HPV self-test for cervical cancer screening
Part of Cancer, Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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 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.
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 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 offers a simple way for people who are unhoused or unstably housed to screen for cervical cancer using a self-collected sample for HPV testing. It aims to make screening more accessible and reduce health disparities.
