About this trial

* To investigate the performance of cytology, extended genotyping, p16/Ki67 dual stain cytology, DNA methylation and viral load as triage markers in post-menopausal HPV-screen-positive women aged 50-64 years in the organized screening program to predict the risk of developing CIN2+. (work package 1) * To investigate the performance of cytology, extended genotyping, p16/Ki67 dual stain cytology, DNA methylation and viral load six months after cervical excision to predict the long-term risk of residual/recurrent CIN2+ lesions among women aged 23-64 (work-package 2)

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

HPV-screen-positive (aged 50-64)

Women who undergo test-of-cure (i.e. HPV and cytology) six months after LEEP in Central Denmark Region (aged 23-64)

Women who undergo follow-up test (i.e. HPV and cytology) 12 months after LEEP

A valid cytology-triage result (aged 23-64)

Disqualifiers

Listed in the registry as a person who have rejected to participate in research

Invalid cytology and HPV result six months after LEEP

No residual material available

Trial population

Women aged 50-65 who have been tested HPV-screen positive Women aged 23-64 who undergo test-of-cure or follow-up test after LEEP

Trial design

Cohort

Time perspective

Prospective

Treatments tested in this trial

  • cytology, p16/ki67 dual stain cytology (DS), extended genotyping, DNA methylation, viral load,

    Other intervention

    p16/Ki67 dual stain cytology, extended genotyping and DNA methylation will be performed from the residual cell-pellet from the HPV-positive screening samples. If no cytology-triage testing is performed as a part of the screening algorithm, a cytology will be performed at inclusion. If any residual material is left after DS, extended genotyping and DNA methylation, it will be stores at -80 degrees for future purposes.
