Filter by: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.
A total of 18000 healthy women aged 18-45 years old were divided into three age groups: 18-26 years old, 27-35 years old, and 36-45 years old. The experimental group and the placebo group were randomly assigned in a ratio of 1:1. All subjects enrolled in the upper arm deltoid muscle were injected with 3 doses of test vaccine or placebo according to the 0, 2, and 6 months immunization program.
This is a phase II double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study of Artesunate suppositories for the treatment of HIV-negative men and women who have anal high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (anal HSIL)
The purpose of this research is to evaluate a new test for oral HPV DNA in saliva ('oral rinse test').
We propose a cross-sectional study to explore the acceptability and feasibility of HPV self-sampling among Quebec women. The study will invite eligible women to self-sample for HPV at home. The HPV risk factors of patients included in the study will be taken into consideration (vaccination, smoking, number of partners, date of last screening, etc.).
This randomized phase IV trial compares intramuscular and intradermal fractional dose of bivalent HPV vaccine to fractional dose of nonavalent HPV vaccine among men and women aged 27-45 years in Seattle, Washington. Participants will have immune response assessed at baseline, 4 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months
Despite declining mortality in high-income countries, cervical cancer continues to be a public health problem in low and middle -income countries. HPV tests have shown a better sensibility and a higher capacity of reducing mortality than cytology based-screening. Greater participation has been demonstrated with the use of HPV self-testing when it is offered to women with a poor screening history; however, it is not clear whether getting tested necessarily translates into a greater adherence to the entire clinical protocol, including diagnosis and treatment of precancerous lesions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the self-testing techniques on the participation and adherence of women to cervical cancer screening.
There are different microbial communities on the surface of human body (skin, hair, nails, etc.) and in the cavity connected with the outside world. The human microbiota is the general term of the genetic information of microorganisms that coexist with human beings and cause various diseases under certain conditions. The results of human microbial genome analysis show that the microbial communities in different parts of the human body and different individuals have amazing diversity, some of which play an important role in human health, and some are closely related to diseases. Female lower genital tract infection is often associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and bacterial vaginosis (BV), such as cervical and vaginal precancerous lesions, cancer, condyloma acuminatum and other sexually transmitted diseases (STD). Persistent infection of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is closely related to the occurrence of invasive cervical cancer. New evidence suggests that vaginal microbiota composition is different in women with HR-HPV infection and high-grade cervical lesions. The increase of the severity of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia is related to the decrease of the relative abundance of vaginal Lactobacillus. In addition to vaginal microbes, the powerful intestinal flora is considered to be the "invisible organ" of the human body. There is a dynamic and balanced interaction network between intestinal microorganisms and human immune cells. Once the intestinal flora is out of balance, the changes in species, quantity, proportion, location and biological characteristics will cause a series of inflammatory reactions and immune system diseases, and even lead to cancer. Some studies have shown that there is a potential relationship between intestinal microorganisms and vaginal microorganisms. Recent research evidence suggests that the mutually beneficial relationship between oral bacteria and other vaginal bacteria supports the colonization of pathogens and may help maintain the characteristics of vaginal flora imbalance.
This is a multi-site, open-label non-inferiority study of the 9vHPV vaccine among a population of children, adolescents and young women living with HIV in Eswatini. This protocol seeks to assess immunogenicity of a two-dose 9vHPV vaccine regimen among girls and boys (9-14 years) and young women (15-26 years) living with HIV on antiretroviral therapy versus a three-dose 9vHPV vaccine regimen among HIV uninfected young women (15-26 years) in Eswatini. The secondary objectives include examining the safety profiles of the two-dose 9vHPV regimen in those living with HIV and the three-dose 9vHPV regimen in HIV-uninfected young women, as well as measuring the completion of the vaccination series among those living with HIV and those who are not infected with HIV.
Add-Vacc is an unblinded cluster-randomised trial (CRT) with two arms: (i) the national HPV vaccination programme (girls aged ~14 years, control arm) and (ii) the national programme plus single-dose male HPV vaccination given to a multi-year cohort of boys (intervention arm). The CRT will be conducted in 26 communities/clusters (13 per arm) in northern Tanzania. Boys aged 14 to 18 years in the intervention arm will receive one dose of the 4-valent HPV vaccine (Gardasil®) that protects against HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18. Population genital HPV prevalence in 18 to 21-year-olds will be compared between intervention clusters (female and male vaccination) and control clusters (female vaccination only) at 3 years after the intervention. Blood sampling for immune responses and adverse event data collection will be performed in a subset of 200 male subjects in selected intervention clusters.
