Improving tests for abnormal cervical cells after menopause
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial is looking at better ways to diagnose changes in the cervix in women after menopause. It may help by improving how doctors decide which cervical abnormalities need attention and follow-up.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are postmenopausal (no vaginal bleeding for at least 1 year) and age 50 or older
- You are being referred for a colposcopy because of a positive HPV test and/or an abnormal Pap (cervical cytology) result
- You may qualify if you previously had abnormal cervical biopsy results and it has been at least 6 months since your last colposcopy with biopsies
- You have not used estrogen in the last 3 months (any form)
- You have not had prior radiation therapy to the cervix, and you have not had cervical removal procedures like amputation or cone biopsy
- You are not pregnant

This study tests a new technology to help find cervical cancer earlier by focusing on people who already had an abnormal screening result. It may help improve how abnormal tests are checked and diagnosed.
This study tests a new questionnaire that may help doctors better identify which women need treatment for cervical changes. It is for women who have had an abnormal Pap smear or a positive HPV test and are going for a colposcopy (a closer look at the cervix).
This study follows women who are newly diagnosed with cervical or endometrial (uterine lining) cancer at a health check-up. It helps doctors learn more about these cancers and how they behave, which may improve future care.
This trial checks how well cervical cancer responds to surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy by measuring HPV DNA and RNA in blood and cervical mucus. It aims to improve monitoring during treatment.
This study looks at how cervical cancer treatment affects sexual health and overall quality of life. If you join, you'll fill out questionnaires to help doctors understand and improve care for future patients.
This study looks at ways to improve cervical cancer screening for women. If you join, you may help researchers find better methods for early detection, which can lead to earlier treatment and better outcomes.
