Increased High-Risk Human Papillomavirus Viral Load Is Associated With Immunosuppressed Microenvironment and Predicts a Worse Long-Term Survival in Cervical Cancer Patients

Abstract

Patients with increased HR-HPV viral load tend to be resistant to therapy with decreased immune surveillance in the immune microenvironment. Thus, HR-HPV viral load would influence the local immune microenvironment, and then further affect the survival of cervical cancer patients.
