Trial summary

When a woman has an abnormal pap smear or tests positive for a high risk strain of the HPV virus, the current standard of care includes culposcopic examination of the cervix with biopsy. A culposcope is essentially a microscope for examining the cervix. Culposcopes cost $5-10,000 each. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Smart-phone Based Cervical Imaging Device Compared With a Standard Culposcope for the Detection of Cervical Dysplasia A Non-inferiority Evaluation.

When a woman has an abnormal pap smear or tests positive for a high risk strain of the HPV virus, the current standard of care includes culposcopic examination of the cervix with biopsy. A culposcope is essentially a microscope for examining the cervix. Culposcopes cost $5-10,000 each. The device being tested in this trial is an adaptor for a smart phone that will cost ~ $125. The larger goal of this line of studies see if the images obtained using the smart phone adaptor are non-inferior to those obtained with standard culposcopes. If the device is found to provide images equal to those of standard culposscopes, it could save thousands of dollars in healthcare expenditure currently that go to the purchase and maintenance of culposcopes. This has potential world-wide applications, especially for resource poor countries. This initial trial is a non-inferiority trial to compare the images obtained with the smart phone based device of those obtained by a standard culposcope

What participants receive

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

  • Mobile colposcopeDevice

    It is a comparison trial - Comparing a standard colposcpoe with a smart-phone based colpsocpe.

Study groups in NCT05388162
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
coposcopyOtherpatients undergoing colposcopy will have images taken of the cervix with a standard colposcope and the Mobile colposcope. de-identified images from both devices will then be entered into a custom colposcopic image evaluation program. Images will then be randomly evaluated by expert colposcopists as normal, abnormal or cannot evaluate. On abnormal images, the most abnormal point on the images will be marked as teh recommended biopsy site. Scoring for images from the standard colposcope will be compared with that for the Mobile Colposcope.
Receives: Device: Mobile colposcope

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine of the smart-phone based cervical imaging device provides non-inferior image to that obtained using a standard culposcope for the detecton of cervical dysplasia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mobile colposcope in people with Cervical Cancer, run by Scripps Health 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 0 inclusion and 1 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 22 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Determine of the smart-phone based cervical imaging device provides non-inferior image to that obtained using a standard culposcope for the detecton of cervical dysplasia (time frame: 1 day). 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 22 Nov 2022.
