Objective.
We investigate the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues compared to oesophageal tissue from healthy controls, in an Australian cohort.
Methods.
We conducted a hospital-based case-control study of 99 patients with OSCC and 100 healthy controls to examine the presence of HPV DNA.
Paraffin tissues were tested using the PapType high-risk HPV detection and genotyping kit and with INNO-LiPA HPV Genotyping Extra.
The biopsy samples were tested for HPV using a PCR-ELISA method based on the L1 consensus primer set PGMY09-PGMY11.
Results.
HPV DNA of the oncogenic genotype 16 was detected in 1/99 case specimens, a rate of 1010 per 100,000 (95% CI: 30–5500).
All control specimens were negative for HPV.
Significantly higher rates of smoking, other aerodigestive cancers, and mortality were seen among cases than controls.
A pooled analysis of this study and the only other Australian case-control study found that 9/321 cases and 0/155 controls were positive for HPV.
The pooled odds ratio for HPV being a risk factor for OSCC was 9.35 (95% CI: 0.47–190.33).
Conclusion.
Our results suggest that in this multifactorial cancer HPV may be an additional risk factor; although a larger, better powered study is needed.
