Trial summary

The goals of this application are to assess the usefulness of biomarkers, including p16 proteins, minichromosome maintenance (MCM) proteins, high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types, and E6 and E7 mRNA/oncoproteins, as adjunct tools to anal Pap smear in identifying HGAIN and to study the impact of HIV infection on… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Centre

The goals of this application are to assess the usefulness of biomarkers, including p16 proteins, minichromosome maintenance (MCM) proteins, high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types, and E6 and E7 mRNA/oncoproteins, as adjunct tools to anal Pap smear in identifying HGAIN and to study the impact of HIV infection on the characteristics of anal cytology (by anal Pap smear) and biomarkers. To fulfill these goals, in addition to routine practice, it will be necessary to follow 450 MSM (315 HIV-positives and 135 HIV-negatives) over 60 months, and perform HRA and biomarkers on all clients at baseline and every 12 months. Information from this study would inform AIN screening and follow up approaches in HIV-positive and HIV-negative MSM in both resource-limited and resource-rich settings.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anal Intraepithelial Neoplasia, run by Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Centre.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 May 2017.
