GlaxoSmithKline plc ADR GSK, Penile Cancer goes worst to Virus
GlaxoSmithKline plc ADR
Researchers said all cases about half of penile cancer are linked to a sexually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer in women and might be prevented with vaccines from Merck & Co. and GlaxoSmithKline Plc.
A review of 31 studies involving 1,466 men with penile cancer found the human papillomavirus was present 46.9 percent of the time, Journal of Clinical Pathology reported. Each year about 26,300 men develop penile cancer. It accounts for less than 1 percent of cancers in European and North American men, and up to 10 percent of tumors in men from Africa and Asia, studies show. The review was funded through Spanish public grants. De Sanjose has received research grants from Merck, its partner Sanofi-Aventis SA and Glaxo. The companies had no role in preparing, analyzing or interpreting the research, the authors of the review said.
