About this study

Official title: Minnesota Community Networks Center for Eliminating Cancer Disparities: Cervical Cancer Screening Project Part C Quantitative

This proposal has been developed through collaboration between the University of Minnesota and New American Community Services (NACS), and the research design is based on a needs assessment conducted by the community partner. The investigators will test the hypotheses that women who are offered home vaginal bio-specimen collection will have higher rate of cervical cancer screening completion than that of women referred for clinic-based Pap test. All participants will be given identical education materials on cervical cancer screening and HPV, currently in use by the Minnesota Sage Program.

Read the detailed description

The trial will pilot text a protocol for home vaginal bio-specimen collection for human papillomavirus (HPV) testing for cervical cancer screening. The main objective is to estimate the successful screening completion rate among a sample of Somali women who have not undergone cervical cancer screening for three or more years. Women will be randomized to either home vaginal bio-specimen collection or referral to undergo a clinic-based Pap test.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01575444
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Home Based Vaginal CollectionSomali women who are randomized for Home based Vaginal Collection will be given a kit to perform the vaginal sample collection for HPV analysis, with detailed written instructions.
Clinic Based Pap Test Collection30 Somali women who are randomized for Standard Clinic Pap Group will be given a list of clinics that they can attend for cervical cancer screening using pap test. Follow-up will be done on test completion with the clinic at 3 months after enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of home vaginal bio-specimen collections compared to standard clinic-based Pap test

    The main outcome will be successful completion of cervical cancer screening by 3 months after enrollment. For the Home Vaginal Biospecimen Collection Group, completion is defined as return of the HPV DNA self-sampling kit by the patient, with a sample suitable for laboratory analysis. In the Clinic Pap Test Group, completion is defined by documentation of Pap test result.

    Measured: Within 3 months after Enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer, run by University of Minnesota at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The study was stopped early (reason given: Investigator left University No results are possible). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Number of home vaginal bio-specimen collections compared to standard clinic-based Pap test (time frame: Within 3 months after Enrollment). 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 Dec 2017.
