About this study

Official title: Influence of Hpv Infections on Therapeutical Outcome of Patients Suffering From Vulvar Cancer and Ist Preinvasive Lesions

HPV infections may be responsible for different types of cancer in females. Primary Goal of the study was to identify the prevalence of an hpv affiliation in retrospective-prospective analysed cohort of patients who suffer from vulvar cancer and their preinvasive lesions.

Read the detailed description

HPV infections may be responsible for different types of cancer in females. Primary Goal of the study was to identify the prevalence of an hpv affiliation in retrospective-prospective analysed cohort of patients who suffer from vulvar cancer and their preinvasive lesions.

After having retrospectively identified patients with vulvar cancer incl. their preinvasive lesions in the clinical registry the hpv status of the samples is prospectively analyzed using a new multiplex pcr Array. Two Groups are build: patients with hpv associated vulvar cancer and patients with non-hpv associated vulvar cancer.

Then, the rate of patients who respond to radiotherapy within the Groups is analyzed by building Kaplan meier plots according to the patients survival and recurrence rate.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • polymerase chain reactionDiagnostic test

    Also called EUROARRAY

    PCR is performed with all patients. The result (hpv positive or negative) will define the patiens Group Affiliation.
