Comparing advanced endoscopy with colposcopy for cervical and vaginal lesions
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two methods for finding abnormal cells in the cervix or vagina: a special type of endoscopy with high-definition imaging and the standard colposcopy. If you need a colposcopy because of certain HPV or Pap test results, this trial may help determine if the newer method is as good or better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have been scheduled for a colposcopy because of specific HPV or Pap test results (e.g., HPV 16/18 positive, or other high-risk HPV with an abnormal Pap test, or persistent HPV).
- You are not pregnant and not breastfeeding.
- You do not have a current acute reproductive tract infection or severe bleeding disorder.
- You have not had radiation therapy for cancer and do not have a severe mental illness.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial uses a special magnifying tool (colposcopy) to check the cervix when it looks unhealthy or your Pap smear shows abnormal cells. It helps doctors find problems early.
This trial compares two treatments—LLETZ versus LEEP—for high-grade abnormal cells on the cervix. It may help decide which procedure works best and is safest for clearing these abnormal areas.
This study tests a new questionnaire that may help doctors better identify which women need treatment for cervical changes. It is for women who have had an abnormal Pap smear or a positive HPV test and are going for a colposcopy (a closer look at the cervix).
This trial compares a liquid-based cytology test with a molecular screening test to find early changes in the cervix that could lead to cancer. It may help you understand which test is better at detecting these changes before they become serious.
This study checks whether an advanced cervical scanning test (LuViva) can better identify people who may have serious precancer or early cancer of the cervix. You may be asked to have the scan around the time you are already scheduled for a colposcopy because your screening results were concerning.
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.
