Filter by:This study is intended to improve the patient experience of communication of colposcopy results and follow-up recommendations to patients. Current practice involves results being forwarded from the colposcopy clinic to the family or referring physician who then informs the patient. We are testing an intervention informed by focus groups in which a trained colposcopy nurse (patient liaison) directly contacts patients with their results and follow-up recommendations while providing education and support. We will examine whether this intervention improves patient satisfaction, reduces anxiety, and improves rates of adherence to follow-up and treatment appointments compared to the current practice.
This study evaluates the use of topical ABI-1968 cream, in the treatment of cervical precancerous lesions in adult women.
HPV-301 is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled Phase 3 study to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of VGX-3100 administered by intramuscular (IM) injection followed by electroporation (EP) delivered with CELLECTRA™ 5PSP in adult women with histologically confirmed cervical high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 [CIN2] or grade 3 [CIN3]) associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 and/or HPV-18.
Background The main risk factor for cervical cancer is the infection by human papillomavirus (HPV), with several intermediate steps between HPV infection and cervical cancer. Cervical screening with pap smear test and HPV vaccination are effective preventions. A high frequency of HPV carriage and of cervical dysplasia have been described in transplanted women. The majority of women with cystic fibrosis reach adulthood and some will face transplantation. Particular attention should therefore be paid to cervical screening. However, low adherence to screening recommendations was noted. In addition, preliminary data has found a high frequency of abnormal smears and of inflammatory aspect of the cervix in women with cystic fibrosis. Objectives of the study The main objective of the study is to determine the prevalence of HPV carriage in a cohort of women with cystic fibrosis The secondary objectives are: - To study the factors associated with the prevalence of HPV (transplantation, smoking, age at first intercourse, number of sexual partners in the year, contraception, gravidity and parity, HPV vaccination) - To describe and to compare with data in the general population, in hospital-based population, (and with data in transplanted population for transplanted women) 1. the prevalence of HPV (and of different genotypes) infection, of cervical dysplasia, of vulvar/vaginal/cervical condylomatosis 2. the rate of HPV persistence (> 12 months), the mean time of HPV clearance; rates of spontaneous regression / persistence / worsening of cervical dysplasia Study design: The study will last 24 months. Includable patients are adult women, transplanted or not, followed at Lyon CRCM. Included women will attend a consultation with a gynaecologist. Pap smear test (liquid phase cytology) and genomic DNA microarray assay enabling the detection of 35 different HPV genotypes will be performed. Patients with an initial abnormal pap smear or a positive HPV test will be monitored: - In case of an abnormal smear and / or positive HPV test, pap smear and HPV testing will be renewed every 6 months during the study period - In case of an abnormal smear: Atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) : the attitude will depend on the result of the HPV test Atypical squamous cells - cannot exclude HSI L (ASC-H), Low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), High-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), Atypical glandular cell of undetermined significance (AGUS) , Atypical glandular cells (AGC) , Adenoma carcinoma in situ (AIS), carcinoma: a colposcopy will be systematically performed Expected results This study will help to determine the frequency of HPV infection and the pathogenic power of HPV in non-transplanted and in transplanted women with cystic fibrosis This data will help to sensitize health professionals on the importance of gynecological care and regular cervical screening, and on the importance of HPV vaccination. In case of a high frequency of genital diseases linked to HPV, recommendations on gynecological monitoring procedures for women with cystic fibrosis could evolve.
To assess the effect of music during colposcopy on women´s anxiety.
This project develops, tests and produces a lightweight, cordless, battery driven and rechargeable hand-held device for treating cervical precancer (Liger Thermal Coagulator). The study evaluates its effectiveness compared to the current standard treatment (cryocautery) when used as part of a screen and treat programme using Visual Inspection with Acetic acid (VIA) in Sub Saharan Africa.
To assess the benefits of large Loop excision of the transformation Zone (LLETZ) under direct colposcopic Vision.
This is a randomized Phase II, three arm control trial in patients with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) 2/3 high grade cervical dysplasia. Patients with CIN 2/3 meeting eligibility criteria will have cervical biopsy specimens centrally reviewed by study pathologist to confirm diagnosis. HPV DNA test and HPV 16/18 genotyping will be performed from endocervical cytobrush samples to determine HPV status associated with the dysplasia. Patients who have CIN 2/3 with HPV+ disease will be enrolled in this study. Patients will be randomized to one of three arms: observation only (control), imiquimod only, imiquimod + 9-valent HPV vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether Self-HPV may be an accurate method for the follow-up of women with a history of HPV infection.
