Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The proportion of responders at 6 months after first treatment

    A responder is defined as follows: * Normal histology; or * LSIL histology and clearance of baseline HPV

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • The proportion of HPV positive patients with clearance of baseline HPV at 6 months after first treatment.

    6 months

  • The proportion of HPV16 positive patients with clearance of HPV16 at 6 months after first treatment.

    6 months

  • The proportion of HPV16 and/or HPV18 positive patients with clearance of baseline HPV at 6 months after first treatment.

    6 months

  • The proportion of patients with histologic regression, defined as LSIL or normal histology, at 6 months after first treatment.

Study Arms (2)

Cevira® treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

The Cevira® treatment is an integrated combination of drug and device

Combination Product: Cevira®

Placebo ointment

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The placebo ointment contains only vehicle, and is similar in appearance and consistence as the Cevira® ointment. The placebo device is identical in appearance as the Cevira® device, but does not provide light.

Combination Product: Placebo

Interventions

Cevira®COMBINATION_PRODUCT

The device is a single-use, disposable, LED-based red light source. The device will automatically switch on the light 5 hours after administration, and provide continuous photoactivation of 125 J/cm2 over 4.6 hours before automatically shutting down.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Biopsy-confirmed HSIL histology determined by a panel of 3 pathologists from a central laboratory in each region (China, US, and Europe);
  • Adequate colposcopy including:
  • visualization of entire cervical transformation zone including the squamocolumnar junction
  • visualization of entire lesion margin
  • Colposcopically visible lesion after biopsy, before treatment (Note: To ensure a colposcopically visible lesion after biopsy, the lesion should cover approximately 15% of the uterine cervix before biopsy)
  • Average sized uterine cervix suitable for application of the Cevira® device
  • Use of adequate birth control until completion of the 6 month assessment visit
  • Age 18 or older (Note: Patients aged 18-20 should not be actively recruited)
  • Signed written informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Biopsy-confirmed HSIL (CIN3) histology with a total lesion area covering more than half of the uterine cervix area
  • Invasive cervical cancer
  • Adenocarcinoma in situ, or other glandular intraepithelial lesions
  • Lesion(s) extending to the cervical canal (as clinically indicated and whether to perform endocervical curettage \[ECC\] test at the discretion of the investigators)
  • Lesion(s) extending to the vaginal vault
  • Current severe pelvic inflammatory disease, severe cervicitis, or other severe gynecological infection as per colposcopy and clinical examination
  • Vaginal bleeding at time of treatment at the discretion of the investigator
  • Pregnancy
  • Nursing
  • Childbirth or miscarriage within six weeks of enrolment
  • Patients who previously received surgical treatment, have incomplete cervical structure and have recurrent HSIL; or patients who received other treatment after the confirmed diagnosis of HSIL
  • History of toxic shock syndrome
  • Known or suspected porphyria
  • Known allergy to hexaminolevulinate or similar compounds (e.g. methyl aminolevulinate or aminolevulinic acid)
  • Known allergy to silicone
  • +4 more criteria
