The possibility of using antiviral drugs with immunomodulatory effects in treating HPV-associated diseases

Abstract

Early diagnosis, early detection and treatment of diseases associated with HPV, helps in prevention of precancerous diseases and cancer of the cervix. When surveying women of reproductive age it is appropriate to include testing for HPV viral load. Possibility of using a non-specific antiviral drug with immune modulating effect in patients with ASCUS (atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance) and LSIL (low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions) associated with HPV reduces the risk of viral persistence and increases the chance to avoid exacerbating the severity of the pathological process.
