About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study for a Non-Inferiority Trial of Clinician-Collected Versus Patient-Collected Cervical Papanicolaou Smears

The purpose of this study is to see if it is possible to conduct a full study to determine whether the SoloPap™ cervical cell sample collection kit is as good as a clinician performed Pap test in detecting precancerous cervical lesions in females.

Begin to determine patient attitudes regarding ease of use and discomfort using SoloPap.

Read the detailed description

The SoloPap "kit" provides to subjects who would not otherwise have a Pap smear done a convenient and private way to collect samples and ship them to a laboratory for processing. The current study is pilot/pre-cursor study for a larger subsequent study that aims to determine whether SoloPap is truly noninferior to clinician-collected Pap smears in detecting cervical pathology. It will also determine user preference and willingness to perform a self- test.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Concordance of Pap Test Results Between Self- and Physician-collected Pap Tests

    whether the SoloPap™ cervical cell sample collection kit used by the subject (patient) is as good as a clinician performed Pap test in detecting precancerous cervical lesions in females.

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient Opinions

    Results from a survey about simple subject attitudes regarding the SoloPap.

    Patient Solo Pap Kit Questions

    1. Did you experience any discomfort while using the Solo Pap Kit? Yes / No
    2. Would you use the Solo Pap Kit for future Pap Tests? Yes / No
    3. Would you recommend the Solo Pap Kit to a friend or family member? Yes / No

    Measured: Directly after interventions (Solo Pap and physician-collected pap smear samples)

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?

Concordance of Pap Test Results Between Self- and Physician-collected Pap Tests (time frame: 1 hour). 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 12 Mar 2024.
