Active clinical trials for "Uterine Cervical Neoplasms"

This study will be conducted using 3+3 design and includes, a dose escalation part to define the MTDfRP2D for the combination of BGJ398 and carboplatin/paclitaxel, and a dose expansion part to treat another 12 patients (only cervix cancer) to further evaluate safety of this combination. Safety, tolerability and MTD will be determined in the dose escalation part of the study. The dose expansion will additionally investigate preliminary anti-tumor efficacy in cervical cancer. The dosing cycle is 21 days.

Our goal is to evaluate, in France, the effectiveness (in terms of participation) of the general practitioner involvement (signature) and a more personalized communication in invitation letters to organized screening of breast, colorectal and cervical cancers. The hypothesis on which this project is based is that communication is probably more effective if the "receiver" feels personally targeted by invitation letters (Dear Martin, I am writing ...) and if he knows "the issuer "(his general practitioner rather an unknown person).

The aim of this study is to assess the potential benefit of the addition of immunotherapy with VGX-3100 and INO-9012 (i.e. INO-3112) to concomitant CRT or, to concomitant CRT and continued as adjuvant in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. Safety run-in: To test the safety of CRT combined with immunotherapy with INO-3112. This safety run-in phase will include the first 3 patients treated in each of the two INO-3112 combination arms who are exposed to at least two immunotherapy doses and evaluate whether the combination does not pose undue immediate risks to the patients further enrolled in the trial. Phase II:To demonstrate sufficient activity in the experimental combination arms to warrant a further phase III conclusive trial based on progression free survival (PFS) at 18 months assessed by RECIST by the local investigator. The efficacy will be assessed within each experimental arm while the standard arm will serve as a reference arm to check the reliability of the results.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of topotecan and pazopanib can help to control recurrent cervical cancer. The safety of the study drug combination will also be studied.

This is a single arm open label phase II trial to evaluate the oral daily use of BKM 120 in patients with recurrent unresectable or metastatic cervical cancer after palliative cisplatin based regimen failure. A complete treatment cycle is defined as a 28 days period.

To evaluate the efficacy of PARP inhibitor, rucaparib as maintenance therapy for locally advanced cervical cancer

The trial will evaluate whether human papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling may increase cervical cancer screening attendance among under-screened women in Norway, how different ways of offering self-sampling and follow-up may affect attendance, and whether self-sampling may reduce inequities in attendance.

Human immunodeficiency virus-infected (HIV[+]) women have a several-fold increased risk of invasive cervical cancer (ICC) as well as increased risk of cervical pre-cancer. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), ICC is the 1st or 2nd most common cause of cancer and cancer-related death in women. Rates of ICC and ICC-related mortality are particularly high in Sub-Saharan Africa, which also has the highest rates of HIV infection in the world. Although prophylactic HPV vaccines may be the optimal cervical cancer prevention strategy, 2-3 generations of at-risk HIV[+] and HIV[-] women are already highly exposed to human papillomavirus (HPV) and would not benefit from (and will not be immunized with) HPV vaccine. Thus cervical cancer screening is needed for the foreseeable future. However, Pap testing is expensive and requires a complex clinical and lab infrastructure that does not generally exist in LMICs; strategies based on high-risk HPV (hrHPV) testing or visual inspection after acetic acid (VIA) are promising but are either too non-specific, leading to over-referral for colposcopy or over-treatment, or are too insensitive, respectively. Thus, inexpensive, easily implemented, and effective cervical cancer screening methods are greatly needed in Sub-Saharan Africa, especially for HIV[+] women. This cervical cancer screening study of 1,200 women (800 HIV[+] and 400 HIV[-] women), aged 25-59 years, living in Cameroon, utilized our existing research site. The investigators evaluated screening tests (hrHPV testing, VIA and Pap), traditional triage tests (HPV16/18/45 detection, VIA, Pap), and promising new biomarkers for triage (Ki-C67, TOP2a, CDKN2A, and HPV viral load) of screen-positive women. All screen positives underwent rigorous disease ascertainment to obtain unbiased estimates of sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive value. The goal of this study was to establish the foundation and capacity for future studies designed to reduce the burden of HPV-associated cancers in the Cameroon population. It will inform Cameroon and other countries with high HIV burdens on the best strategies for cervical cancer screening in their HIV[+] and HIV[-] women.

cervical cancer is the fourth most frequent cancer in women worldwide and in Brazil, it occupies the third position for the triennium 2020/2022, with a high mortality rate and maintained in the last 10 years. It is associated with persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Primary prevention can be accomplished through vaccines that prevent HPV infection of the epithelial cells of the cervix. Secondary prevention in screening for precursor lesions through periodic repeat cervical sampling in a population of asymptomatic women. Women with abnormal cytology are more likely to have pre-invasive or invasive lesions and are referred for further testing, colposcopy. Colposcopy identifies suspicious areas and guides the best site for biopsy. In the situation of negative colposcopy and abnormal cytology, suspicion for high-grade lesion (HSIL). It recommends further investigation of the endocervical canal before the possible excisional procedure and obtaining an additional canal sample by brushing or curettage. However, to date, there is no consensus and studies lack consistent results on which is the best method for further investigation of the endocervix. Objectives: To compare the performance of additional strategies in the investigation and detection of precursor or invasive lesions in the endocervical canal in women with abnormal cytology (ASC H+) and with initial colposcopy without suspicious images.

This study pilots a 7-session group intervention among 40 screened women, 20 of whom will be randomly assigned to take part in the intervention, and 20 to the wait-list control. Assessments will be administered at baseline and month 6 to index participants as well as up to three unscreened female social network members of each index participant (up to 120 total). The primary outcome is CC screening among participating social network members.
