New probe technique could slash cervical cancer risk in HIV-Positive women
NCT ID NCT07645378
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using two probes during a heat-based treatment (thermal ablation) works better than the usual one-probe method to prevent cervical cancer in women living with HIV. About 200 women aged 25-49 with HIV and cervical precancer will be enrolled. The goal is to see if the two-probe approach clears the HPV virus more effectively at 6 months, potentially improving cancer prevention in high-risk groups.
