Filter by:The aim of this study is to assess the extent of histopathological regression of severe cervical precancerous lesions (CIN 2 and CIN 3); evaluate the proportion of patients who experience the normalization of HPV test and cytology finding among those who were treated conservatively and those who underwent conization; and identify predictive parameters associated with regression. Based on this analysis, a model will be proposed to predict the likelihood of lesion regression.
Cervical cancer is a disease that is preventable through vaccination against the virus that causes it, human papillomavirus (HPV), and through screening and treatment of cervical disease before it becomes cancet.
In the current pilot study, Actions for Collaborative Community-Engaged Strategies for HPV (ACCESS-HPV), investigators will use participatory crowdsourcing methods to drive HPV prevention among mother-daughter dyads. Crowdsourcing open calls will allow us to identify locally relevant messages and dissemination techniques to increase uptake of HPV prevention. Then, participatory learning communities will build capacity for community led implementation of selected strategies. Informed by social learning theory and the PEN-3 cultural model, our multi-disciplinary research team proposes the following specific aims: (1) to develop a new combined campaign to increase HPV vaccination for young girls (ages 9-14) and HPV self-collection for mothers (ages 30-65) using crowdsourcing open calls and participatory learning communities; and (2) to determine the preliminary effectiveness of, seven crowdsourced campaign on uptake of HPV vaccination among young girls/women and HPV self-collection among their mothers. Our primary outcome will be HPV vaccine uptake (ascertained by clinic records of vaccine uptake) among young girls and HPV self-collection (ascertained by laboratory receipt of specimens) among their mothers. The strong support of the Nigerian Institute for Medical Research (NIMR) alongside national HPV programs creates a rich research infrastructure and increases the likelihood of successful implementation. Our multi-disciplinary research team has experience organizing implementation research focused on crowdsourcing and community participation in Nigeria. This pilot study will enhance our understanding of HPV prevention in resource-constrained settings.
Women Living with HIV Infection （WLHIV）are intended to acquire HPV infection which usually contributes to variable cervical lesions. we hypothesize that vaginal microbiota imbalance may make WLHIV prone to HPV infection，thereafter results in severe cervical lesion.
In this study, the investigators will assess whether implementing a self-swab protocol for primary Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) testing is an effective method to increase cervical cancer screening in a sample of unscreened women in Hawaii. The findings of this study may support adoption of HPV self swab protocols both at Kalihi Palama Health Center (KPHC) and other Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) in Hawaii.
This proposed study aims to conduct timely research that promotes vaccine confidence and vaccination of two strongly recommended vaccines with suboptimal uptake rates: Human papillomavirus (HPV) and COVID-19 in vulnerable and underserved youth aged 11-14.
In the R21 phase of this project, investigators will: (1) work with key stakeholders and local and international developers to finalize the mSaada platform, building on the existing prototype to add patient and specimen tracking functionality; and (2) carry out a pilot to identify the patient, provider and health system factors necessary to design a trial to evaluate mSaada effectiveness in assisting community health volunteer-led home-based HPV screening, and implementation factors. Investigators will carry out a six-month pilot of mSaada with community units in two health facilities providing HPV-based screening, and use performance metrics including system usage rates, workflow observations and qualitative data to guide the planning of a to determine effectiveness. In the R33 phase of the project, investigators plan to: (1) conduct an 18-month c-RCT across 12 health facilities to determine the impact of mSaada on cervical cancer screening uptake, treatment acquisition and cervical cancer knowledge levels among women in the community; and (2) measure the requisite implementation factors for mSaada effectiveness, sustainability, and scale-up. The rigorous study design will allow us to determine the clinical impact of mSaada, ensure the local and regional infrastructure has the capacity necessary for sustainability and develop strategies for widespread implementation and scale-up. Collaboration with key stakeholders from the Kenya Ministry of Health will facilitate the development of a long-term sustainability plan as the country moves toward HPV-based cervical cancer screening. Investigators anticipate the mSaada platform will play a pivotal role in facilitating the introduction of HPV-based screening programs that can reach women in settings with limited health care infrastructure.
This research study aims to develop a stigma-responsive educational intervention which includes simplified scripts that provide clear messages about HPV and video aimed at addressing fears and misperceptions from a peer perspective. These educational components will be incorporated into 'Elimisha' HPV a multi-level stigma-responsive cervical cancer prevention service delivery model.
Anal cancer is overrepresented among gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM), particularly those living with HIV. Australia was the first country to introduce a publicly funded national HPV vaccination program in 2007. This program was expanded to include schoolboys aged 12-13 years in 2013; with a 2-year catch-up for boys aged up to 15 years. The goal of the HYPER4 study is to determine the prevalence of anal, genital and oral HPV among 500 young gay and bisexual men aged 21-25 years who were eligible for the school-based gender-neutral quadrivalent vaccination program. Participants will be required to complete a questionnaire and provide samples for HPV testing. No follow-up visits will be required.

This program was expanded to include schoolboys aged 12-13 years in 2013; with a 2-year catch-up for boys aged up to 15 years. In 2018, the 9-valent vaccine (covering genotypes 6/11/16/18/31/33/45/52/58) replaced the 4-valent vaccine in the national program. The goal of the HYPER3 study is to determine the prevalence of anal, genital and oral HPV among 200 young gay and bisexual men aged 16-20 years who were eligible for the school-based 9-valent vaccination. Participants will be required to complete a questionnaire and provide samples for HPV testing. No follow-up visits will be required.
