patient risk of cervical cancer. 8-12 ASCCP, ASCP and ACS recommend cytology and HPV co-testing as a preferred option for women 30-65 years of age, over cytology alone. 10 Serial cytology also remains an option for these women.

The limits of pooled hrhpv testing Within the hrhpv genotypes, some types incur higher risks of precancer than others. 13 Therefore, when determining the course of clinical management for women who are NILM hrhpv+, it is important to have a test that provides individual results on the highest-risk HPV genotypes. HPV testing is an advance, but more details are needed to further define patient risk ACOG = American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists; ACS = American Cancer Society; HPV = human papillomavirus; hrhpv = high-risk human papillomavirus; NILM = negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy. 1.

HPV 16 and HPV 18 Details that further define risk Women with HPV 16 and HPV 18 genotypes are at highest risk of cervical cancer. 1 Focus on the few at highest risk HPV 16 and HPV 18 genotypes are responsible for approximately two-thirds of cervical cancer. 1 In fact, women who are HPV 16+ and/or HPV 18+ are at increased risk of CIN even if they have normal baseline and repeat cytologies. 2 HPV 18 causes 10% to 12% of cervical cancer 1 HPV 18 was found in 57% of cases of adenocarcinoma of the cervix. 3 Atypical glandular cells, the precursors to adenocarcinoma of the cervix, are difficult to detect with Pap. HPV 16 causes 50% to 60% of cervical cancer 1 Guidelines For women who are 30 years of age or older with NILM cytology and hrhpv+, the ASCCP ACS and ASCP all recommend either repeat co-testing or genotyping for HPV16 or HPV16/18. The ASCCP supports immediate colposcopy for women who are HPV16 positive or HPV16/18 positive. 4 ACS = American Cancer Society; ASCCP = American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology; ASCP = American Society for Clinical Pathology; CIN = cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; CIN3 = grade 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; HPV = human papillomavirus; hrhpv = high-risk human papillomavirus; NILM = negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy. 1.

In an independent study of 20,000 women with normal cytology, CIN3 occurred most often in HPV 16+ or HPV 18+ women HPV 16+ or HPV 18+ women were more likely to have CIN3 over a 10-year period than women who were positive for other pooled hrhpv genotypes. 5 For women who were HPV 16+ at baseline, the incidence rose sharply during the first year of the study. 5 For HPV 18+ women, the incidence of CIN3 increased dramatically from around 2 years after baseline. 5 10-year cumulative incidence rate of CIN3 by hrhpv status 5 20 Cumulative incidence rate, % (confidence interval) 15 10 5 0 4.5 15 27 39 51 63 75 87 99 111 119.5 Follow-up time (months) HPV 16+ 17.2% (11.5, 22.9) HPV 18+ 13.6% (3.6, 23.7) Other pooled hrhpv+ 3.0% (1.9, 4.2) hrhpv 0.8% (0.6, 1.1) The pooled hrhpv genotypes were as follows: HPV 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, and 68.

The ATHENA trial evaluated the performance of the cobas in multiple clinical situations, including ASC-US triage and co-testing. 1 ASC-US = atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance; ATHENA = Addressing THE Need for Advanced HPV Diagnostics; CIN2 = grade 2 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; HPV = human papillomavirus; hrhpv = high-risk human papillomavirus; NILM = negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy. 1. cobas [package insert, US]: Branchburg, NJ: Roche Molecular Systems, Inc; 2011.

ATHENA: powered to change the standard of testing 1 ATHENA is a multicenter, prospective trial enrolling over 47,000 women 21 years of age undergoing routine cervical cancer screening. STUDY VISIT 1: Cytology and HPV testing were performed on all women. STUDY VISIT 2: All women with ASC-US cytology or hrhpv+ test results and a random subset of women 25 years of age who were NILM hrhpv underwent colposcopy and biopsy. 3-YEAR LONGITUDINAL FOLLOW-UP: Women without a histological diagnosis of CIN2 have annual follow-up visits for the next 3 years, at which those with abnormal cytology undergo colposcopy and biopsy; those with a histologic diagnosis of CIN2 exit the study. Women with a histological diagnosis of CIN2 met the endpoint and exited the study. Exit colposcopy was offered to all women. Because the devil is in the details, order the evidence-based cobas The cobas KNOW THE RISK

The cobas Know which women with ASC-US are at highest risk The cobas was clinically validated against the current standard of testing in ASC-US triage and improved on it by providing individual results for HPV 16 and HPV 18. The ATHENA trial: women with ASC-US analysis Objectives To clinically validate the performance of the cobas for screening women with ASC-US cytology to determine the need for colposcopy 1 To compare risks of CIN2 between women with a positive and those with a negative cobas result 1 Results The cobas demonstrated performance comparable to the current standard of pooled hrhpv testing (14 genotypes) for the detection of CIN2 and CIN3. 1 4% of women in ATHENA had ASC-US cytology; 3% of women had >ASC-US cytology. 1,2 Women who were ASC-US HPV 16+ were more than twice as likely to have CIN2 than ASC-US women who were hrhpv+. 3 1. cobas [package insert, US].

The cobas identifies women with ASC-US at highest risk of cancer The absolute risk of CIN2 was 31.5% among women who were HPV 16+. 3 Pooled hrhpv women were at very low risk of CIN2. 3 Absolute risk of CIN2 stratified by hrhpv status in the ATHENA ASC-US population 1 40 30 Stratified cobas positive result 31.5 Absolute risk (%) 20 10 0 Cytology result 5.1 ASC-US 14 pooled cobas result 14.0 0.8 hrhpv hrhpv+ 8.6 12 other hrhpv+ 4.3 HPV 16+ HPV 18+ Guidelines The ASCCP supports that women with ASC-US who are hrhpv+ be referred for colposcopy. 4 The cobas helps you follow the guidelines by providing pooled hrhpv results. The cobas also provides individual HPV 16 and HPV 18 results to help you identify those women at highest risk who may need more intensive postcolposcopic follow-up. Because the devil is in the details, order the cobas to know the risk in women with ASC-US The cobas KNOW THE RISK

The cobas Uncover disease that is missed by cytology The cobas provides more information about cancer risk in women who are NILM than pooled hrhpv testing does. The ATHENA trial: analysis of women with normal cytology Objective To compare the risk of CIN2 among women who are NILM and 30 years of age who are HPV 16+ and/or HPV 18+ with women who are positive for the 12 other pooled hrhpv genotypes with the cobas 1 * Results Approximately 1 in 7 women who were NILM HPV 16+ had high-grade cervical disease that was missed by cytology. 2 Guidelines For women who are 30 years of age or older with NILM cytology and hrhpv+, the ASCCP, ASCP and ACS support genotyping for HPV 16 or HPV 16/18. These societies support immediate colposcopy for women who are HPV 16 positive or 18 positive. 4 The cobas enables adherence to the guidelines by identifying those women at highest risk who were not identified by cytology. * Other objectives were to compare the risk of CIN2 in women who had a positive cobas with the risk in women who had a negative cobas, and to compare the risk of CIN2 in women who were HPV 16+ or HPV 18+ with the risk in women who had a negative cobas. 1 Serial cytology remains an option for these women. 1. cobas [package insert, US].

Estimated absolute risk (%) 20 15 10 5 0 Absolute risk of CIN2 stratified by hrhpv status in the ATHENA NILM population 1 * Cytology result 1.2 NILM 14 pooled cobas 0.8 hrhpv 6.1 4.6 hrhpv+ 12 hrhpv+ Stratified cobas positive result 13.6 7.0 HPV 16+ HPV 18+ Approximately 1 in 10 women who were NILM HPV 16+ and/or HPV 18+ had high-grade cervical disease that was missed by cytology. 1 The risk of CIN2 in women 30 years of age who were NILM HPV 16+ and/or HPV 18+ was comparable to the risk in women 21 years of age with ASC-US who were hrhpv+. 1 ATHENA is a multicenter, prospective study evaluating the performance of the cobas in multiple clinical situations, including ASC-US triage and co-testing. ATHENA is the first screening trial for registration that evaluated simultaneous real-time genotyping of 12 pooled hrhpv genotypes plus HPV 16 and HPV 18 individually. *Absolute risk measurements are estimates based on raw study data. Guidelines For women who are 30 years of age or older with NILM cytology and hrhpv+, the ASCCP, ASCP and ACS support genotyping for HPV 16 or HPV 16/18. These societies support immediate colposcopy for women who are HPV 16 positive or 18 positive. 2 The cobas enables adherence to the guidelines by identifying those women at highest risk who were not identified by cytology. Serial cytology remains an option for these women.

What is this patient s risk of CIN2? What is the best course of management? ASC-US = atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance; CIN2 = grade 2 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; G0 = never pregnant; HPV = human papillomavirus; hrhpv = high-risk human papillomavirus.

The details about ASC-US risk The highest risk of cervical cancer is in women with ASC-US who are HPV 16+ and/or HPV 18+.

ATHENA is the first screening trial for registration that evaluated simultaneous real-time genotyping of 12 pooled hrhpv genotypes plus HPV 16 and HPV 18 individually. HPV 16+ women had the highest risk of having CIN2. 1 Women who were ASC-US HPV 16+ were more than twice as likely to have CIN2 than women with ASC-US who were hrhpv+. 1 Guidelines The ASCCP supports that women with ASC-US who are hrhpv+ be referred for colposcopy. 2 The cobas helps you follow the guidelines by providing pooled hrhpv results. The cobas also provides individual HPV 16 and HPV 18 results to help you identify those women at highest risk who may need more intensive postcolposcopic follow-up.
