HPV: A Link to Cervical Cancer

HPV is a common sexually transmitted infection, and most women will not know that they or their partners have it. HPV is most often spread through sexual intercourse. It can also be transmitted via non penetrative sexual activity.5

HPV is a small, double-stranded DNA virus that affects epithelial cells such as skin and mucous membranes. There are more than 150 HPV genotypes, about 30 of which are sexually transmitted. Most HPV strains are harmless; however, a handful of high-risk types cause infections that can develop into cervical cancer.

There are 14 high-risk HPV types that are detected in over 99% of cervical cancers.2,3 Two HPV types, HPV 16 and HPV 18, are associated with 70% of all cervical cancers.3 HPV 16 causes approximately 55% to 60% of cervical cancer cases, and HPV 18 accounts for 10% to 15%.2 Globally, genotypes HPV 16 and HPV 18 are more oncogenic and likely to progress to high grade cervical disease than all other high-risk HPV genotypes combined.6
