About this study

Official title: Screening for Human Papillomavirus and Cervical Cancer in Young Women With Perinatally Acquired HIV

This is a cross-sectional, observational study of high-risk HPV status, cervical cytology and HPV vaccine uptake and response in young women with perinatally acquired HIV.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational study of cervical cytology assessment, high risk human papilloma virus (hr-HPV) status, and HPV antibody titres amongst adult women living with perinatally acquired HIV infection (PaHIV). Eligible consenting participants will have two samples taken; firstly, a cervical sample tested for cytology and Hr-HPV with the Cepheid GeneXpert HPV; secondly serum will be assessed for hr-HPV serology. All women with PaHIV, vaccinated and unvaccinated for HPV, over the age of 18 years will be eligible and will be recruited into one of two cohorts: (1) sexually active women: full study, cervical and blood sampling or (2) non-sexually active women, blood sampling only (total n=80). Follow up for abnormal smear results or hr-HPV positivity will be arranged through colposcopy.

What participants receive

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

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cohort 1: Women with HIV sexually activeWomen with perinatally acquired HIV aged 18 or over who are sexually active
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Human papillomavirus testing; Diagnostic Test: Cervical cytology; Diagnostic Test: HPV serology
Cohort 2: Women with HIV not sexually activeWomen with perinatally acquired HIV aged 18 or over who are not sexually active
Receives: Diagnostic Test: HPV serology

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of Abnormal Cervical Cytology

    Cervical sample taken in the clinic setting and sent to the laboratory for cytological examination. Prevalence of abnormal cytology is reported as the number of samples that had a non-normal cytology result (e.g. dyskaryotic cells) out of the total number tested

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Prevalence of High Risk HPV by Subtype

    Cervical sample taken in the clinic setting and tested for high-risk HPV on site using the Cepheid GeneXpert. Prevalence reported as the number of samples that were positive for any high-risk HPV out of all those tested

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Prevalence of CIN2+

    Participants with abnormal cytology and/or tested positive for high-risk HPV were referred for colposcopy. Prevalence reported as the number of participants who were diagnosed with CIN2+

    Measured: 1 year

  3. HPV Serology (16/18)

    Number of participants testing positive for HPV 16 and 18 antibodies out of the those tested

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV Infections and Human Papillomavirus Infection, run by Imperial College London at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 10 Dec 2024. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Dec 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Abnormal Cervical Cytology (time frame: 1 year). 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 10 Dec 2024.
