Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Final Response of Anal High-grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions (HSIL)

    Response assessed 12 weeks after treatment. Late Clinical Response (LCR): HSIL present at week 48 but none at week 60, with two independent reviews in agreement that HSIL absent at week 60. Complete response (CR): No HSIL on histology or cytology at weeks 48 or 60 (caveat: if HSIL at week 60, blinded chart notes and photographs were reviewed by two clinicians, and decision was reached by agreement or consensus whether HSIL had been missed at week 48. Cases that reviewers independently agreed had not been missed at week 48 were considered true recurrences) Partial Clinical Response (PCR): HSIL on cytology with no HSIL histology, or improvement \>50% in the number of lesions with HSIL, or an improvement \>50% in lesion size, area, or clinical characteristics (e.g. acetowhite staining, Lugol's staining, or vascular changes were improved) No Response (NR): HSIL present at weeks 48 \& 60 on histology, or improvement ≤ 50% in number, size, area or characteristics.

    Baseline, Week 48, and Week 60; up to 60 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Treatment Adherence

    Up to 48 weeks

  • Response With >50% Adherence

    Baseline, Week 48, and Week 60; up to 60 weeks

  • Response With >75% Adherence

    Baseline, Week 48, and Week 60; up to 60 weeks
