abstract = {Sinonasal carcinomas are rare but aggressive malignancies.
A subset is associated with high-risk HPV, but risk factors
for HPV-associated sinonasal carcinoma (HPV-SNC) and
HPV-independent disease remain poorly understood.To evaluate
behavioral and clinical risk factors, including sexual
history and substance use, and HPV antibody seropositivity
in patients with HPV-SNC and HPV-independent SNC.This
multi-institutional case-case-control study was conducted
from 2021 to 2024 at two NCI-designated cancer centers.
Fifty-two patients with sinonasal carcinoma were enrolled;
37 completed a survey of demographic, clinical, and
behavioral factors (24 HPV-SNC, 13 HPV-independent SNC) and
serology was obtained for 36 (24 HPV-SNC, 12 HPV-independent
SNC). Control noncancer otolaryngology patients (n = 148)
from a recent prior study were matched 4:1.Self-reported
history of sexual behaviors, substance use, and medical
history via electronic survey; serum testing for antibodies
to low- and high-risk HPV E6, E7, E1, E2, and L1
oncoproteins using a multiplex bead-based assay.Odds of
HPV-SNC or HPV-independent SNC diagnosis in relation to risk
factors; differences in HPV seropositivity between
groups.Among the 37 cancer patients who completed the
survey, a history of tonsillectomy was significantly
associated with reduced odds of HPV-SNC (OR 0.28, CI
0.09-0.86). No other factors explored (sexual behavior,
substance use, or other clinical factors) were associated
with HPV-associated SNC and HPV-independent SNC.
Seroprevalence of anti-HPV16 E6 was significantly higher
among HPV-associated SNC cases than either controls or
HPV-independent SNC $(45.8\%$ vs. $0\%$ and $13.1\%),$
HPV-16 E6 $(18.2\%$ vs. $0\%$ and $4.0\%),$ and HPV-16 early
proteins $(16.7\%$ vs. $0\%$ and $0\%)$ than HPV-independent
SNC patients or controls, respectively.HPV-SNC exhibits
distinct serologic features without clear behavioral risk
factors. The protective association of tonsillectomy
suggests lymphoid tissue may play a role in HPV-associated
sinonasal oncogenesis. In contrast, the absence of
identifiable risk factors for HPV-independent SNC highlights
the need for further etiologic studies.},
