    Arms of the Study

    Arm 1

    Arm 2

    Arm Type

    Experimental

    Active Comparator

    Arm Label

    Cobas HPV DNA test

    Papanicolau test

    Arm Description

    Women will be invited to perform HPV self-testing with the Cobas HPV DNA test at home.

    Women will be invited to come to the hospital to undergo a Papanicolau test (Pap test), which will be performed by the clinician.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Number of Participants Who Performed HPV Self-testing Compared to the Number of Participants Who Responded to the Invitation to Come to the Hospital for Pap Testing
    Compare the participation rate to cervical cancer screening for home-based human papillomavirus testing based on self-sampling versus clinic-based, physician-performed Pap testing.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Proportion of Women With a Positive HPV Self-test Who Underwent All the Recommended Follow-up Clinical Investigations.
    Assess the compliance with further follow-up among women having tested positive for the presence of HPV at baseline screening.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The purpose of this study is to determine whether human-papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling can be used as a primary screening test for unscreened women.
    Detailed Description
    Women residing in the canton of Geneva, aged between 25 and 69 years, who haven't had a Pap test in the last three years, will be invited to participate. Participation to the study will be encouraged through public displays, social networks, and medical consultations. Women meeting the eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study. They will be randomized into two groups and will receive a home-sent letter, inviting them to either come in for a Pap test or to perform and send back the HPV self-sample that they'll receive at their domicile. Both groups will also receive a questionnaire, in order to better understand the reasons for their previous non-attendance to cervical cancer screening.
