Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: There are 30 multi-center units in the country, and each center competes to enter the group. The accuracy of OITS early data was 75%, the sensitivity was 82%, and the specificity was 63%. According to 20% shedding, possible causes of shedding: error caused by severe inflammatory patients, error caused by improper operation or subjects unwilling to cooperate with follow-up. The optimal efficacy test was performed with the rate of 0.75 in the experimental group and 0.5 in the control group, and the optimal efficacy threshold was 0.1(control-experimental group), bilateral alpha was 0.05, beta was 0.2, and the sample size ratio of the two groups was 1(experimental group: Control group), each single center needs to collect 58 cases in the experimental group and 58 cases in the control group. Considering 20% shedding, the sample size of each single center is at least 70 cases in the experimental group and 70 cases in the control group, and a total of 4200 cases of all centers.

Who may be able to join

  • Women between the ages of 18 and 65 who have already had sex life

  • History of cervical treatment (coning, ablation, or photodynamic therapy)
  • There are definite immunosuppression conditions, such as HIV infection or organ transplantation
  • Patients with severe bleeding diseases such as coagulation abnormalities or photosensitive diseases (such as porphyria, lupus erythematosus, etc.)

  • The patient is in pregnancy or puerperium
  • The other conditions of this study were not considered appropriate by the researchers

About this study

Official title: Study on Novel Strategies for Cervical Cancer Screening Using Photoelectric Detection Combined with Epigenetic Procotol

A national multicenter, open randomized controlled study was conducted. It is planned to invite 30 multi-center units across the country to compete for enrollment, and each multi-center will enroll 140 patients meeting colposcopic indications (70 in the conventional group and 70 in the experimental group), totaling 4200 patients. Enrolled subjects were randomly divided into two groups. Methylation test + colposcopic biopsy was performed in the conventional group, and clinical follow-up was performed according to the methylation results; in the experimental group, methylation test + colposcopic biopsy +OITS was performed, and clinical follow-up was performed according to the methylation results and OITS results. To verify the effectiveness of methylation tests and OITS in screening for CIN2+, whether they can reduce missed diagnosis of CIN2+, whether they can flag excessive colposcopic procedures, and the value of clinical follow-up for cervical lesions.

Receives: Diagnostic Test: photoelectric detection

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity and specificity of a photoelectric image detector for cervical lesions

    Sensitivity and specificity of the photoelectric detection technique relative to histopathological findings.

    Measured: Enrolled subjects receive histopathological results approximately 7 days after colposcopy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Detection rate of CIN2+ by photoelectric cervical lesion image detector

    The sensitivity, specificity, CIN2+ detection rate, negative predictive value and positive predictive value were compared with the results of Methylaiton, colpscopy, HPV detection and cytology.

    Measured: Enrolled subjects receive histopathological results approximately 7 days after colposcopy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer and Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

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 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Sensitivity and specificity of a photoelectric image detector for cervical lesions (time frame: Enrolled subjects receive histopathological results approximately 7 days after colposcopy). 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 Mar 2025.
