Filter by:Cervical cytology screening coverage in Northern Ireland (the proportion of eligible women, aged 25-64 years who have had a test result recorded in the previous five years) has increased steadily since 2005 to 78% in 2012/2013; almost reaching the 80% coverage target. The uptake of cervical screening among women in the 25-29 year age group in Northern Ireland however, has remained consistently lower (70-73%) than all other age groups except for the 60-64 year age group where the coverage rate is similar. The main barriers preventing women from attending for cervical screening are: embarrassment; inconvenience; time and discomfort associated with obtaining cervical samples. Studies have shown that offering women the opportunity to collect a vaginal self-sample to test for HPV (the main risk factor for cervical cancer) could increase screening coverage. Non-attenders in the Western and Belfast Health and Social Care Trust area, aged 25-29 years, will be identified by GPs. Letters with information relating to the study and collection devices will be sent to women giving them two options: 1. inviting them to book a normal screening appointment; 2. inviting them to collect a self-sample for HPV testing with either a swab or brush collection device. Participants for receipt of swab or brush will be randomised. Acceptance to participate in the study will be indicated by signed consent. Returned self-collected samples will be HPV tested. If a sample is negative, no further investigation is required and the woman will be encouraged to accept her next screening invitation. If a sample is positive the woman will be encouraged to book a screening appointment. The study will evaluate: impact on screening uptake, acceptance of self-sampling for both devices, practicality and cost-effectiveness of the intervention.
The combination of radiation therapy or chemoradiation with Interstitial brachytherapy for advanced cervical cancer (pN+, FIGO-Stage II B - IV A is standard of therapy. The radio- and chemosensitive effect of an additional hyperthermia might improve the clinical outcome.
The purpose of the trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of continued treatment with tisotumab vedotin.
For stage Ib2-IIa2 cervical cancer patients, neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy is one of the managements. Post-operative concurrent chemo-radiotherapy is necessary if the patients have high-risk factors, including positive surgical margin, parametrium and pelvic nodes. Our previous retrospective study showed that combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and brachytherapy reduced the proportion of post-operative concurrent chemo-radiotherapy compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone.
To investigate the acute toxicities, late toxicities, and treatment results when the early cervical cancer patients are treated by hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy (2.5 Gy X 16 fractions, once a day) after radical hysterectomy.

This study evaluates the use of topical ABI-1968 cream, in the treatment of cervical precancerous lesions in adult women.
Compare the use of radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy, with the single use of radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with stage IIIB uterine cancer, having as an outcome the three year survival rate, the disease free survival rate, the locoregional control of the disease and the security of the treatments provided. Specific objectives 1. Describe and compare the demographic and clinical characteristics of both groups. 2. Compare the three year survival rate in both groups. 3. Compare the response to treatment in terms of locoregional control of the disease. 4. Compare the appearance of severe and non severe adverse events directly related to the treatment in both intervention groups.
Cervical cancer is one of the leading malignancies affecting women, with 311,000 deaths in 2018, most of them seen in underdeveloped countries. This neoplasm has a pre-invasive state, such as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), which is caused by HPV (Human Papillomavirus) infection. The female organism most often is able to eliminate the virus, especially in young patients. However, when the infection becomes persistent, especially for subtypes 16 and 18, the risk of CIN developing an increased. Cytological screening programs can efficiently and wirelessly do this. As high-grade intraepithelial lesions (CIN 2/3) are as demonstrated by worse regression rate, only 13.3% at one year, and higher risk for progression to invasive cancer. As CIN 2/3 need treatment, and as more therapies as they are excisional, which theoretically are better, however, they may compromise the reproductive future of women who are unthreatened, increasing the risk of preterm labor, premature rupture of amniotic membranes, low weight Birth and perinatal mortality. This relationship aroused interest in seeking alternative therapies. Decrease antiviral activity directed against HPV, associated with a higher rate of elimination of the infection. Immediate, an agent that stimulates like dendritic cells to producer cytokines and activates epithelial T cells. Imiquimode, when used in vulvar neoplasias, has been shown to be effective, presenting satisfactory results without treatment of CIN 2/3 of the uterine cervix, requiring a better scientific compilation. Based on these data, this study aims to evaluate the efficacy of topical immunomodulatory treatment for high-grade cervical intraepithelial lesions.
The Study goals are to test feasibility and acceptability of point of care HPV testing with 227 women already accessing an existing cancer screening program in Mumbai, India. Describe HPV infection types in women screened. Compare if the quality of HPV clinician-collected and self-collected samples are equally efficient to detect HPV and cervical cancer precursor lesions. Compare the agreement between HPV GeneXpert and HPV HC2 test on the clinician-collected sample
