What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)3 or worse during the whole period

    Measured: 6 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The incidence of CIN3 or worse at baseline, and two years, four years, and six years post baseline

    Measured: 2 years, 4 years, 6 years

  2. The incidence of CIN2 or worse at baseline, and two years, four years, and six years post baseline

    Measured: 2 years, 4 years, 6 years

  3. The incidence of CIN1 or worse at baseline, and two years, four years, and six years post baseline

    Measured: 2 years, 4 years, 6 years

  4. The incidence of invasive cancer at baseline, and two years, four years, and six years post baseline

    Measured: 2 years, 4 years, 6 years

  5. The number of cervical cytology performance

    Measured: 6 years

  6. The number of colposcopy and biopsy performance

    Measured: 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing LBC and LBC plus HPV DNA testing in people with Cervical Cancer, run by Translational Research Center for Medical Innovation, Kobe, Hyogo, Japan at 1 site in Japan.

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 8 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 26 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)3 or worse during the whole period (time frame: 6 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01895517, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Jun 2023.
