Home HPV self-testing for cervical cancer screening
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at different ways for people to collect their own samples for cervical cancer screening (HPV testing) at home or wherever they are. It aims to make screening easier and more accessible for people who are unhoused or in unstable housing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman or transgender man and still have a cervix.
- You are between 30 and 64 years old.
- You are due for cervical cancer screening (no Pap test in 3 years, or no HPV test in 5 years).
- You are unhoused or living in unstable housing.
- You do not have a history of cervical cancer, are not HIV positive, have not had a total hysterectomy, and are not currently pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests if women can collect their own samples at home to screen for cervical cancer, which could make screening easier and more comfortable. You would provide a sample and compare it to a standard doctor-collected sample.
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.
This trial tests whether offering a self-collection kit for HPV testing can help people who are overdue for cervical cancer screening. If you have a cervix and haven't had a Pap test in 3.5 years (or an HPV test in 5.5 years), you may be able to take the test at home instead of in a clinic.
This trial tests a new way to screen for cervical cancer using a self-collected sample at home. It aims to find high-risk HPV types early to prevent cancer.
This study tests if a self-collected sample for HPV testing works as well as standard colposcopy to prevent cervical cancer. If you've recently had an abnormal cervical cancer screening and need a colposcopy, this trial may be an option for you.
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.
