Trial Outcomes & Findings for Randomized Clinical Trial on Clinical Management of ASCUS and LSIL (ALTS) (NCT NCT01131312)

NCT ID: NCT01131312

Last Updated: 2018-11-20

Results Overview

A cervical exam, pap test, human papilloma virus (HPV) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) test, and/or colposcopy was performed to detect whether or not a participant had CINIII. CINIII is defined as moderate or severe dysplasia or abnormal cells located on the cervix that can lead to cancer.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 2 years

Cumulative detection of CIN2 and above was assessed by pathologists who reviewed specimens from cervical pelvic exams (i.e. thin prep pap test, Human papillomavirus (HPV) Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) test, and/or colposcopy). Pathologists graded the specimens from CIN2 (moderate grade lesion) to CIN3 (high grade lesion).
