Reflectance Confocal Imaging in Cervical Cancer Patients
Cervical CancerThe goal of this clinical research study is to see if reflectance confocal microscopy works as well as standard methods to detect cancer of the cervix or precancerous lesions. Primary Objectives: To identify potential clinical advantages for a noninvasive method of diagnosing dysplasia and neoplasia in the cervix using reflectance confocal microscopy. To obtain real time reflected light images in vivo of sites in the human cervix. To access the effects of acetic acid as a contrast agent for in vivo reflectance confocal imaging. Evaluate the depth of penetration for the fiber optic confocal device and analyze the diagnostic value of images taken from different depths. Determine the sensitivity and specificity of this device for the diagnosis of CIN.

Cervical Intraepithelial NeoplasiaCervical Cancer1 moreThe overall aim of the study is to assess the effect of school-based Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination by comparing type-specific HPV prevalence between vaccinated and non-vaccinated women born in 1997. Women born in 1997, residence to Norway in 2009 (the year of vaccine initiation of the 1997-cohort) are invited to participate in the study.
A Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) Study to Monitor the Safety of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals'...
Cervical Intraepithelial NeoplasiaThe purpose of this prospective, multi-centre, PMS cohort study was to monitor the safety of Cervarix, which is the first HPV vaccine licensed for use in China, to help prevent cervical cancer caused by HPV types 16 and 18. The vaccine was approved by National Drug Administration of China (CNDA), in July 2016. As per the CNDA commitment, this study collected data regarding the safety of the vaccine, related information on potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs); which are diseases that could affect the immune system, and the effect on pregnancy outcomes (POs) including birth defects in the newborn. Cervarix was approved for use in females between 9-25 years of age, for the prevention of cervical cancer, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN1), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2, grade 3 (CIN 2/3) and adenocarcinoma in situ caused by high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) types 16 and 18. In May 2018, Cervarix was also approved for use in women of age up to 45 years. The exposed set (ES) comprised 3013 subjects, who were vaccinated with Cervarix, on a voluntary basis, as per standard practice. The study collected information on any adverse event following immunisation, pIMDs, POs and congenital anomalies.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Testing to Improve Cervical Cancer Screening in the Mississippi Delta...
Cervical Intraepithelial NeoplasiaBackground: Cancer of the cervix (bottom third of the uterus, or womb) can be prevented by regular Pap tests (also called Pap smears), which check for changes in the cells of the cervix. Because many women in the United States have regular Pap smears, cervical cancer is not common in this country. However, the disease is common among women in the Mississippi Delta because of poor participation in screening programs. The major causes of cervical cancer are persistent human papillomaviruses (HPV) infection by cancer-associated HPV types and lack of screening. These viruses cause an infection that often goes away by itself, but if it does not go away, over a long time lead to cervical cancer. HPV causes cervical abnormalities, which are detected by Pap smears and then treated. Objectives: -To determine whether an at-home self-collection method for obtaining cells from the cervix can be a simple, safe and inexpensive way to screen for cervical cancer for women who don t go to the health clinic regularly. Eligibility: Women who reside in the counties of Leflore, Sunflower, Washington or Tallahatchie, Mississippi. Women between 26 and 65 years of age who are not pregnant and who have not had a hysterectomy. Design: Screening study participants undergo the following: The doctor takes a cervical sample using the same self-collection device that women will use at home to self-collect. Pelvic examination and Pap test. For this test, the woman lies on an exam table and the doctor inserts an instrument called a speculum into the vagina, opening it to see the cervix. A special brush is used to take a few cells from the cervix. The cells are placed on a glass slide and sent to a lab for examination. Cervical cell specimen collection using an at-home self-collection kit that participants will use at home after 2 weeks At-home self-collection by participant after 2 weeks. Referral to a doctor for follow-up care, if needed. Colposcopy (see below) in all women with a Pap test that is abnormal or positive for HPV and for some women with a normal smear. Colposcopy study participants undergo the following: The doctor takes a cervical sample using the same self-collection device that women will use at home to self-collect. Colposcopy, an exam in which the doctor examines the cervix using a light and looks through a magnifying device to see if there is any abnormal tissue on the cervix. During this exam, the doctor may remove a small sample of tissue to diagnose any abnormality. Participants also have a sample collected using the self-collection kit. At-home cervical sample collection by participant after 2 weeks. Notification if further medical care is required and treatment if the biopsy looks abnormal.
The Study of Folate Receptor-Mediated Staining Solution (FRD™) In Cervical Lesion Detection
Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia Grade 2/3The FRDTM is easy to perform and does not require sophisticated laboratory technology and/or experienced pathologists for test result interpretation. Compared to the Pap smear and HPV test, the FRDTM enables clinicians to obtain test results immediately (within 60 seconds) after the screening. This empowers clinicians in making timely decisions on appropriate patient management, and facilitating patient compliance with follow-up procedures. In addition, the FRDTM requires minimal training and technical support. Due to its advantage of rapid visualization of abnormal cervical lesions (CIN2+) in a cost-effective way, health care professionals can make cervical cancer detection accessible to women worldwide, especially in regions with limited medical resources. This is a cross-sectional study to evaluate the clinical performance of Folate Receptor-Mediated Epithelium Staining (FRDTM) in detecting cervical neoplastic lesions (CIN2+).
Hemostatic Procedure After Biopsy of the Cervix
Uterine Cervical DysplasiaCytological abnormalities of the Cervix uteri need to be clarified by colposcopy biopsy. To avoid bleeding after biopsy, monsel´s paste is a common used Agent. In a randomized clinical Trial the use of monsel´s paste after biopsy will be compared to no Intervention. The Primary outcome of the study is blood loss, secondary outcomes are pain, satisfaction of the patient and influence of Independent factors such as Age and Body mass index.
