NCT ID NCT04072913

First seen Jun 20, 2026 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026

Summary

This completed study looked at 216 women to see how certain enzymes (matrix metalloproteinases) and their inhibitors relate to the severity of cervical lesions caused by HPV. Researchers compared tissue and cell samples from women with normal cervices, dysplasia, or cervical cancer. The goal was to better understand the biological changes that occur as the disease progresses, which could inform future research.
