Human Papillomavirus in Cervical Cancer and Pre-cancer in Switzerland: The CIN3+Plus Study
Cervical CancerThis study will investigate the types of HPV in samples from women with cervical pre-cancer and cancer and gather information to help investigate the impact of HPV vaccination in Switzerland.
Development of Immunological Assays for the Evaluation of Tumor Antigen Specific Immunity
Ovarian Serous AdenocarcinomaUndifferentiated Carcinoma of Ovary5 moreThis study is a clinical study aiming at establishing immunological assays for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of WT-1, Survivin and HPV16 E7-specific immune responses in cancer patients. Such a study will allow the development of suitable immunological tools to be used in assessing response in a subsequent phase I study aiming at evaluating therapeutic vaccine candidates targeting WT-1, Survivin and/or HPV16 E7-expressing tumors. In addition, this study will help defining the baseline cancer-associated immune responses in the selected patient population. Cervical and ovarian cancer patients, as well as leukemia patients, will be included in this study. WT-1, Survivin and HPV-specific immune responses will be monitored in these patients by ex vivo and cultured IFNg ELISpot as well as tetramer staining.
European Clinical Evaluation of the BD HPV Assay on the BD Viper LT System
Uterine Cervical NeoplasmsThe purpose of the study is to compare the results of the Becton Dickinson (BD) Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Assay on the Viper LT instrument from SurePath media diluted in HPV diluent (pre-quot and/or residual), PreservCyt media diluted in HPV diluent (pre-quot and/or residual) and a BD cervical brush in BD transport medium to reference histology results from biopsy.
Significance of Fluorescence Colposcopy With Autofluorescence Imaging for Cervical Cancer
Cervical CancerClinical Trial to access Significance of fluorescence colposcopy with autofluorescence imaging for the screening of cervical cancer
New Gentle Biopsy Method of Cervix Lesions Using Superficial Curettage/Protocol ID: CX-CUR
CINCervical CancerIt is to investigate to what extent a gentle tissue extraction of CIN lesions of the cervix will bring the same conclusion than the conventional cervix biopsy, but with less pain and morbidity, after patients were undergoing a conisation in order to treat CIN.
Standard Operating Procedures for Cervical (Pre)Cancer Biomarker Detection in First-void Urine (BM-SOP...
Cervical CancerThe aim of the study is to develop robust analytical protocols for first-void urine sample preparation and biomarker assays to analyze a panel of biomarkers in first-void urine for improved diagnosis of cervical (pre)cancer lesions.
A Mixed-Methods Approach to Understanding Factors Associated With Cervical Cancer Screening Utilization...
Cancer PreventionCervixThe goal of this study is to better understand the factors that might prevent HIV-positive women from having routine pap smear screenings. Researchers also want to learn what might make it easier or encourage women to have these screenings.
The Application of Invivo Microscopy Imaging in the Early Diagnosis of Cervical Cancer
Cervical CancerCervical PrecancerThis study intends to carry out a prospective, randomized controlled trial to research and development a new invivo microscopy based on the technology which is combined with high-definition microscopy and colposcopy,so as to diagnose cervical lesion directly and non-invasively by observing cervical tissues and cells, which makes it possible to diagnose cervical cancer without wounds.
Comparison of Cervical Pathologies in the Presence of High Risk Hpv Positivity
Human Papilloma VirusCervical NeoplasmThe only malignancy screening test among gynecological cancers is cervical cancer. Cytology examination and Hpv typing with smear are used as screening tests. Hpv positivity is detected in more than 90% of cervical cancers. However, only the Hpv 16-18 type positive patients undergo colposcopy in the routine screening program. Patients with Smear negative, Type 16-18 high-risk Hpv positivity are evaluated by quota after 1 year. the authors performed colposcopy with this study; authors aimed to compare the results of patients with type 16-18 Hpv positivity and type 16-18 high-risk Hpv positivity and to find out whether there was any difference between them. In this way, other high-risk Hpv types other than type 16-18 (31,33,35,45,51, etc.) may be exposed to premalign cervical lesions and possible cancer in a number of earlier and earlier periods by performing colposcopic examination instead of expecting to perform quota after 1 year. we aimed to remove.
CINtec PLUS Triage in HPV Primary Screening
Cervical CancerProspective study which will recruit participants when they attend for a routine cervical screening. The study will evaluate the use of CINtec PLUS for triage of human papillomavirus (HPV) positive participants in HPV primary screening.
