Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Women undergoing cervical cancer screening
HIV-infected women will undergo a cervical cancer screening examination using the VIA method. A digital photograph of the cervix will also be taken to aide visual screening. This is known as digital cervicography, and it is currently standard of care within cervical cancer screening clinics in Zambia.
Cervical samples will be collected for molecular testing using Xpert HPV, and OncoE6. Cervical biopsy samples will also be obtained for confirmatory histopathologic diagnosis.
Xpert HPV
Point-of-care HPV DNA PCR test
OncoE6
Point-of-care E6 oncoprotein test
