Self-sampling for HPV awareness in women with HIV
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a self-collection kit for HPV, a virus that can cause cervical cancer. It aims to make screening easier for women with HIV who haven't had a Pap test recently, and to find earlier signs of risk.

This study tests at-home self-sampling kits to help prevent cervical cancer in women living with HIV in Ghana. Participation is completely voluntary, involves collecting your own sample at home, and aims to make screening easier.
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 study looks at ways to improve cervical cancer screening and follow-up for women with HIV. If you are a woman with HIV aged 25 or older, this research may help understand how to make screening easier and more available.
This study looks at how well the HPV vaccine works in women living with HIV and whether it helps make cervical cancer screening more accurate. If you are a woman with HIV between 21 and 40 years old and already part of certain other HIV studies, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two ways to screen for HPV, a virus linked to anal cancer. People living with HIV will either collect their own sample or have a doctor do it, then switch methods. The goal is to see which is more comfortable and accurate.
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.
