Brief Summary

Despite declining mortality in high-income countries, cervical cancer continues to be a public health problem in low and middle -income countries. HPV tests have shown a better sensibility and a higher capacity of reducing mortality than cytology based-screening. Greater participation has been demonstrated with the use of HPV self-testing when it is offered to women with a poor screening history; however, it is not clear whether getting tested necessarily translates into a greater adherence to the entire clinical protocol, including diagnosis and treatment of precancerous lesions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the self-testing techniques on the participation and adherence of women to cervical cancer screening.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Participation

    Number of women that undergo the screening test / total number of women invited.

    1 year

  • Adherence

    Number of women that undergo the screening test + women who completed the diagnosis and treatment process / total number of women invited + total number of women with a positive screening in follow-up protocols.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Quality of HPV samples

    1 year

  • CIN2 + rate in the study population

    1 year

  • CIN2 + rate in population with positive screening

    1 year

Study Arms (3)

CERVICAL HPV

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Routine screening procedure based on HPV tests with cervical sampling by a health personnel

Diagnostic Test: CERVICAL HPV

SELF SAMPLING HPV ARM 2

EXPERIMENTAL

Screening based on HPV self-testing and colposcopic evaluation

Diagnostic Test: SELF SAMPLING HPV

SELF SAMPLING HPV ARM 3

EXPERIMENTAL

Arm 3: screening based only on HPV self-testing

Diagnostic Test: SELF SAMPLING HPV

Interventions

CERVICAL HPVDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A screening test with an HPV test is performed by a health professional plus cytology taking, if it reports positive, colposcopy and biopsy are taken, those with a CIN2 + report are directed to receive treatment.

CERVICAL HPV
SELF SAMPLING HPVDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A screening test is performed with an HPV test by self-testing, if it reports positive, women will receive ablative treatment according to eligibility criteria. If they do not meet the criteria for ablation, they will be referred for excisional treatment.

Model Details: A randomized clinical trial with three arms will be performed: One group with the routine screening procedure based on HPV tests with cervical sampling by a health personnel ( 3 visits: sampling, colpo/biopsy, treatment of CIN2 +), a second group with a screening based on HPV self-testing and colposcopic evaluation (2 visits: colpo/biopsy, treatment of CIN2 + ); and a third group with a screening based only on HPV self-testing (1 visit: HPV + treatment according to eligibility).
