Analysis of the Results of Severe Intraepithelial Squamous Cell Lesions and Preinvasive Cervical Cancer Phototheranostics in Women of Reproductive Age

(1) Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of using PDT in the treatment of severe intraepithelial squamous lesions of the cervix and preinvasive cervical cancer associated with HPV in women of reproductive age. (2) Methods: The examination and treatment of 45 patients aged 22–49 years with...

description (1) Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of using PDT in the treatment of severe intraepithelial squamous lesions of the cervix and preinvasive cervical cancer associated with HPV in women of reproductive age. (2) Methods: The examination and treatment of 45 patients aged 22–49 years with morphologically confirmed HPV-associated cervical intraepithelial neoplasia of a severe degree (17 patients) and preinvasive cervical cancer (28 patients) were performed. All patients underwent PDT of the cervix using a chlorin e6 photosensitizer; after which, the affected areas of the cervix were evaluated using video and spectral fluorescence diagnostics. PDT effectiveness was assessed on the basis of colposcopy data, a cytological examination of exo- and endocervix and PAP test scrapings or the liquid cytology method, and polymerase chain reaction for HPV carriage 4 weeks after PDT, as well as on the basis of histological and immunohistochemical studies of biopsy materials 5 weeks after PDT. The expression levels of the Ki-67 and p16 markers in the affected areas of the cervix were also assessed. (3) Results. All patients included in the study tolerated the intravenous administration of the photosensitizer well, with no side effects or allergic reactions observed. In 88.2% of patients with CIN III/HSIL and in 85.7% of women with preinvasive cervical cancer, the effect of the treatment was noted after the first PDT procedure, while complete regression of the dysplasia foci was observed in 15 women (88.2%) with CIN III/HSIL and in 25 patients (89.3%) with preinvasive cervical cancer. Partial regression to the form of LSIL/CIN I was noted in two cases (11.8%) in the CIN III/HSIL group and in three cases (10.7%) in the group of patients with preinvasive cervical cancer. After PDT, a statistically significant decrease in the expression of the Ki-67 and p16 levels relative to the initial values was noted. (4) Conclusions. The results obtained indicate the high efficiency of PDT with intravenous administration of the chlorin photosensitizer for the treatment of intraepithelial lesions of the cervix with a selective effect on pathologically altered tissue. The use of this approach makes it possible to preserve the normal anatomical and functional characteristics of the cervix, which is especially important for maintaining the fertility of patients.
