QIAGEN focuses new HPV test ad campaign on real-life story of woman's escape from cervical cancer

Germantown, MD

Jodi McKinney, mother of five and wife of nearly 20 years, was recently diagnosed with cervical disease. Fortunately, she was able to be treated before it became cervical cancer -- thanks in part to her physician's decision to order an HPV test along with her Pap. Despite her initially normal Pap smear, the HPV test found that Jodi had a high-risk type of the human papillomavirus -- the primary cause of cervical cancer. Now, Jodi, her entire family and her physician are the focus of a new television campaign launched by QIAGEN to share what Jodi learned about cervical cancer prevention with other women across America. QIAGEN is the developer of the digene HPV Test, the only FDA-approved test for HPV.
