Using data from the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Infection in Men cohort study, we demonstrate HPV-16 methylation associations with persistent oral HPV infection, the obligate precursor to oropharyngeal cancer. Human papillomavirus type 16 persistence was significantly associated with methylation of HPV-16 L2 CpG-4268 (Wilcoxon P = 0.04), and methylation of HPV-16 E2 CpG Pos 4 (Wilcoxon P = 0.04).
