NCT04472377

Brief Summary

Hygeia Touch Inc. developed a safe and comfortable vaginal self-sampling device "Hygeia Touch Self Sampling Kit for Women" to self-collect the vaginal discharge sample for high-risk Human Papillomavirus (hrHPV) detection. This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the agreement of hrHPV detections between vaginal self-sampling using "Hygeia Touch Self Sampling Kit for Women" and physician sampling, and these results will be applied for TFDA registration approval.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Agreement in the Detection of High-risk HPV Type in Physician-sampled Specimen and Self-collected Specimen.

    Rate of the "agreement". The "agreement" is defined as either (1) presence of any high-risk HPV type in physician collected specimen, and the patient sampled specimen, or (2) absence of high-risk HPV in physician collected specimen and the patient sampled specimen.

    14 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Agreement in HPV Detection Between Physician Collected Sample and Self-collected Sample

    14 days

  • Percentage of a Valid Specimen, According to the Presence of the Beta-globin Gene in Specimens

    14 days

  • Adverse Event From Self Sampling

    within one month after sample collection

Study Arms (1)

study population

EXPERIMENTAL

We enroll a total of 1,200 women, as follows, 1. 120 cases with no history or current cervical intraepithelial lesion or malignancy. 2. 180 cases with a history of abnormal Pap test including ASCUS, CIN1, or atypical glandular cell. 3. 240 cases with a history of atypical squamous cells favor HSIL, dysplasia cannot exclude HSIL, CIN2, CIN3, cervical carcinoma in situ, squamous cell carcinoma, atypical glandular cells favor neoplasm, adenocarcinoma in situ, or cervical adenocarcinoma. 4. 240 cases with current ASCUS, CIN1, or atypical glandular cell. 5. 420 cases with current abnormal Pap test as atypical squamous cells favor HSIL, dysplasia cannot exclude HSIL, CIN2, CIN3, cervical carcinoma in situ, squamous cell carcinoma, atypical glandular cells favor neoplasm, adenocarcinoma in situ, or cervical adenocarcinoma.

Device: Self sampling kit for collecting discharge from vaginal fornix

Interventions

A device to collect exfoliative cells from vaginal fornix that can self-operated with ease and comfort.
