About this study

Official title: Screening for Prevention of Cervical Cancer in HIV-positive and HIV-negative Cambodian Women Using Direct Visualization With Acetic Acid

The prevalence of cervical neoplasia in Cambodia is not known. There are no screening programs in place. The investigators plan on introducing a screening program based on WHO criteria and utilizing visualization with acetic acid. Patients who are positive will be offered same-day cryotherapy if indicated or will be referred for biopsy, LEEP and hysterectomy as indicated. The planned patient pool for this study is 1000 women, half of whom will be HIV positive (and thus have a presumed higher incidence of cervical neoplasia).

Being tested
cryotherapy, further biopsy, LEEP, surgery as indicated
Keywords
cervical neoplasia, cervical cancer', visual inspection acetic acid, cryotherapy
Medical subject headings
Uterine Cervical Neoplasms

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of cervical neoplasia in HIV positive women

    500 HIV positive women will be screened for cervical neoplasia using direct visualization with acetic acid

    Measured: up to 12 months

  2. Prevalence of cervical neoplasia in HIV negative women

    500 HIV negative women will be screened for cervical neoplasia using direct visualization with acetic acid

    Measured: up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Treatment of HIV positive women who screen as positive

    Patients who screen positive will be offered same-day cryotherapy, further diagnostic work-up, and further therapeutic options such as LEEP and hysterectomy as clinically indicated.

    Measured: up to 12 months

  2. Treatment of HIV negative women who screen as positive

    Patients who screen positive will be offered same-day cryotherapy, further diagnostic work-up, and further therapeutic options such as LEEP and hysterectomy as clinically indicated.

    Measured: up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Neoplasia and Cervical Cancer, run by Sihanouk Hospital Center of HOPE at 1 site in Cambodia.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 7 Oct 2015. 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 Cambodia. 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.

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?

Prevalence of cervical neoplasia in HIV positive women (time frame: up to 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 7 Oct 2015.
