The test utilizes amplification of target DNA by the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and nucleic acid hybridization for the detection of 14 high-risk (HR) HPV types in a single analysis. The test specifically identifies HPV16 and HPV18 while concurrently detecting the other high risk types (31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68) at clinically relevant infection levels. Specimens are limited to cervical cells collected in Roche Cell Collection Medium (Roche Molecular Systems, Inc.), PreservCyt® Solution (Hologic Corp.) and SurePath™ Preservative Fluid (BD Diagnostics-TriPath).Indications for use of cobas® HPV are:cobas® HPV is indicated for use in screening patients with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) cervical cytology results to determine the need for referral to colposcopy.cobas® HPV is indicated for use in screening patients with ASC-US cervical cytology results to assess the presence or absence of HR HPV genotypes 16 and 18.cobas® HPV is indicated for use adjunctively with cervical cytology to assess the presence or absence of HR HPV types.cobas® HPV is indicated for use adjunctively with cervical cytology to assess the presence or absence of HPV genotypes 16 and 18.cobas® HPV is indicated for use as a first-line primary screening test to identify women at increased risk for the development of cervical cancer or presence of high-grade disease.cobas® HPV is indicated for use as a first-line primary screening test to assess the presence or absence of HPV genotypes 16 and 18. cobas® HPV can also be used with healthcare worker–instructed self-collected vaginal specimens collected in Roche Cell Collection Medium or PreservCyt® Solution.The results from cobas® HPV, together with the physician’s assessment of cytology history, other risk factors, and professional guidelines, may be used to guide patient management. The results of cobas® HPV are not intended to prevent women from proceeding to colposcopy. en
