Dysplasia of cervix

This study tests whether a self-applied cream (5-fluorouracil) after a heat procedure (thermal ablation) can clear HPV better than a placebo cream in 140 women with HIV in Kenya. Participants will use the cream every two weeks for 24 weeks and be followed for 48 weeks total. The …

This study tests a new approach for treating high-grade cervical precancer (HSIL) using a cream called HAL that is activated by a special light, instead of standard surgery. About 230 women will be randomly assigned to receive either the light therapy or surgery. The main goal is…

This study compares two ways to spot early warning signs of cervical cancer: a simple vinegar test (VIA) and a magnified exam (colposcopy). Researchers will check how well each method finds pre-cancerous changes in women aged 25 to 65 who have symptoms or abnormal Pap smears. The…

This study aims to develop a blood test that can accurately detect serious cervical lesions in women infected with HPV16 or HPV18, the high-risk types linked to cervical cancer. Researchers will collect blood samples and medical data from about 1,465 women across three hospitals …

The PRIORITY study is testing a new approach to diagnose cervical cancer earlier by combining self-sampling at home with digital colposcopy and telemedicine. Researchers will enroll 700 women aged 30 to 65 to see if this method is more accurate and faster than current care. The g…

This study will test if using two heat probes instead of one can better prevent cervical cancer in 300 women with HIV in Zimbabwe. The standard single-probe treatment often fails in these women. The goal is to see if the two-probe method is safe, acceptable, and more effective at…

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…

This study will test whether using two heat probes instead of one to treat cervical precancer works better for women living with HIV. Researchers in Rwanda will enroll 300 women to see if the two-probe approach is safe, acceptable, and more effective at clearing HPV. The goal is …

This study tests whether using two heat probes instead of one can better prevent cervical cancer in women living with HIV, who face a much higher risk. Researchers will enroll 300 women in Kenya to see if the two-probe method is safe, acceptable, and more effective at clearing HP…

This study continues a community project in rural Kenya to prevent cervical cancer. It offers the 9-valent HPV vaccine to 2000 adolescent girls and tests self-collected swabs for high-risk HPV in adult women. Researchers will also study why some families do not participate and wh…

This study looks at how to make cervical cancer screening easier for women with HIV, who are at higher risk for this cancer. Researchers will talk to patients and doctors to find out what gets in the way of screening and follow-up care. They will also explore using HPV self-testi…

This study looks at better ways to screen for HPV and prevent cervical cancer in women living with HIV. Researchers will test a new method that identifies specific HPV types and viral load. The goal is to see if this approach is practical for a larger future study. About 750 wome…

This study uses a special 3D ultrasound to look at blood flow inside cervical and ovarian tumors. Researchers want to see if blood flow patterns can help tell the difference between cancer and pre-cancer, and if they can predict how well patients will do over time. About 100 adul…
