Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Summary

This trial tests whether a vaginal self-sampling device can accurately detect high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) compared to samples collected by a clinician. About 1,000 women aged 30-64, either regular screening attendees or those who haven't been screened in 3+ years, will provide both self-collected and clinician-collected samples. The goal is to see if self-sampling could be a reliable option to increase participation in cervical cancer screening programs.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Abbott Multi-Collect Specimen Collection Swab (a vaginal self-sampling device)
What this could lead to
If self-sampling proves accurate, it could make cervical cancer screening easier and more accessible, potentially increasing participation and early detection.
What could go wrong
The trial is a validation study, so it may show that self-collected samples are less accurate than clinician-collected ones. Also, results may not apply to all populations or screening settings.
