NCT04480866

Brief Summary

The goal of the overall CASUS project is to develop the first fully molecular integrated cervical cancer screening approach, based on first-void urine as an easily accessible and non-invasive source of biomarkers. In contrast to current screening modalities, the CASUS approach will identify women with clinically relevant disease in need of treatment using only a single sample that can be collected at home (one-step triage).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Human DNA (GAPDH)

    Comparison of human DNA (GAPDH) concentrations \[cycle threshold values\] between first-void urine volumes (4, 10, 20 mL) and extraction methods measured by quantitative PCR (qPCR).

    Evaluation/testing when all samples are collected [1 year]

  • Internal control DNA (IC DNA)

    Comparison of internal control DNA (IC DNA) concentrations \[cycle threshold values\] between first-void urine volumes (4, 10, 20 mL) and extraction methods measured by quantitative PCR (qPCR).

    Evaluation/testing when all samples are collected [1 year]

  • Human DNA reference gene (ACTB)

    Comparison of human DNA reference gene (ACTB) concentrations \[cycle threshold values\] between first-void urine volumes (4, 10, 20 mL) and extraction methods measured by quantitative methylation specific PCR (qMSP).

    Evaluation/testing when all samples are collected [1 year]

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Human DNA (Beta-globin)

    Evaluation/testing when all samples are collected [1 year]

  • HPV DNA (HPV16, HPV18, other high-risk HPV (HPV31, -33, -35, -39, -45, -51, -52, -56, -58, -59, -66, -67, and -68))

    Evaluation/testing when all samples are collected [1 year]

Study Arms (1)

First-void urine collection

OTHER

Women self-collect three first-void urine samples (random order) at home.

Device: Colli-Pee® (FV5000 and Small Volumes)

Interventions

Colli-Pee® device (Novosanis, Belgium) attached to collector tubes prefilled with a non-toxic nucleic acid preservative (including an internal process control). The collector tubes differ in size to collect a total sample volume of 4, 10, and 20 mL. Each participant will collect three urine samples using the Colli-Pee Small Volumes 4 and 10 mL, and the Colli-Pee FV5000 (20 mL) device, in a random order.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Female
  • years and older
  • Women with a high-risk HPV positive test result within six months prior to study enrolment.
  • Giving informed consent to the research team to contact his/her general practitioner and/or gynaecologist to access details of the participants HPV test results and cervical screening history.
  • Able to understand the information brochure/what the study is about.

You may not qualify if:

  • Women that underwent hysterectomy or were treated for cervical (pre)cancer lesions within the previous six months prior to study enrolment.
  • Participating in another interventional clinical study (where e.g. a medical device, drug, or vaccine is evaluated) at the same time of participating in this study. Participation in another observational or low-interventional clinical study at the same time is allowed.
