Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).
Most HPV infections cause no symptoms and resolve spontaneously; however if HPV infection persists, it can cause pre-cancerous lesions and increase the risk of cancer of the cervix, vulva, vagina, prostate, anus, mouth and/or throat. Recent clinical trials in Phase 1 has shown the real potential of artemisinin to treat both HPV-related cervical and anal intraepithelial neoplasia.
