Trial summary

While there is broad consensus that HR-HPV detection is the best available primary screening test, there is no agreement about the most efficient and reliable triage procedure for HR-HPV positive women. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Molecular Triage in Cervical Cancer Prevention: The Tlaxcala Study

While there is broad consensus that HR-HPV detection is the best available primary screening test, there is no agreement about the most efficient and reliable triage procedure for HR-HPV positive women. Transient HR-HPV infections are very common, and the vast majority of these infections spontaneously regress after a year or two. Only a small fraction of cases will lead to persistent infection responsible for cervical neoplasia. The FRIDA Study is a large, population-based study that was designed to evaluate the performance and cost-effectiveness of different triage strategies for hrHPV-positive women in Mexico.

Read the detailed description

The target population is over <100,000 women aged 30 to 64 years who attend the Cervical Cancer Screening Program in 100 health centers in the state of Tlaxcala, Mexico. All women will be evaluated to determine hrHPV infection using the Cobas® 4800 HPV test. Triage strategies will be performed as reflex tests in all hrHPV-positive participants: HPV-16/18/45 genotyping, detection of the E6 oncoprotein of HPV-16/18, cytology, and immunocytochemistry using p16INK4a/Ki67. Women with at least one positive triage test will be referred for colposcopy evaluation, where a minimum of four biopsies and an endocervical sample are systematically collected. Histological confirmation will be performed by a standardized panel of pathologists.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HPV screening and triage testsOther

    All cervical and/or vaginal specimens are tested for hrHPV using the Cobas® 4800 HPV test. Triage testing will be performed on all participants with a positive HR-HPV test declared consent at recruitment visit: HPV16/18 genotyping, Cobas® 4800 HPV test, HPV16/18/45 genotyping, BD OnclarityTM HPV Assay, OncoE6 Cervical Test, Liquid based cytology with Papanicolaou stain and p16INK4a/ Ki-67 immunostain.

What is being measured

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

  1. Histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+)

    All women will be colposcopically evaluated in order to rule out any clinically evident invasive cancer. In cases of invasive cancer, patients will be referred to onco-gynecology services immediately. Before biopsy collection, endocervical sampling is performed using an Endocervex Brush®. A minimum of four biopsies are collected, at least one per quadrant, from the more suspicious area on cervical transformation zone. Histological evaluation of all samples (biopsies and/or endocervical curettage samples) will be evaluated for final diagnosis and confirmation of CIN2+ cases by two pathologists according to Mexico's Cervical Cancer Screening Programme's guidelines. An external expert-pathologist, will resolve discrepancies and render a final decision.

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer and Intraepithelial Neoplasia, run by Instituto Nacional de Salud Publica, Mexico at 1 site in Mexico.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 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 Mexico. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jorge Salmerón, MD DSc (+52-7771002364, jorge.salmec@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) (time frame: 36 months). 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 NCT02510027, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 28 Jul 2015.
