    Background: HPV-16 driven oropharynx/oral cavity squamous cell carcinomas prevalence varies globally. We evaluated the presence of HPV-16 ctDNA and HPV-16 E6 antibodies in samples obtained from participants treated at the Instituto do Cancer do Estado de Sao Paulo, ICESP, and from whom tumoral HPV DNA, HPV-16 E6*I mRNA, and p16(INK4a) status was also accessed. Methods: HPV was genotyped by PCR-hybridization. All HPV DNA positive and similar to 10 % HPV DNA negative cases underwent p16(INK4a) immunohistochemistry and E6*I RNA testing using a multiplex bead based protocol. HPV-16 ctDNA and anti-E6 antibodies were assessed by ddPCR (digital droplet PCR) and multiplex serology, respectively. Results: The prevalence of HPV-16 in oropharynx carcinoma (OPC) cases was low (8.7 %) when considering solely HPV-16 DNA detection, and even lower (5.2 %) when taken into consideration the concomitant detection of HPV-16 E6*I RNA and/or p16(INK4) (HPV-16 attributable fraction - AF). None of the oral cavity cancer (OCC) cases were detected with HPV-16 DNA. HPV-16 ctDNA was more commonly detected than HPV-16 E6 antibodies (29.8 % versus 10.6 %). Both serum biomarkers attained 100 % sensitivity of detecting HPV-16 AF OPC, however the specificity of the HPV-16 anti-E6 biomarker was higher compared to ctDNA (93.2 % versus 75.0 %). Finally, when both HPV-16 ctDNA and anti-E6 biomarkers were considered together, the sensitivity and specificity for HPV-16 OPC detection was 100 % and about 70 %, respectively, independently of analyzing HPV-16 DNA positive or HPV-16 AF tumors. Conclusions: Our findings corroborate that serum biomarkers are highly sensitive and specific biomarkers for detection of HPV-associated OPC.
