HPV self-test to help cervical cancer screening access
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether letting people collect their own HPV test sample (a private, at-home option) makes cervical cancer screening easier for people with HIV and/or those who are often underserved. If you’ve declined a Pap test or it’s been 6+ months since your last screening, this may offer a more convenient way to check for HPV and cervical cancer risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study offers a way to screen for cervical cancer using an HPV self-test. It is designed for women who may not have had a recent Pap smear and are from certain minority groups.
This trial tests whether giving women a self-collection kit to test for HPV at home can help catch cervical cancer early. It is for people who are overdue for screening and have access to a smartphone and the internet.
This study tests different ways to screen for HPV (a virus linked to cervical cancer) in women living with HIV. The goal is to find the best, most practical screening approach to catch cervical problems early.
This study looks at whether testing for HPV (the virus that can lead to cervical cancer) using a urine sample can help with cervical cancer screening. It’s for women living with HIV, who may be at higher risk and need effective, easy screening.
This trial tests two cervical screening approaches to find early signs of HPV-related changes. It may help by improving how results are sorted into “needs follow-up” versus “routine care,” especially for women with different HPV patterns.
This trial offers a take-home HPV test kit so women living with HIV can check for cervical cancer risk without a clinic visit. It aims to make screening easier and more convenient.
