Abstract

A method for detecting integrated HPV DNA is described herein. This method comprises obtaining first and second samples, obtaining first and second information, and detecting, based on the first and second information, the HPV DNA integrated into the genome of a cell derived from a subject. The second sample comprises DNA derived from the cell, which is treated with an enzyme having exonuclease activity. The first information is related to the amount of HPV DNA in the first sample, and the second information is related to the amount of HPV DNA in the second sample.
