Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the outcome of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN-II) patients followed up without treatment for 24 months according to p16 and ki-67 immunohistochemical staining and to the expression of NK cell receptors.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Cervical cancer and its precursor lesions, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), represents a significant public health problem,induced by persistent infection of human papillomavirus (HPV). It is known that a significant percentage of CIN regresses spontaneously and only a minority of these lesions progress to cervical cancer. CIN-II is an intermediate state that can regress to CIN-I or less, or progress to CIN-III spontaneously. The rate of spontaneous regression and progression in follow-up studies are around 40-60% and 10-20%, respectively. Overestimating CIN-II lesions may cause overtreatment by excisional treatment and increase the risk of subsequent obstetric complications.

Patients newly diagnosed with CIN-II colposcopy-directed biopsy who agreed to follow up at four months intervals for at least 12 months with cervical cytology and colposcopy, were prospectively recruited. p16, ki-67 and NK receptors expression were analyzed in all CIN-II biopsies. Total regression, partial regression, persistence and progression rates of CIN-II were defined as a final outcome.
