2 Lancet Oct 6;2(8406): "Pap" smear and the risk of cervical neoplasia: quantitative estimates from a case-control study.la Vecchia C, Franceschi S, Decarli A, Fasoli M, Gentile A, Tognoni G Compared with no previous screening smear, the RR for invasive cancer was 0.44 (with 95% CI = ) for those who had had one smear and 0.20 (95% CI = ) for those who had had two or more smears. The RR for intervals of more than 5, 3-5, and less than 3 years were 0.36, 0.18, and 0.10 for invasive cancer. RRs were not materially modified by adjustment for the major risk factors for cervical cancer, such as indicators of socioeconomic status and sexual habits. 64% of invasive cervical cancers could be prevented by screening at intervals of more than 5 years, an additional 18% by reducing the interval to 3-5 years

8 Eur J Can, 2016 The % of HPV+ women directly referred to colposcopy varied across programmes (20-57%; average 37%) and so did CIN2+ detection (49e94%; average 77%). Overall, 63% (range 41-75%) of HPV+ were referred to colposcopy either immediately or at HPV repeat. An absolute 10% increase in immediate colposcopy referral resulted in only 4.2% (95% CI: %) increase in overall referral. An absolute 10% increase in cytology s sensitivity resulted in a 1.1% (95% CI: %) increase in overall CIN2+ detection. Repeat HPV testing limits the effect of subjectivity of cytology or different sensitivity of any triage test

9 Tailored screening protocols based on vaccination status could be replaced by one size fits all protocols only when a herd immunity effect has been reached. Vaccinated women should start screening at age 30, instead of 25, with HPV test. >5-yrs intervals for re-screening HPV-neg women are predictable, but research is needed on optimal screening time points. For non-vaccinated women and for women vaccinated in their fifteenth year or later, the current protocol should be kept.

26 HPV and cancer: another intensity Genomic Microenvironment Immunity landscape

27 HPV16 E7 was devoid of variants in precancers/cancers compared to higher levels in the controls Strict conservation of the 98 amino acids of E7, which disrupts Rb function, is critical for HPV16 carcinogenesis, presenting a highly specific target for etiologic and therapeutic research. 2017

28 2015 Decrease in estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) in CxC progression ERα expression shuts off in tumor epithelium, but stromal fibroblasts in microenvironment retain ERα Role of stromal estrogen signaling in CxCa development and may have implications for CxC management and control

29 C2 (IFN-γ dominant) comprises of cervical tumors, highly mutated breast, gastric, ovarian, HNSC, and shows the highest M1/M2 macrophage polarization, a strong CD8 signal and greatest T-cell receptor diversity. C2 also showed a high proliferation rate, which may override an evolving type I immune response C2 tumors show an unfavorable survival despite having a robust anti-tumor immune response 6 Immune sub-types The immune response may Not be enough to control the rapid growth of C2 tumors Another hypothesis is that C2 tumors in are those that have already been remodeled by the lymphocyte infiltrate and have escaped immune recognition

30 Conclusioni Il GISCI ha rappresentato in Italia un esempio unico di lavoro multidisciplinare e indipendente. Si tratta di un modello da seguire anche nel campo della prevenzione e del trattamento dei tumori
