NCT02814448

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test two innovative devices, the CryoPen® and thermocoagulator, against gas-based cryotherapy to determine whether the novel devices produce equivalent or improved destruction of cervical tissue compared to gas-based cryotherapy. Tissue destruction with single freeze versus double freeze treatments with the CryoPen and gas-based cryotherapy will also be compared.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Depth of Necrosis Achieved With the LMIC-adapted CryoPen and the Thermocoagulator Compared to Mean Depth of Necrosis Achieved With CO2-based Cryotherapy

    24-48 hours after treatment

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Pain During Treatment Reported by Patients Treated With Double and Single Freeze CO2 Cryotherapy, Double and Single Freeze CryoPen and Thermoablation
