Filter by:This study is to investigate retrospectively the results of cervical cytology and high-risk human papillomavirus in the past 20 years recorded in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The histological findings after cervical cancer screening were reviewed. The diagnostic values of different screening strategies were compared based on the results of cervical histology. The primary endpoint is the diagnosis of grade 2 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2) or more severe lesions (CIN2+). The secondary endpoints include following objectives: (1) the invasive procedures needed according to the screening results; (2) the diagnosis of vaginal and/or vulval intraepithelial neoplasia; (3) the persistence and recurrence of human papillomavirus infection; and (4) the cost-effectiveness of screening strategies for CIN2+.
Based on the previous study of NCT04651738, we performed this trial to further confirm the accuracy of host DNA CDO1 and CELF4 methylation for endometrial cancer screening. This study would provide profound basis for the approval of assay kit of DNA methylation in China for endometrial screening. Four hospitals, including Peking Union Medical College Hospital, would enroll eligible patients in this study. The cervical cytology of 3 ml will be collected for the detection of DNA CDO1 and CELF4 methylation, and the results will compared with the endometrial histological pathology, which is achieved after collection of cervical cytology, by surgeries including hysteroscopy, dilation and curettage, total hysterectomy and others. The methylation testing would be double-blinded in operators and analysts. The study will enroll at least 7150 patients.
Based on the previous study of NCT04651738, we performed this trial to further confirm the accuracy of host DNA CDO1 and CELF4 methylation for endometrial cancer screening in a multi-center cohort. Thirteen hospitals, including Peking Union Medical College Hospital, would enroll eligible patients in this study. The cervical cytology of 3 ml will be collected for the detection of DNA CDO1 and CELF4 methylation, and the results will compared with the endometrial histological pathology, which is achieved after collection of cervical cytology, by surgeries including hysteroscopy, dilation and curettage, total hysterectomy and others. The methylation testing would be double-blinded in operators and analysts. The study will enroll at least 10,000 patients.
Liquid biopsy is challenging for the diagnosis of endometrial cancer. In this study, investigators perform the methylation testing of host DNA, namely, BHLHE22, CELF4, HAND2, and ZNF177, in the peripheral serum to discover the diagnostic and supervision roles of DNA methylation in endometrial cancer. The study compromises two stages. In the training set, DNA methylation testing is performed in the endometrial tissues from patients with endometrial cancer and paired benign uterine lesions. The cut-off values of methylation are produced in this stage. On the meantime, DNA methylation testing is also performed in serum and in cervical cytology to reveal its accordance and accuracy compared with the results of endometrial tissues. In the validation set, serum DNA methylation testing is performed in unselected patients with definite endometrial histology to validate its accuracy. In training and validation sets, serum DNA methylation is also performed after major surgeries for endometrial cancer as to illustrate the changes of methylation testing, therefore, reflection the supervision role of DNA methylation.
