HPV self-collection for cervical cancer screening
Part of Cancer, Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way for women to screen for cervical cancer by collecting their own sample for HPV testing at home or in a clinic. It aims to make screening easier for those who are overdue and may be anxious about a pelvic exam.
