Filter by:The goal of the ScreenUrSelf trial is to increase cervical cancer screening attendance and compliance to follow-up by offering a first-void urine self-sampling alternative to women who are currently not participating in the organized cervical cancer screening program (defined in this project as un(der)-screened women), either on the woman or her physician's personal initiative, or by responding on the invitation letter.
The purpose of this study is to gain information about intravaginal practices, like intravaginal "twalet deba", among Haitian women living in South Florida. Intravaginal "twalet deba" may include douching, cleaning inside the vagina with different kinds of products, or using steam/vapor that enter the vagina. The investigators want to help learn the best way to increase early detection and/or prevention for cervical cancer. The investigators would like to know what plants, herbs, commercial products and medicines are used in these practices, how these products are prepared, applied, why these products are used, and how these products affect the vagina and cervix.
The purpose of this study is to better understand the natural history of oropharyngeal carcinoma (OPC), with or without an association with the human papilloma virus (HPV). For this study, the investigators plan to collect blood from OPC patients prior to treatment and at six subsequent time points.
The goal of this study is to develop and test an intervention program to improve cervical cancer prevention among Muslim American women. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: - Will the religiously tailored and culturally appropriate intervention program improve participants' knowledge and acceptance of cervical cancer prevention? - Is the intervention program feasible to conduct and acceptable to participants? Participants will be asked to: - Attend focus group sessions to provide input on the development of educational materials. - Complete pre- and post-intervention surveys to measure changes in knowledge and acceptance of cervical cancer prevention. - Engage in the intervention program, which includes education and experiential practice/communication skills training. - Provide feedback through satisfaction surveys. Researchers will compare participant outcomes before and after the intervention to assess its effectiveness. Additionally, the program's feasibility and acceptability will be evaluated based on enrollment rates, successful implementation, participant engagement, retention, and satisfaction.
Asian American (AA) females are disproportionately affected by cervical cancer. Among AA subgroups, Korean American (KA) females had higher risks of developing cervical cancer and rates of cervical cancer mortality compared to white females (11.9, 7.1 per 100,000, respectively). Despite that HPV vaccines have shown to be efficacious in preventing cancers and are recommended for routine vaccinations for youth at age 11 or 12 years, AA females aged 9-17 years have significantly lower HPV vaccine initiation (12.4% vs 27.2%) and completion (1.9% vs 10.3%) rates compared with all other race/ethnicities combined. Using culturally grounded narratives/stories incorporating culture-specific beliefs and practices for health behavior change is effective to mitigate health disparities, specifically for Asian Americans. Storytelling, a specific form of cultural narrative, is showing promise as an effective method of facilitating healthy behaviors through promoting a sense of identification with stories and characters, and transportation (i.e., emotional engagement) as defined in the Model of Narrative as Culture-Centric Health Promotion. We propose to use a digital storytelling approach to gather in-person stories from KA immigrant mothers about HPV vaccination of their children for our intervention.
This is a retrospective cross-sectional study involving the analysis of Cancer Registry Data. As part of this study, cancer registration data collated by the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service (NCRAS; the national cancer registry in England), via NHS Digital data access request service (DARS), will be analysed on all female patients aged between 25-90+ years in England with a registered diagnosis of anal and vaginal and/or vulvar and/or cervical cancer and/or high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) between 2001 and 2019. For these patients information on age at diagnosis, ethnicity, deprivation, performance status, stage of the cancer at diagnosis, the date of each diagnosis, the treatment received for the diagnosis and the route to diagnosis, will be analysed. Additionally, the total number of women/year (between 1995 and 2019), in England, aged between 25-90+ years with a diagnosis of anal, vulvar, vaginal and cervical cancer as well as their respective HSILs will be requested. Together this data will be used to establish the incidence of anal cancer and HSIL in women with genital cancers and/or HSILs, the progression timelines between the different pathologies, as well as identify relevant sociodemographic risk factors in this patient group.
This study aims to investigate the relationship between HPV genotypes and treatment outcomes of intralesional immunotherapy of anogenital warts with the quadrivalent vaccine (Gardasil).
The researchers will be conducting a prospective randomized trial where the researchers will be introducing an educational video to see whether there is an increase in knowledge scores surrounding cervical cancer, cervical cancer screening, and prevention with HPV vaccinations.
This is a placebo-controlled, triple-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) designed to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a larger multicentric RCT investigating the effect of a Carrageenan mouthwash on oral HPV infection. Eligible participants will complete a single in-person visit at baseline, filling out a questionnaire on their electronic device and giving an oral rinse sample for HPV testing. They will receive an adequate supply of mouthwash and instructions on its use. They will subsequently be followed up for up to six months. Every two weeks, participants will fill out a follow-up questionnaire on mouthwash use and sexual activities and self-collect oral rinse sample to be returned by mail.
This trial will look at the impact of clinic-level financial incentives to improve provider communication and increase HPV vaccine uptake. Some clinics will receive communication training. Other clinics will receive the same training and a clinic-level financial incentive program with a monthly data feedback report to increase HPV vaccine uptake.
