Long-Term Follow-Up of HPV FOCAL Participants

Evaluation of CIN2+ Rates up to 120 Months After 48-Month Co-Testing (Long Term Follow up of HPV FOCAL Participants)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This FOCAL follow-up study aims to assess the long-term effectiveness and safety of primary HPV testing for cervical cancer screening. A cohort of participants from the original FOCAL study will be asked to see their health care provider to submit another cervical sample for cytology and HPV testing. This will permit evaluation of long term safety and effectiveness of primary HPV testing up to ten years after a participant's first screening in the FOCAL study and comparison of primary HPV testing to HPV and cytology co-testing.
