FAM19A4/miR124‐2 methylation in invasive cervical cancer: A retrospective cross‐sectional worldwide study

Widespread adoption of primary human papillomavirus (HPV)‐based screening has encouraged the search for a triage test which retains high sensitivity for the detection of cervical cancer and precancer, but increases specificity to avoid overtreatment. Methylation analysis of FAM19A4 and miR124‐2 genes has shown promise for the triage of high‐risk (hr) HPV‐positive women. In our study, we assessed the consistency of FAM19A4 / miR124‐2 methylation...
