Triaging of women positive for high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) on self-collected samples requires a molecular reflex test to avoid recall for cytology or visual tests. We assessed triage performance and predictive value of human gene methylation panel (ZNF671/ASTN1/ITGA4/RXFP3/SOX17/DLX1) alone and with combination of HPV16/18 genotyping in a longitudinal screening study. Out of 9526 women at baseline, 1758 women positive for hrHPV on self-collected samples followed up yearly were included in the current analysis. Satisfactory risk stratification to detect cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) was demonstrated by the methylation panel with an odds ratio (OR) of 11.3 among methylation-positive women compared to methylation-negative counterparts. Triaging with methylation panel reduced colposcopy referral rate by 67.2% with sensitivity and specificity of 83.0% and 69.9% to detect CIN2+. The corresponding values for the combining methylation and HPV 16/18 were 96.6% and 58.3%. The cumulative 3-year incident CIN2+ risk was 6.8% (95% CI: 4.9%-8.6%) for hrHPV positive women, which was reduced to 4.5% (95% CI: 2.7%-6.3%) and 2.9% (95% CI: 1.2%-4.5%) for women negative on methylation triaging alone and negative on the combined strategy. The corresponding risk for women positive for both methylation and HPV 16/18 reached 33.7% (95% CI: 19.0%-45.8%). Our study demonstrated the satisfactory triage performance and predictive value of the methylation panel, especially in combination with HPV 16/18 genotyping. The substantially lower risk of CIN2+ among the triage negative women over the next 3 years suggests that the interval for repeat HPV test can be safely extended to at least 2 years.
