NCT02338141

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of portable colposcopy when compared to conventional colposcopy (25x magnification of the cervix, the gold standard) and Visualization Inspection with Acetic acid (VIA, with 1x magnification, the accepted low-resource method). Half the participants will be evaluated for cervical pathology by portable colposcopy after VIA assessment, while the other half will be evaluated by conventional colposcopy. This study also will use collected lab specimens for human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive women to determine those HPV genotypes most prevalent among higher grade disease cases (CIN II+) and among the sub-group of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive women.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of accurate high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) diagnoses by visualization method

    The number of correct diagnoses of HSIL by eventual pathologic diagnosis will be compared between 8x magnification (Cerviscope), 25x magnification (Wallach Zoomscope, the standard for visualization in developed nations) and 1x magnification (visual inspection with acetic acid, the standard for visualization in low-resource settings).

    Point-of-care (at time of examination, approximately one hour)

  • Detection rates of vascular patterns of high-grade cervical lesions in human papillomavirus positive women by visualization method

    Vascular patterns differ in cervical lesions versus the normal cervix, with cervical lesion patterns often visible under magnification after the application of acetic acid. Rates of detection of these abnormal vascular patterns will be compared between 8x magnification (Cerviscope) and 25x magnification (Wallach Zoomscope, the standard for visualization in developed nations) and between both and 1x magnification (visual inspection with acetic acid, the standard for visualization in low-resource settings).

    Point-of-care (at time of examination, approximately one hour)

  • Rate of concordance between vascular patterns indicative of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and biopsy by visualization method

    Vascular patterns differ in cervical lesions versus the normal cervix, with cervical lesion patterns often visible under magnification after the application of acetic acid. Concordance between these visualized vascular patterns and eventual pathologic diagnosis from biopsy will be compared between 8x magnification (Cerviscope), 25x magnification (Wallach Zoomscope, the standard for visualization in developed nations) and 1x magnification (visual inspection with acetic acid, the standard for visualization in low-resource settings).

    Point-of-care (at time of examination, approximately one hour)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes by cervical lesion severity

    Point-of-care (at time of examination, approximately one hour)

  • Prevalence of HPV genotypes by HIV status

    Point-of-care (at time of examination, approximately one hour)

Study Arms (2)

Portable colposcopy

EXPERIMENTAL

Diagnostic evaluation with 8x magnification portable colposcopy after visual inspection with acetic acid

Device: Portable colposcopy (Cerviscope)

Conventional colposcopy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Diagnostic evaluation with standard 25x magnification conventional colposcopy after visual inspection with acetic acid

Device: Conventional colposcopy (Wallach Zoomscope)

Interventions

HPV-positive women will be evaluated with portable colposcopy (with a novel portable colposcope known as the Cerviscope) after visual inspection with acetic acid and prior to biopsy in the experimental group.

Also known as: Cerviscope
Portable colposcopy

HPV-positive women will be evaluated with conventional colposcopy (with the Wallach Zoomscope) after visual inspection with acetic acid and prior to biopsy per usual standard of care.

Conventional colposcopy
