Session Description
The global HPV laboratory network (LabNet) was organized by the WHO in 2007 to promote the quality-assured laboratory services required for HPV DNA and antibody detection. A large number of countries officially appointed National HPV Reference Laboratories (NRL) and in 2021 the Global Network of National HPV Reference Laboratories was formed to continue promoting the quality-assured HPV testing services that will be required for optimal HPV and cervical cancer elimination strategies. The purpose of this satellite symposium with participation of NRLs from Australia, Japan, Turkey, Belgium, France, Germany, Scotland, Slovenia, South Africa, Sweden, Norway, USA, and Argentina is to report on activities and exchange scientific and practical information. The tentative topics are: (1) NRL re-analysis of HPV-negative high-grade cervical lesions as a means to further testing quality; (2) key performance indicators for HPV-based screening (3) joint resources for furthering HPV testing quality: global proficiency panels; E-learning resources and (4) role of reference laboratories to further HPV elimination. The symposium is open to all laboratories interested in HPV testing, with the hope that the support from the NRLs can be increasingly effective for contributing to advancement of HPV testing services.
