Effect of a Multi-Ingredient Coriolus-versicolor-Based Vaginal Gel in Women with HPV-Dependent Cervical Lesions: The Papilobs Real-Life Prospective Study.

ABSTRACT: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is responsible for virtually all cervical cancers in women. HPV infection and persistency may lead to different-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions that can result in high-grade lesions and cancer. The objective was to prospectively evaluate the results of using a Coriolus-versicolor-based vaginal gel (Papilocare^®) on HPV-dependent low-grade cervical lesion repair in a real-life scenario. HPV-positive women ≥ 25 years with ASCUS/LSIL cervical cytology results and concordant colposcopy images were included, receiving the vaginal gel one cannula/day for 21 days (first month) + one cannula/alternate days (five months). A 6-month second treatment cycle was prescribed when needed. Repair of the cervical low-grade lesions through cytology and colposcopy, HPV clearance, and level of satisfaction, and tolerability were evaluated. In total, 192 and 201 patients accounted for the total and safety analyses, respectively, and 77.1% repaired cervical lesions at 6 or 12 months (76.0% for high-risk HPV). Additionally, 71.6% achieved HPV clearance throughout the study's duration (70.6% for high-risk HPV). Satisfaction level was rated 7.9 and 7.5 out of 10 at 6 and 12 months, respectively. Only three mild-moderate product-related adverse events were reported, and all of them were resolved by the end of the study. In our study, we observed higher regression rates of low-grade cervical lesions in women treated with Papilocare^® vaginal gel than spontaneous regression rates reported in the literature.

Project description:ObjectiveCharacterise the vaginal metabolome of cervical HPV-infected and uninfected women.DesignCross-sectional.SettingThe Center for Health Behavior Research at the University of Maryland School of Public Health.SampleThirty-nine participants, 13 categorised as HPV-negative and 26 as HPV-positive (any genotype; HPV+ ), 14 of whom were positive with at least one high-risk HPV strain (hrHPV).MethodSelf-collected mid-vaginal swabs were profiled for bacterial composition by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, metabolites by both gas and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry, and 37 types of HPV DNA.Main outcome measuresMetabolite abundances.ResultsVaginal microbiota clustered into Community State Type (CST) I (Lactobacillus crispatus-dominated), CST III (Lactobacillus iners-dominated), and CST IV (low-Lactobacillus, 'molecular-BV'). HPV+ women had higher biogenic amine and phospholipid concentrations compared with HPV- women after adjustment for CST and cigarette smoking. Metabolomic profiles of HPV+ and HPV- women differed in strata of CST. In CST III, there were higher concentrations of biogenic amines and glycogen-related metabolites in HPV+ women than in HPV- women. In CST IV, there were lower concentrations of glutathione, glycogen, and phospholipid-related metabolites in HPV+ participants than in HPV- participants. Across all CSTs, women with hrHPV strains had lower concentrations of amino acids, lipids, and peptides compared with women who had only low-risk HPV (lrHPV).ConclusionsThe vaginal metabolome of HPV+ women differed from HPV- women in terms of several metabolites, including biogenic amines, glutathione, and lipid-related metabolites. If the temporal relation between increased levels of reduced glutathione and oxidised glutathione and HPV incidence/persistence is confirmed in future studies, anti-oxidant therapies may be considered as a non-surgical HPV control intervention.Tweetable abstractMetabolomics study: Vaginal microenvironment of HPV+ women may be informative for non-surgical interventions.
