At-home cervical cancer screening study
This study tests if women can collect their own samples at home to screen for cervical cancer, which could make screening easier and more comfortable. You would provide a sample and compare it to a standard doctor-collected sample.

This trial lets you collect your own cervical sample in the emergency department to check for cancer-causing HPV. It aims to make screening easier for people who might not get tested otherwise.
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.
This trial tests a new way to screen for cervical cancer using a self-collected sample at home. It aims to find high-risk HPV types early to prevent cancer.
This study is testing a new way to screen for cervical cancer using a sample you collect yourself. It aims to find a simpler, more accurate method that could replace more invasive tests.
