Brief Summary

Invasive cervical cancer incidence and mortality can be dramatically reduced through early detection and treatment, but many women do not complete screening at recommended intervals. Many low-income women in Virginia remain uninsured and are at significant risk of being medically underserved and failing to complete regular cervical cancer screening. Self-collection of specimens for HPV testing is an innovative approach that may increase access to cervical cancer screening in populations that do not participate in traditional clinic-based screening. Innovative delivery models are needed to reach at-risk populations. This study seeks to explore the acceptability and feasibility of pairing self-collection of HPV samples for DNA testing with mobile mammography in women living in rural Virginia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Acceptability of Self-Collection Paired With Mobile Mammography

    Assess the cultural acceptability of self-collection for HPV testing among under-screened women in Southwest Virginia specifically who were seeking a mammogram at an episodic clinic. The outcome measure of ACCEPTABILITY was measured through: participants who opted in, or uptake of HPV self collection (yes/no); and intention to follow up upon learning of result.

    1 month (to allow for time to process samples and communicate results)

  • Feasibility of Self-Collection for HPV Paired With Mobile Mammography

    Assess the feasibility of self-collection for HPV testing among under-screened women in Southwest Virginia who were seeking a mammogram at an episodic clinic. FEASIBILITY was measured through: participant uptake of HPV self collection (yes/no); observations of clinic flow (i.e. how did this additional screening fit in with existing mammography services); and quality of samples collected (were any collected inaccurately or in a way that was impossible to detect).

    1 month (to allow for time to process samples and communicate results)

Study Arms (1)

HPV self collection

OTHER

Pairing self-collection of HPV samples for DNA testing with women seeking mobile mammography.

Device: HPV self collection

Interventions

The proposed community based participatory study aims to determine whether offering self-collection for HPV testing through the mobile mammography unit is an acceptable and feasible method to increase access to cervical cancer screening for under-screened women in Southwest Virginia.
