Abstract:
The invention relates to method for detecting HPV-induced high-grade precancerous lesions, HPV-induced invasive cancers and nonHPV-induced gynaecological and anogenital cancers, said method comprising detection of a methylation classifier consisting of the genes LHX8, ASCL1 and ST6GALNAC5 and their regulatory sequence in a cell whereby such hypermethylation indicates the presence of HPV-induced precursor lesions with invasive potential, HPV-induced invasive cancers and nonHPV-induced gynaecological and anogenital cancers. The invention further comprises the use of the methylation classifier consisting of genes LHX8, ASCL1 and ST6GALNAC5 and their regulatory sequence in such a method and a test kit for the detection of LHX8. ASCL1 and/or ST6GALNAC5 methylation.
