Filter by:The Pocket colposcope has 510k FDA clearance and has been successfully used in ~2500 unique patients globally in Duke and non-Duke protocols to date. 1054 women who are HPV(+) and planned to undergo treatment at 4-6 Ministry of Health-supported outpatient clinics in Kisumu County will be recruited to the study. After providing informed consent, participants will be proceed with colposcopy using the POCKET colposcope.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of 15-valent HPV vaccine in 9-45year-old participants.
The research project is a component of another research project that applies the protocol of the World Health Organization for screening of cervical cancer, with testing of high-risk Human Papilloma Virus (hrHPV) as first screening. In the screen, triage and treat approach women who tested positive for hrHPV are undergoing Visual Inspection of the cervix with Acetic Acid (VIA). This procedure is applied in Uganda, India and Bangladesh. However the quality of VIA by lower-trained staff is variable because Low and Middle Income Countries face limited numbers of qualified health care professionals. Artificial intelligence (AI) might be a solution to improve consistency of VIA assessment. This research validates an AI decision support system (AI-DSS) under field conditions.
Given that WLWH are more likely to develop persistent HPV infection and CC, effective screening and the management and treatment of pre-cancerous cervical abnormalities is critical to decrease the global burden of cervical cancer. The vast majority of WLWH live in SSA, where resources are more constrained. Therefore, simple, affordable, and effective tools are needed for the prevention of cervical cancer in SSA. In this setting, the best method for treatment of screen-positive WLWH has not been determined. The proposed study will compare the effectiveness of TA vs. LEEP, for treating precursor lesions (CIN 2/3) and HPV infection in WLWH, identify the determinants of treatment failure, and develop a strategy to predict patients in whom treatment is likely to fail so that alternative treatments can be provided. Moreover, local evidence of the optimal method of treatments is necessary to inform health policy and promote adherence.
ELEVATE is a six-year project, conducted by an international research alliance led by Ghent University, aiming to develop a new test and approach for cervical cancer screening in hard-to-reach populations. In this final stage of the project, a hospital-based validation study is deployed in Belgium and Ecuador to clinically validate the new ELEVATE screening test based on self-samples and endocervical samples. The simultaneous detection of HPV DNA and the proteomic markers allows for the detection of those cervical HPV infections associated with progression towards cervical cancer. At each study site, 100 women between 30-65 years old, with a recent abnormal pap smear result will be recruited in the colposcopy waiting room. After registration and signing the informed consent form, each woman will be asked to fill out a short self-administered questionnaire for socio-demographic information. Each woman will provide a self-sample as well as an endocervical sample before the colposcopy examination. Both samples of all 200 women (i.e. participants from Belgium and Ecuador) will be tested with the new ELEVATE screening test, using 400 ELEVATE cartridges, as well as with standard tests. Besides analyzing all samples on the new ELEVATE screening test, the following standard tests will also be performed on all samples (at Ghent University - including the shipped samples of Ecuador): - AnyplexTM II HPV HR Detection (Segeene Inc., Korea): approved comparison test - ELISA protein detection: only available comparison test In order to generate HPV DNA results locally, that can be communicated to the participants in short time (versus waiting for AnyplexTM II HPV HR Detection test results after shipment to Belgium), in Ecuador the following additional standard test will be performed on the100 endocervical samples (before shipment to Belgium): • HPV DNA Mole Bioscience test Concordance between the test results of the ELEVATE screening test and standard lab tests on both type of samples will be defined, for HPV DNA as well as protein detection. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of the HPV DNA test and the protein test of the ELEVATE screening test will be defined, according to clinically relevant outcomes.
Main objective: -To determine Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) prevalence in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID) using vaginal self-sampling (VSS), one year after VSS was proposed Primary endpoint: - To determine the prevalence of HPV infection (yes/no) after VSS proposal Secondary objectives: - To describe the HPV typology and the rate of co-infection (with several high-risk HPV (HR-HPV)) in this population - To describe the factors associated with the presence of HPV infection - To determine the rate of HPV clearance after one year, during the second screening at 12 months- To determine the percentage of pre-cancerous cervical lesions and cervical cancer in the event of subsequent cervical smear - To determine the factors associated with persistence (or non-clearance ) of HPV infection - To determine the factors associated with the presence of pre-cancerous and cancerous cervical lesions - To determine the characteristics, tolerance and acceptability of VSS - To determine the rate of cervical cancer screening carried out following French Health Authorities guidelines -To determine the HPV vaccination coverage Secondary endpoints: 1/ HPV typology and presence of co-infection (Yes/No, type) or HPV multi-infection (more than 2 HPV, Yes/No) identified on samples at inclusion and at 1 year. 2/ Explanatory variables: demographic, clinical, biological factors and treatments (corticoids, immunosuppressive treatments); variable to be explained: presence of HPV infection during follow-up. 3/ Characteristics, acceptability, obstacles and tolerance of VPA reported by self-questionnaire (including procedure failures, bleeding and pain). 4/ Up-to-date cervical cancer screening rate in accordance with HAS recommendations at 12 months post-procedure. 5/ Proportion of cervical cytological abnormalities and cervical cancer authenticated on cervico-vaginal smear, if performed (histological confirmation if available) during follow-up. 6/ Explanatory variables: demographic, clinical, biological factors and treatments (corticoids, immunosuppressants; variable to be explained: presence of cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer, authenticated on cervico-vaginal smear, if performed (histological confirmation if available) during follow-up. 7/ HPV vaccination coverage rate (measured on initial self-questionnaire) 8/ Prevalence of HR-HPV(s) at second screening at one year, in the case of initial positivity (Persistence of HPV infection (Yes/No). 9/ Explanatory variables: demographic, clinical, biological factors and treatments (corticoids, immunosuppressive treatments); variable to be explained: persistence of cervical HPV infection at one year (in the case of initial positivity).
This is a prospective, single-center, observational proof-of-principle clinical trial at the Department of Women's Health of the University Hospital Tübingen.
The purpose of the study is to test the effect of the administration of a dietary supplement consisting of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), vitamin B12 and folic acid in the treatment of infections with papilloma virus of the cervix.
One of the limitations of organized cervical screening in the Czech Republic is the lack of participation in preventive gynecological examinations. The aim of the project is to evaluate the benefits of self-sampling for HPV DNA in general practitioners' outpatient clinics to improve population participation in cervical screening.
This is a randomized phase II study. The primary goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of three monthly pBI-11 DNA administrations in each thigh of patients with persistent human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) and/or human papillomavirus (HPV18+).
