One or two probes for cervical heat treatment in women with HIV
Part of Cancer, Immune system & allergy, Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares using one versus two probes during a heat treatment (thermal ablation) for early cervical changes in women living with HIV. The goal is to see which approach is more feasible and effective, hopefully preventing cervical cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether using one or two heat probes works better to remove cervical precancer in women with HIV. Participants will get treatment at a clinic in Rwanda and be checked again after 6 months.
This trial tests a new way to quickly diagnose and treat cervical pre-cancer using a point-of-care device. It may help women who are HPV-positive avoid a separate treatment visit.
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 help women living with HIV get screened for cervical cancer: one uses only clinic visits, the other adds community outreach and self-testing for HPV at home. It aims to increase screening rates and catch early signs of cervical cancer.
