Brief Summary
While there is broad consensus that HR-HPV detection is the best available primary screening test, there is no agreement about the most efficient and reliable triage procedure for HR-HPV positive women. Transient HR-HPV infections are very common, and the vast majority of these infections spontaneously regress after a year or two. Only a small fraction of cases will lead to persistent infection responsible for cervical neoplasia. The FRIDA Study is a large, population-based study that was designed to evaluate the performance and cost-effectiveness of different triage strategies for hrHPV-positive women in Mexico.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+)
All women will be colposcopically evaluated in order to rule out any clinically evident invasive cancer. In cases of invasive cancer, patients will be referred to onco-gynecology services immediately. Before biopsy collection, endocervical sampling is performed using an Endocervex Brush®. A minimum of four biopsies are collected, at least one per quadrant, from the more suspicious area on cervical transformation zone. Histological evaluation of all samples (biopsies and/or endocervical curettage samples) will be evaluated for final diagnosis and confirmation of CIN2+ cases by two pathologists according to Mexico's Cervical Cancer Screening Programme's guidelines. An external expert-pathologist, will resolve discrepancies and render a final decision.
36 months
Study Arms (1)
Women aged 30-64 years old
Women aged 30 to 64 years who attend the Cervical Cancer Screening Program in 100 health centers in the state of Tlaxcala, Mexico
Interventions
All cervical and/or vaginal specimens are tested for hrHPV using the Cobas® 4800 HPV test. Triage testing will be performed on all participants with a positive HR-HPV test declared consent at recruitment visit: HPV16/18 genotyping, Cobas® 4800 HPV test, HPV16/18/45 genotyping, BD OnclarityTM HPV Assay, OncoE6 Cervical Test, Liquid based cytology with Papanicolaou stain and p16INK4a/ Ki-67 immunostain.
Eligibility Criteria

You may qualify if:
- Women aged 30 to 64
- Residents of the municipalities included in Sanitary Jurisdiction No. 1 of Tlaxcala.
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnant or hysterectomized women
- Legally disabled women unable to give verbal informed consent required by the study protocol
- Women who do not wish to participate in the present study

Biospecimen
Two cervical samples will be collected using a Cervex-Brush® (Rovers®). The first collected sample will be placed in a vial containing BD CytoRich™ preservative (BD Diagnostics, Burlington, NC), and the second sample will be placed in a ThinPrep® vial (Hologic, Inc., Bedford, MA). Both samples will be temporarily stored at room temperature at the health center until they are delivered to the lab facilities. Women who refuse a pelvic examination will be offered the option to self-collect a vaginal sample at the health facility or at their home that can be used for hrHPV testing. Only HR-HPV positive participants will move onto the cytology/molecular triage testing phase. After triage procedures, all remaining samples collected in either of the vials from HR-HPV positive women will be stored independently for additional analysis as required by the study procedures.
