Filter by:The goal of this study is to learn if women of Hispanic/Latina ethnicity are willing to self-collect a cervico-vaginal sample for HPV testing. The main question the study will answer is: • Does a brief educational intervention increase the feasibility and acceptability of HPV self-sampling among Hispanic/Latina women? The study team will compare whether including a brief educational intervention with a mailed HPV self-sampling kit is more acceptable than receiving a mailed HPV self-sampling kit alone. Participants will be asked to complete surveys at study entry (baseline) and then randomized to receive only the HPV self-sampling kit, or the kit plus a small group education that meets with a bilingual health educator. Participants will then be contacted about one-month later to complete a follow-up survey. The study team will also measure the number of participants in each group who self-collect a sample and mail it in for HPV testing.
Online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) has demonstrated to be feasible to reduce planning target volume (PTV) margins for cervical cancer. To explore the value of reduced margins in oART for cervical cancer, we conducted a prospective clinical trial to determine the clinical efficacy and toxicity of reduced margins.
Online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) has demonstrated to be feasible to reduce planning target volume (PTV) margins for postoperative treatment of endometrial and cervical cancer. To explore the value of reduced margins in oART for postoperative treatment of endometrial and cervical cancer, we conducted a prospective clinical trial to determine the clinical efficacy and toxicity of reduced margins.
Online adaptive radiotherapy has demonstrated to be feasible to reduce inter-fractional radiotherapy errors as it re-optimizes treatment plan every fraction. To investigate the extent and value of margin reduction，we conduct a prospective clinical trial to determine the optimal margin and toxicity of smaller margin.
The overall aim of the study is to increase participation rates in cervical cancer (CCU) and colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programmes in Denmark by offering home-based CCU and CRC screening to women who are overdue for one or both screening programmes when attending breast cancer screening
Most uterine cervical high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are transient, with only a small fraction developing into cervical cancer. Family aggregation studies and heritability estimates suggest a significant inherited genetic component. Candidate gene studies and previous genome-wide association studies (GWASs) report associations between the HLA region and cervical cancer. Adopting a genome-wide approach, we aimed to establish an early warning model for a high-risk population of cervical cancer.
The Self-Testing options in the Era of Primary HPV screening for cervical cancer (STEP) trial will evaluate effectiveness of home-based HPV kits for improving cervical cancer screening uptake and its cost-effectiveness. The investigators will compare cervical cancer screening uptake within six months among women randomized to different outreach approaches based on prior screening behavior: A) Adherent and coming due: direct mail HPV kit vs. opt-in HPV kit vs. education; B) Overdue: direct mail HPV kit vs. education; C) Unknown: opt-in HPV kit vs. education.
Cervical cancer is one of the major health problems for chinese women. Besides surgery and radiotherapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been proved to be an effective program by many studies. However, not all patients respond well to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This is an open-label, single-arm, multi-center clinical trial to evaluate whether PD-1 in combination with neoadjuvant chemotherapy will achieve better objective response rate.
This study evaluates the effect and feasibility of expanding the target population in the Danish cervical cancer screening program to include women aged 65 to 69 years. The study also evaluates if HPV self-sampling constitutes an appropriate screening method among older women.
Prevention of cervical cancer with cervical screening is one of the most successful screening activities in medicine. In Sweden, screening was implemented in the 1960s and has since prevented tens of thousands of women from having cervical cancer. Individual invitations to screening result in increased attendance therefore evaluating strategies for reaching women through invitations is particularly valuable. Women who regularly attend screening following an invitation reduce their risk of cervical cancer by as much as 90%. Of the women who are diagnosed with cervical cancer (about 550 women per year in Sweden), as many as 38% did not participate in the screening. Invitations for screening are sent to the entire population in Sweden aged 23-70. The current coverage of screening is 82.9%, which represents the proportion of women ages 23-70 who attend according to recommendations. In addition, many women are sporadic attenders who reduce their risk for cancer somewhat. The highest cancer risk is seen among those women who have never participated as well as women who have had a history of precancerous lesions or HPV infection but have not been followed-up. Cervical cancer is the first form of cancer for which there are approved molecular screening tests (HPV test). Unlike the older screening method (cytology), self-collected samples can be analyzed for HPV (the analysis method is so sensitive that it does not matter if the sample is not optimally taken). Invitations and reminders about cervical screening are sent by letter to the woman's home address (about 3 million letters per year in Sweden). This strategy results in a waste of resources and has a negative environmental impact. Regarding reminders, we have seen in previous research that the effect is not optimal. When sending a physical reminder letter to women who have not participated in more than 10 years (current routine), only 2% of the women invited came for sampling. Reminders with SMS are now standard for many businesses in society, such as car testing or dental appointments. It is inexpensive, saves the environment and there are studies that suggest it is more effective than sending physical letters. In this study, we intend to investigate whether SMS reminders, electronic letters, and physical letters for screening lead to increased participation and thus to a higher proportion of detected, treatable precursors of cervical cancer compared to before.
