About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia focused on measuring image analysis, cancer prevention, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia

Eligibility Criteria

25 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Women >25 years of age;
  • Women undergoing colposcopy due to abnormal cervical screening or follow-up for a history of dysplasia;
  • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative urine or blood pregnancy test;
  • Ability to understand and willingness to provide informed consent by signing specific Informed Consent Document.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Women under 25 years of age;
  • Women who have undergone hysterectomy with removal of the cervix;
  • Women with known allergy to proflavine or acriflavine;
  • Women who are pregnant or nursing at the time of enrollment;

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Experimental group - MMC

Arm Description

Imaging of study participants will be performed during the colposcopy examination. The mobile colposcope and the confocal imaging probe, together referred to as the Multimodal Mobile Colposcope (MMC), will be used to image and/or record videos the cervix. Cervical biopsies will be performed using biopsy forceps per standard protocols.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Develop and validate a Multimodal Mobile Colposcope (MMC)
Image data will be used as a training set to develop and refine image analysis algorithms. Multimodal Mobile Colposcope will be compared with colposcopic impression considering clinical performance (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Cervical cancer remains the first or second leading cause of cancer death among women in many low-and middle-income countries. Cervical cancer prevention programs in low-resource settings are hampered by a lack of personnel with appropriate clinical expertise, lack of pathology services, and lack of associated infrastructure. There is an urgent need for appropriate diagnostic tools to enable accurate screening and diagnosis in low-resource settings. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a low-cost Multimodal Mobile Colposcope (MMC) for global cervical cancer prevention programs. This new device will combine the imaging capabilities of a mobile colposcope with the microscopic imaging capabilities of a fiber-optic confocal imaging probe.
