About this study

Official title: Qualitative Study of HPV Self-Collection Experience and Cervical Cancer Screening in Patients With a History of Sexual Trauma

This study explores the human papillomavirus (HPV) self-collection experience among individuals with a history of sexual trauma. Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide and is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women ages 29-39. Despite programs to improve accessibility of cervical cancer screening and overall high screening rates, disparities in routine surveillance have been demonstrated in certain populations, such as victims of intimate partner violence and sexual trauma. One barrier to participating in cervical cancer screening for this population is the office-based visit which necessitates the individual to undress, sit with their legs in stirrups, and undergo speculum examination for specimen collection. This type of visit may cause distress for participants who have experienced sexual violence. HPV self-collection has been studied with favorable outcomes in effectiveness and ease of use. This study evaluates the experience of HPV self-collection among individuals who have experienced sexual trauma.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To explore the HPV self-collection experience among individuals with a history of sexual trauma.

OUTLINE:

Participants complete a survey, use an HPV self-collection kit, and attend an interview over 30 minutes.

Being tested
HPV Self-Collection, Interview, Survey Administration
Medical subject headings
Uterine Cervical Neoplasms, Papillomavirus Infections

What is being measured

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

  1. Experience of cervical cancer screening in patients with a history of sexual trauma

    Data analysis of interview transcripts will occur concurrent with data collection. The transcripts will be analyzed using Taguette, a qualitative software program. The coding scheme to analyze interview transcripts will be developed through an iterative and reflective process using grounded theory. A comparative, iterative, and interactive method, grounded theory follows a cyclical research process of collecting, analyzing and coding data, memo-writing and theoretical sampling to the point of saturation, where no new ideas, theories or constructs emerge. The research team will thoroughly explore the data and develop a comprehensive list of categories. The categories will be used to identify themes and make connections both between and across interview subjects. Thematic analysis will be basis of the study's findings.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Carcinoma and Human Papillomavirus Infection, run by OHSU Knight Cancer Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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 27 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 United States. 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?

Experience of cervical cancer screening in patients with a history of sexual trauma (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 27 Jun 2023.
