First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to make cervical cancer prevention easier for women who often miss out on routine care, such as those experiencing homelessness, substance use, or incarceration. Researchers will offer the HPV vaccine (Gardasil-9) and a self-swab test during regular sexual health clinic visits. They will track how many women accept the offer and complete the vaccine series, and gather feedback to design better services.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Gardasil-9 (HPV vaccine)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that offering HPV vaccines during routine sexual health visits is a practical way to reach and protect women who often miss standard screening and vaccination.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early feasibility study (500 participants) focused on uptake and attitudes, not on directly preventing cancer. Results may not apply to other regions or populations.
