Details on genotyping study used to estimate HPV prevalence for the cancers and related studies from Massachusetts

Paper (Year) Study Type and Number of Cases Geographic Area Years Incident Cases Collected Prevalence HPV + Cases Findings/Use/Limitations
Cervical Oropharyngeal
Genotyping Data Nationally

Sarayia et al (2015) [1] Cross-sectional study of select US cancer registries, 777 cervical cases, 588 oropharyngeal cases Los Angeles, Hawaii, Iowa, Kentucky, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan 1993–2005
1 registry 1993–1999
1 registry 2000–2004
1 registry 1994–2004
4 registries 2004–2005
90.6% 70.1% Used for HPV + prevalence in our estimates

Steinau et al (2014) [appendix source 2] Cross-sectional study of select US cancer registries, 557 oropharyngeal cases Los Angeles, Hawaii, Iowa, Kentucky, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan 1995–2005
1 registry 1995–1999
1 registry 2000–2004
1 registry 1994–2004
4 registries 2004–2005
NA 72.4% High-risk HPV prevalence by registry:
 Los Angeles = 17 cases (85.0%)
 Hawaii = 33 cases (84.6%)
 Iowa = 4 cases (30.7%)
 Kentucky = 74 cases (63.8%)
 Florida = 101 cases (72.1%)
 Louisiana = 75 cases (78.9%)
 Michigan = 92 cases (68.6%)

Genotyping Data in Massachusetts

Wright et al (2013) [appendix source 3] Chart review, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, 80 cervical cases Boston for treatment 2005–2011 96.3% NA To compare MA prevalence to national prevalence

Addison et al (2017) [19] Case series from Massachusetts General Hospital, 235 oropharynx cases Boston for treatment 2002–2012 NA 64.7% To compare MA prevalence to national prevalence
Eligible patients had to be undergoing radiation

Lorch et al (2015) [20] Chart review, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, 500 oropharyngeal cases Boston for treatment 2001–2011 NA 43% HPV + 44% unknown status To compare MA prevalence to national prevalence
Eligible patients had to be stage III or IV
Paper (Year) Study Type and Number of Cases Geographic Area Years Incident Cases Collected Prevalence HPV + Cases Findings/Use/Limitations
Cervical Oropharyngeal
Genotyping Data in Massachusetts

Nelson et al (2017) [21] Population-based greater Boston area, 486 pharyngeal cases Greater Boston area 1999–2003 and 2006–2011 NA 60.7% To compare MA prevalence to national prevalence

Nichols et al (2010) [22] Case series from Partners Healthcare System, 68 oropharynx cases Massachusetts 1996–2006 NA 78% HPV 16 To compare MA prevalence to national prevalence
Eligible patients had to be undergoing chemoradiation

Ringstrom et al (2002) [23] Case series from Dana-Farber, 29 oropharynx cases Boston for treatment 1994–1998 NA 52% HPV 16 oropharynx
64% HPV 16 tonsil
To compare MA prevalence to national prevalence
