Improving cervical sample collection during pregnancy
Part of Genetic & congenital, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study is looking for better ways to collect cervical samples during pregnancy to improve health screenings. Participants will help test a new collection method that may be more comfortable and effective.

This study collects samples from pregnant people with preeclampsia (a serious pregnancy blood-pressure condition) and from healthy pregnancy controls. Researchers will study tiny particles (“exosomes”) to see how they differ and whether these signals could help explain or improve care for preeclampsia.
This study is testing a new treatment strategy for women with preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy condition that causes high blood pressure. If you have preeclampsia or a normal pregnancy, you may be able to join to help find better treatments.
This study looks at tiny living organisms in pregnancy (and related body samples) to find better ways to screen for preeclampsia. By learning early warning signs, it may help doctors identify risk sooner during routine prenatal care.
This study builds a repository (a database of samples and health information) from pregnant people to better understand and improve how we care for placenta-related conditions. By joining, you help researchers learn more about both high-risk and typical pregnancies, which could lead to better care for future families.
This study collects pregnancy-related samples and health information to help researchers learn more about conditions like preeclampsia and prematurity. Your participation may help future studies, but it usually involves whether you can safely consent and whether the pregnancy is continuing at the time of recruitment.
This study collects placenta tissue (or tissue from an abortion) from women at the Grenoble University Hospital to better understand pregnancy problems linked to the placenta. By participating, you help researchers learn more about conditions that affect pregnant women and their babies.
