NCT07428330
This Clinical Trials Network for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-Associated Cervical Cancer Screening and Treatment Optimization (CASCADE) -3001-A trial aims to assess how the introduction of a community-health-worker-facilitated model, in addition to the existing static clinic-only model, influences the rates of cervical cancer screening uptake among women living with HIV (WLWH). This study involves offering HPV self-collection for cervical cancer screening to eligible WLWH. The 'CASCADE' Network is a clinical trials network aimed at improving cervical cancer screening, management, and pre-cancer treatment for WLWH, in various healthcare settings. The network will conduct implementation trials to improve the triage of HPV-positive WLWH, as well as algorithms to optimize access to and options for effective treatment. Trials will be conducted using a mixed-methods approach aimed at assessing implementation strategies and outcomes and their potential to integrate into existing health systems. Further understanding of HPV-based community-based strategies to reach WLWH, and the acceptability, feasibility, appropriateness, and cost of these strategies will be valuable for cervical cancer screening programs serving WLWH. Inputs from various 'CASCADE' Clinical Sites (CS) regarding feasible screening outreach options available in their settings for WLWH have guided this study that focuses on evaluating a pragmatic HPV self-collection implementation model to improve access to screening. While it is clear that HPV self-collection is a highly acceptable and feasible screening option, creating opportunities to conduct self-collection in alternative venues outside the clinic premises, and with the guidance of and facilitation by trusted community healthcare workers (defined hereafter as facility-link facilitators (FLFs)) is an important implementation strategy that needs to be evaluated and considered for its potential benefit. Studies have not yet evaluated a community-based approach for HPV self-collection kit distribution among WLWH - who may have different characteristics, preferences, and access to screening services than women not living with HIV. Providing WLWH with the option of receiving HPV self-collection kits in their own homes or other community-based settings ('community-based HPV self-collection') is a novel implementation strategy that could improve cervical cancer screening rates among eligible women. Therefore, this novel trial aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing community-based HPV self-collection among WLWH.
NCT07225530
This study aims to conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of same-day HPV-based screen and treat among women living with HIV (WLH) in La Romana, Dominican Republic. With cervical cancer being a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women living with HIV, and cervical cancer deaths being preventable through screening and early detection, this project seeks to identify factors associated with the successful implementation of the Screen, Triage, and Treat approach to inform future implementation and scale-up.
NCT05883111
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common virus that spreads through skin-to-skin contact. Some HPV types can cause changes in cells that lead to cancer and are known as 'high-risk' HPV (hrHPV). hrHPV is linked to cancers of the cervix (opening of the womb), throat, and anus (exit of the bowel). It is not known if transgender people (individuals whose gender identity does not align with their sex assigned at birth) are at increased risk of hrHPV or cancers caused by hrHPV compared to cisgender people (individuals whose gender identity does align with their birth sex). There is also little knowledge about HPV in the vagina for transgender women who have surgery to make one. Transgender men may be at higher risk of cervical cancer than cisgender women because they are less likely to go for screening. This can be because of physical discomfort and emotional distress during screening when a swab is taken directly from the cervix. The investigators seek to examine how common hrHPV is in transgender people in different parts of the body. In the study, participants will take swabs from the vagina and anus, a urine sample, and use mouthwash. Transgender men will also have an extra swab taken by a clinician as part of routine cervical screening. This is to see if the swab from the vagina is as good as the one from the cervix for finding cells that might lead to cancer. Participants will also take an online survey to measure the acceptability of self-sampling compared to clinician sampling. This research can inform HPV prevalence and decision-making about HPV screening among transgender people.

NCT04278326
Human papilloma virus (HPV) is responsible of the most common sexually transmitted infection. It can cause severe cancer lesions, of the cervix, vulva, vagina, penis and oropharynx. The International Agency for Cancer Research of World Health Organization (WHO) classified a dozen of HPV related high-risk cancer types, and recognized cervical cancer as the most common HPV-related disease. HPV 16 and 18 are responsible for 70% of cervical cancers. Due to the few symptoms of cervical cancer, women are often diagnosed with advanced state. Current treatments imply cervical conisation or hysterectomy, with or without lymphadenectomy and or radiotherapy, or chemotherapy. However, few pharmacological options are available against oncogenic papilloma viruses and thus against recurrences The aim of this project is to develop relevant organoids models from patient biopsies that will be used to identify biomarkers and evaluate in a closest preclinical setting novel nucleic acids based therapeutic strategy for HPV-cervical-vaginal dysplasia and cancers.
NCT06452004
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.
NCT06137950
Mongolia is a traditionally nomadic and population is scarce in rural areas. Thus, the medical care service is not sufficient. In 2000, Mongolian government has developed and implemented the millennium project in cooperation with WHO. During the years pap smear analysis of implemented in all rural areas and clinicians, lab technicians have been taught for the cervical cancer screening. However, the project has finished in 2015 and the rural and district hospitals has lost the trained professionals. Still the cervical cancer is in second place after liver cancer in women. The purpose of the study is to identify the type of HPV genotype and to treat the HPV infection by local interferon α2b. Materials and methods: HPV positive patients will be enrolled to the study. HPV genotype will be determined by the PCR in laboratory. Pap smear will be taken and staged by the CIN. Pathological tissue will be taken under colposcopy with acetic acid test. Follow up visit will be done on 10th, 30th days of the treatment. At the end of 90th days of treatment, pap and histology test will be repeated and CIN regression or viral eradication will be evaluated.

NCT06304610
ELEVATE is a six-year project, conducted by an international research alliance led by Ghent University, aiming to develop a new test and approach for cervical cancer screening in hard-to-reach populations. In this final stage of the project, a hospital-based validation study is deployed in Belgium and Ecuador to clinically validate the new ELEVATE screening test based on self-samples and endocervical samples. The simultaneous detection of HPV DNA and the proteomic markers allows for the detection of those cervical HPV infections associated with progression towards cervical cancer. At each study site, 100 women between 30-65 years old, with a recent abnormal pap smear result will be recruited in the colposcopy waiting room. After registration and signing the informed consent form, each woman will be asked to fill out a short self-administered questionnaire for socio-demographic information. Each woman will provide a self-sample as well as an endocervical sample before the colposcopy examination. Both samples of all 200 women (i.e. participants from Belgium and Ecuador) will be tested with the new ELEVATE screening test, using 400 ELEVATE cartridges, as well as with standard tests. Besides analyzing all samples on the new ELEVATE screening test, the following standard tests will also be performed on all samples (at Ghent University - including the shipped samples of Ecuador): * AnyplexTM II HPV HR Detection (Segeene Inc., Korea): approved comparison test * ELISA protein detection: only available comparison test In order to generate HPV DNA results locally, that can be communicated to the participants in short time (versus waiting for AnyplexTM II HPV HR Detection test results after shipment to Belgium), in Ecuador the following additional standard test will be performed on the100 endocervical samples (before shipment to Belgium): • HPV DNA Mole Bioscience test Concordance between the test results of the ELEVATE screening test and standard lab tests on both type of samples will be defined, for HPV DNA as well as protein detection. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of the HPV DNA test and the protein test of the ELEVATE screening test will be defined, according to clinically relevant outcomes.
NCT06681636
A Study to evaluate if the 3 dose extended schedule (0-6-18 months) for the HPV vaccine Gardasil-9 provide similar immune responses and short term protection against HPV infection compared to the regular 3 dose schedule (0-2-6 months) in high risk women in Vietnam
NCT06665841
This study investigates the relationship between selenium levels in human tissues and the persistence of HPV (human papillomavirus) infection, particularly focusing on cervical-related lesions. The main objectives are to explore the correlation between selenium levels in different body samples (hair, nails, urine, and blood) and to evaluate selenium's potential protective effects against HPV persistence and its progression to cervical lesions. Key goals of the study include: Determining whether non-invasive monitoring (e.g., hair, nails, urine) can accurately reflect blood selenium levels. Understanding how selenium levels fluctuate in women with persistent HPV infection, and whether selenium supplementation can reduce the risk of HPV-related cervical disease progression. Exploring selenium's role in enhancing immune function, especially in older adults, to help clear HPV infection. By recruiting volunteers for selenium level testing and tracking HPV-positive women over time, this research aims to provide evidence on the effectiveness of selenium in preventing cervical cancer progression and potentially clearing HPV infections.
