The clinical value
of extended genotyping

"Extended genotyping" refers to those high-risk HPV types beyond types 16 and 18 that may impact patients and lead to high cervical disease risk.1

Extended genotyping enables risk stratification1 and persistence monitoring2,3 to help prevent more cases of cervical cancer.

As the vaccinated population increases, the prevalence of high-risk HPV types beyond 16 and 18 may change.

THE BD ONCLARITY™ HPV ASSAY PROVIDES VISIBILITY INTO HIGH-RISK GENOTYPES
BEYOND HPV 16 AND 18


The BD Onclarity™ HPV Assay enables risk stratification

HPV genotypic information stratifies the baseline risk of precancer/cancer in women

The 14 hrHPV genotypes naturally fall into 3 distinct risk groups1

Baseline risk of ≥CIN3 by HPV type in women ≥25 years with NILM cytology1

Individual HPV genotyping enables healthcare professionals to more precisely identify the risk for developing cervical cancer in the future

Individual identification of HPV 31 and HPV 45 matters

By individually identifying HPV 31, BD Onclarity™ HPV Assay provides highly valuable information to determine the risk for ≥CIN3 disease 5

Assays that combine different genotypes into a single pool (12-other HR) artificially mask the true underlying risk of ≥CIN3 disease especially due to HPV 31*5
HPV 31 poses the next highest risk for ≥CIN3 disease after HPV 16, and is higher than HPV 181,5

*The pooled 12-other risk is an average of its constituent types.

With the BD Onclarity™ HPV Assay, the identification of HPV 45 along with HPV 16 and 18 provides clinically relevant information to determine the risk of adenocarcinoma6,7

Extended genotyping helps monitor HPV genotype shifts

As the vaccinated population increases, the BD Onclarity™ HVP Assay may help monitor the changes in prevalence of high-risk HPV types.

Prevalence of high-risk HPV genotypes by age groups and vaccine status*8

HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 58
All ages OR = 0.4 (95% CI: 0.4, 0.5);
p < 0.001
Other 9 HPV
All ages OR = 1.2 (95% CI: 1.0, 1.3);
p = 0.009

The prevalence of vaccine-targeted genotypes (HPV 16 and 18) were significantly lower
in vaccinated women compared to unvaccinated women.*8

A lower prevalence was also observed with HPV 31 and HPV 33, 58 due to a probable vaccine
cross-protection.*8

The prevalence of the other 9 high-risk HPV genotypes (pooled results) were increased in vaccinated women.*8

Adapted from Wright TC et al. Gynecol Oncol. 2019;153(2):259-265.
*The majority of known vaccinated women (89.2%) received the 4vHPV vaccine, which targets HPV genotypes 6, 11, 16, and 18.
