Trial summary

The goal of this multicenter, observational study is to evaluate whether methylation testing of paired box gene 1 (PAX1) can better predict and diagnose recurrence or persistent disease in patients with positive margins after cervical conization for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL).

About this study

Official title: Multicenter Study on PAX1 Methylation for Predicting Lesion Persistence/Recurrence in HSIL Patients with Positive Margins After Cervical Conization

The goal of this multicenter, observational study is to evaluate whether methylation testing of paired box gene 1 (PAX1) can better predict and diagnose recurrence or persistent disease in patients with positive margins after cervical conization for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL). The main question it aims to answer is:

Can PAX1 gene methylation testing provide a more accurate and effective prediction and diagnosis of cervical disease recurrence/persistence in addition to existing methods? Participants will be managed according to the latest clinical guidelines, and during follow-up, a non-invasive test, PAX1 gene methylation testing, will be added.

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicenter, prospective observational study that qualitatively assesses the methylation status of the PAX1 gene in cervical exfoliated cells from patients with HSIL and positive margins after conization. The aim is to evaluate the ability of PAX1 gene methylation testing to predict treatment failure (lesion recurrence or persistence). The first follow-up occurs 6 months post-surgery, including high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing and cytology, with referral for colposcopy, including biopsy and/or endocervical curettage (ECC), if necessary. Subsequent management and follow-up are based on examination results, following clinical guidelines, and arranged at intervals of 6-12 months depending on the findings. The follow-up includes routine clinical examinations widely applied in practice, and PAX1 testing will be completed at each follow-up visit. PAX1 testing, like hrHPV testing and cytology, will be performed using cervical exfoliated cells.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment failure rate within 24 months after surgery (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2+ (CIN2+) recurrence/residual rates)

    the percentage of HSIL treatment failure (CIN2+ recurrence and residual) within 24 months after surgery

    Measured: 2 years post-surgery

  2. Sensitivity of the PAX1 methylation to detect treatment failure

    Measured: 2 years post-surgery

  3. specificity of the PAX1 methylation to detect treatment failure

    Measured: 2 years post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of High-grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions (HSIL) and Cervical Conization, run by Women's Hospital School Of Medicine Zhejiang University at 1 site in China.

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 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2024. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Lv Weiguo, Ph.D (86-13588819218, lbwg@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment failure rate within 24 months after surgery (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2+ (CIN2+) recurrence/residual rates) (time frame: 2 years post-surgery). The study lists 3 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 Dec 2024.
