HPV test before subtotal hysterectomy
Part of Cancer, Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial checks for HPV before a subtotal hysterectomy (removal of part of the womb) to find and treat early cervical changes. The goal is to prevent cervical cancer and reduce the chance of needing further surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 years.
- You are scheduled for a subtotal hysterectomy (removal of the womb but keeping the cervix).
- You agree to have a small procedure (cone biopsy) if the HPV test is positive.
- You have not had a negative HPV test in the last 3 years.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial checks how well cervical cancer responds to surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy by measuring HPV DNA and RNA in blood and cervical mucus. It aims to improve monitoring during treatment.
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 studies a blood test that looks for HPV DNA after cervical cancer surgery. The test may help doctors predict if the cancer might come back and decide if more treatment is needed.
This study focuses on HPV-based screening for women ages 23–29. It may help confirm whether HPV testing is a good way to find early signs of cervical cancer risk in this age group.
This trial aims to develop a vaccine that trains your immune system to fight HPV, the virus that causes cervical cancer. By studying your blood, researchers hope to find better ways to prevent the cancer from coming back.
This trial tests whether a vaccine against HPV can help prevent pre-cancerous lesions from coming back after you've had them. It's for people who have had high-grade pre-cancerous lesions but haven't yet been treated for them.
