Active clinical trials for "Papillomavirus Infections"

Comparison of the detection of human papillomavirus DNA in paired physician-obtained cervical swabs and self-sampled cervicovaginal swabs and evaluation of HPV prevalence in Czech women screening population.

This is a study to determine if HC2 HPV testing in the anal canal can detect high-risk HPV and whether this aids in identifying individuals are risk for anal cancer or precancerous lesions.

The project aims to increase HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening through a web-based mobile health education program called, Wheel of Wellness (WoW) and a brief negotiated interview (BNI). The in-person BNI and WoW system will provide educational resources for participants and their families to learn more about HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening.

This randomised clinical trial aims to determine whether an immunization schedule comprising two doses of Gardasil administered six months apart is non-inferior to a schedule comprising three doses administered at 0, 6 and 60 months for the prevention of HPV-16 and HPV-18 infections that persist for at least six months, up to ten years after the initial vaccination. The study hypothesis is that the two-dose schedule would offer similar protection as that of a three-dose schedule against persistent HPV-16/18 infections.

Vaccine-preventable diseases such as hepatitis A and meningitis, as well as cancers caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) disproportionately impact young Black men who have sex with men (YBMSM). Traditional techniques of vaccination promotion have been unable to address the racial disparities in vaccination rates. One promising method for influencing behavior change within YBMSM networks is diffusion of information through Popular Opinion Leaders (POLs). The POL model engages persons who are leaders within their own networks/communities to promote behavior change. The objective of this project is to develop and pilot test a POL intervention to increase routine HAV, HPV and meningococcal conjugate vaccination among YBMSM, ages 18-26. research (PAR) framework to facilitate community support and ensure intervention strategies are salient. PAR includes community members as equal collaborators in the research process. Outcomes from these aims are expected to have an impact on health outcomes by identifying effective strategies for increasing vaccination and routine healthcare engagement among YBMSM.

HPV vaccination coverage is at lower levels than the national goal. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of quality improvement strategies for increasing HPV vaccination coverage among adolescent within the context of large integrated health care delivery systems.

This study explores the human papillomavirus (HPV) self-collection experience among individuals with a history of sexual trauma. Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide and is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women ages 29-39. Despite programs to improve accessibility of cervical cancer screening and overall high screening rates, disparities in routine surveillance have been demonstrated in certain populations, such as victims of intimate partner violence and sexual trauma. One barrier to participating in cervical cancer screening for this population is the office-based visit which necessitates the individual to undress, sit with their legs in stirrups, and undergo speculum examination for specimen collection. This type of visit may cause distress for participants who have experienced sexual violence. HPV self-collection has been studied with favorable outcomes in effectiveness and ease of use. This study evaluates the experience of HPV self-collection among individuals who have experienced sexual trauma.

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the most common of sexually transmitted viral agents and they are associated with genital and oral diseases. Agreement between cervical and oral HPV infection has been described from a small group of patient. Our study, performed on a greater number of patients, will provide a good estimation of this link, between cervical and oral infection, in a French population of women with a primary cervical HPV infection.

Observational clinical study, national, multicentric, prospective, non-comparative, with medical device, under application consistent with CE marking, for the evaluation of Papilocare® effectivness in the normalization of cervix cytological abnormalities caused by HPV.

This study compares the health and economic impact of the bivalent HPV vaccine (HPV-1) and the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (HPV-2).
