Oral Papilloma Virus, Microbiota and Cancer in People Living with HIV (OHPVMC)
REFNo: HS2541ES
Aim 1: To characterize and understand oncogenic Oral Human Papilloma Virus (OHPV) infections in People Living With HIV (PLWHIV)in reference to non-clearance of OHPV. To test our hypothesis that the oncogenic OHPV type 16 infections in PLWHIV are associated with non-clearance, we will use a prospective cohort design to characterize and understand OHPV infections in PLWHIV.
Aim 2: To determine the differences in the periodontitis associated bacteria of PLWHIV with or without OHPV. To test our hypothesis that OHPV is associated with the presence of periodontitis associated oral bacteria, we will compare the patterns of periodontitis (red and orange complex) associated bacteria in PLWHIV in the presence or absence of OHPV infections.
