Study Summary

This trial studies the screening of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal and anogenital cancers. Learning the relationship between HPV and cancer risk in men who test positive for HPV antibodies or circulating HPV DNA may help doctors to develop early methods of screening for certain types of cancer, and screening for HPV may help doctors to learn which patients may be at a higher risk for developing certain types of cancer.

Primary Outcome

Will use the proportion equality test to compare the cancer detection rate of the seropositive group using the screening strategy with the historical rate of 0.08 (4/50). To evaluate the performance of the new techniques for early detection, will test whether the proportion of patients diagnosed at stage I, II, or III from the screening strategy is larger than the historical rate of 17.7% using the proportion equality test. Will further compute and compare the pre-cancer detection rates with the
