NCT04585243

Brief Summary

This study seeks to compare the accuracy and acceptability of HPV testing self-sampling kit and standard clinician-sampling for HPV testing. The primary outcome of this study is the concordance between screening results on self-sampling kits compared to clinician-collected HPV test, Pap smear results, and colposcopy. Secondary endpoints will include acceptability of self-sampling and barriers to cervical cancer screening. These endpoints will be analyzed to try to circumvent barriers to the cervical cancer screening and ascertain whether self-sampling is a viable alternative.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Concordance of Screening Results of the Self-Sampling Kit Compared to Clinician-collected Samples

    The primary outcome of this study is to analyze the number of participants with concordance of screening results of the self-sampling kit compared to clinician-collected HPV test, Pap smear results, and colposcopy.

    Within two weeks of their colposcopy exam.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of Completed Self-Sampling Kits

    Within two weeks of their colposcopy exam.

  • Number of Participants Who Reported Problems Using Self-Sampling Kits

    Within two weeks of their colposcopy exam

Study Arms (1)

Self-Sampling Kit

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will be mailed a Self-Sampling kit (Evalyn Brush) to collect samples for analysis for HPV/Cervical cancer screening.

Device: Evalyn Brush

Interventions

The Evalyn Brush is a self-sampling kit that can be used to collect a sample to screen for HPV/Cervical cancer at home.

Self-Sampling Kit

Limitations and Caveats

small sample size due to slow participant accrual, exclusion of patients who do not engage in health care (group most likely to benefit from self-sampling)

Intervention Model
SINGLE GROUP
Model Details: Participants who enroll in the study will be asked to complete an HPV self-sampling kit in addition to completing their colposcopy exam. Participants will collect the sample at home before or after their exam and mail it back to the Penn State Health laboratory for analysis. The results will be compared to those of the clinician-collected (standard of care) colposcopy exam, Pap, and HPV test. Participants will also complete a follow up survey over the phone after their sample is collected.
