About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of the APTIMA® HPV Assay on the TIGRIS® DTS® System in Women With ASC-US Pap Test Results and in Women 30 Years of Age or Older With Negative Pap Test Results Using ThinPrep Pap Test Specimens

The purpose of this study is to provide data on the performance of the APTIMA HPV Assay using the TIGRIS System in detecting HPV types that may cause cervical cancer.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the clinical trial is to evaluate the APTIMA HPV Assay, using the TIGRIS System, in cervical cancer screening programs. This will be achieved by determining the performance of the assay for detecting high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types in women with known cervical disease status. The assay will be evaluated in sample populations of women with ASC-US Pap test results ("ASC-US results") and women 30 years of age or older ("30+ years of age") with negative (NILM) cytology results.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • APTIMA HPV AssayDevice

    The APTIMA HPV Assay is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) that qualitatively detects human papillomavirus (HPV) E6/E7 messenger RNA (mRNA) from 14 HPV types (types 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68) that are associated with cervical cancer ("high-risk types"). The assay cannot determine the specific high-risk HPV type(s) present and does not cross-react with 5 HPV types that are considered non-oncogenic (not associated with cervical cancer; types 6, 11, 42, 43, and 44).

  • FDA-Approved HPV DNA TestDevice

    A FDA-Approved HPV DNA Test is used as the comparator assay.

Study groups in NCT00973362
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Adjunct (i.e. Normal Pap)OtherThe Adjunct study will evaluate APTIMA HPV Assay clinical performance for detecting high-risk HPV types in female subjects 30+ years of age with negative (NILM) cytology results from routine Pap testing. This will be accomplished by evaluating the assay performance compared to known cervical disease status at baseline and after a 3-year follow-up period. A comparator FDA-Approved HPV DNA test is reported.
Receives: Device: APTIMA HPV Assay; Device: FDA-Approved HPV DNA Test
ASC-USOtherThe ASC-US study will evaluate the APTIMA HPV Assay clinical performance for detecting high-risk HPV types in subjects with ASC-US Pap test results from routine Pap testing and known cervical disease status (based on colposcopic biopsy results). A comparator FDA-Approved HPV DNA test is reported. There is no follow-up period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing APTIMA HPV Assay and FDA-Approved HPV DNA Test in people with Human Papillomavirus Infection, run by Gen-Probe, Incorporated at 17 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Jan 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adjunct Study Arm: Compare Assay Performance for Aptima HPV Assay to a FDA-Approved HPV Assay for Detecting CIN2+ (time frame: Baseline Evaluation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Jan 2017.
