Intervention(s)
|
Current interventions as of 08/09/2017: Before their colposcopy examination women, who have signed a consent form to take part, will firstly be asked to provide a sample of urine using a Colli-Pee collection kit. They will then be asked to take two self-samples, either:
1. Swabs (like cotton buds) - one taken with a Dacron swab and placed into a liquid specimen transport medium and one with a dry flocked swab and transported as a dry sample. The order in which samples are taken is randomised to avoid bias. or 2. Qvintip and HerSwab self-test kits. This involves women taking a sample with a HerSwab collection device and a sample taken with a Qvintip device. Once again sample order will be randomised. 300 women will be put into each group and given an illustrated instruction sheet. They will also be asked to fill in a short questionnaire about how easy or difficult they found taking each sample. Any smear and biopsy results from the colposcopy, and over the following 9 months or so, will be collected from hospital records. Self-samples will be taken to the Centre for Cancer Prevention. HPV results will be not given to the woman or her doctor as we do not know how reliable they are for clinical care. They may continue to take the cervico-vaginal samples even if they cannot provide a urine sample.
There is no active follow-up of participants. Passive follow-up of the collection of histology and cytology results will take place. Taking part in the study will not affect routine colposcopy care.

Primary Outcome(s)
|
1. The total amount of nucleic acid in the samples (including RNA) 2. Quantification of amplifiable human genomic DNA 3. Estimation of the viral load of HPV16 in the samples 4. Validated HPV platforms which will give quantifiable measures of HPV with some degree of typing
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
Histological and cytological outcomes and total scores allocated by women to each test on the acceptability questionnaire
