Prevention study for Cervical Cancer
Official title Secondary Cervical Cancer Prevention of Vulnerable Women With HPV and HIV Co-infection in India
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07209917
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Cervical cancer (CC) remains one of the most common malignancies among women in India, with nearly 100,000 women diagnosed annually and over 60,000 preventable deaths annually. With high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) as the causative agent for CC, one risk factor that places women at high risk for CC is human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), as impaired immune response against Human papillomavirus (HPV) may result in persistent HR-HPV infection, a critical risk factor for progression of HPV-related cervical oncogenesis.
