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

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)
