Summary
This trial is looking at using self-collected vaginal samples for HPV testing to improve cervical cancer prevention. HPV is a common virus that can lead to cervical cancer. Many people do not undergo regular screening for
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who need a colposcopy or cervical excisional procedure and are interested in self-collecting vaginal samples for HPV testing to prevent cervical cancer. It's part of an initiative to make screening more accessible, especially for those who avoid traditional pelvic exams.
What is being tested?
The SHIP Trial evaluates the clinical accuracy of HPV testing on self-collected vaginal samples versus clinician-collected cervical samples. The goal is to inform FDA regulatory reviews of self-collection methods as alternatives for cervical cancer screening.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves non-invasive sample collection and standard diagnostic procedures like biopsies, side effects may include discomfort or minor bleeding from the biopsy site, but no significant side effects are expected from the self-collection process.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Prevention (self-collected and clinician-collected samples)Experimental Treatment10 Interventions
Patients undergo self-collection of a vaginal sample and then undergo clinician-collection of a cervical test sample. Patients then undergo standard of care colposcopy with or without biopsy/endocervical curettage and/or cervical excisional procedures as clinically indicated.
