简要总结
Cervical cancer remains a public health burden, particularly in developing countries such as sub-saharan Africa where the infrastructure for organized screening programs does not exist. As a result, other screening modalities (visual inspection with acetic acid) are the standard of care in such regions. It is now known, persistent infection with an oncogenic Human papillomavirus (HPV) type is a necessary precursor of cervical cancer and evidence is showing HPV testing is a potential, safe and effective alternative to cytology testing (The Pap smear). This study is evaluating the feasibility and acceptance of HPV self-collection vs. VIA in a cohort of women from Kisenyi, Uganda.

研究组 & 干预措施
HPV Self-collection
Subjects will self-collect a cervical-vaginal sample. One time use.
干预措施: HPV self-colleciton (Procedure)
VIA arm
Standard of care in Uganda is visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA). Women randomized to this arm will undergo the following: Cervix examined by clinician using speculum and light source. Cervix then sprayed with 3-5% acetic acid, and then lesions described one minute after application of acetic acid. VIA negative no acetowhite lesions detected; positive is when dense aceto-white lesions are seen touching squamocolumnar junction

结局指标
主要结局
Histologically confirmed cervical intra-epithelial lesions grade 2 (CIN2) or greater in self-collected HPV arm and VIA arm at 12 months by colposcopy
时间窗: At the 12 month follow-up visit
Presence of low grade (CIN1) or moderate to high grade lesions (CIN2 or greater) will be compared between the two groups using chi-square testing at month 12.
次要结局
- Prevalence rates of high-risk HPV in the self-collection arm.(One year)
- Uptake of HPV self-collection compared to VIA in women in Kampala, Uganda(One Year)
- Evaluation of adverse events or complications documented at time of sample collection, 4-6 weeks after cryotherapy and at 12 and 36 months by study questionnaire(36 months)
- Assess screen positive rates by nurse-midwife exam in VIA arm(One year)
