November 9, 2016 updated by: Gen-Probe, Incorporated

Clinical Evaluation of the APTIMA® HPV Assay on the TIGRIS® DTS® System in Women With ASC-US Pap Test Results and in Women 30 Years of Age or Older With Negative Pap Test Results Using ThinPrep Pap Test Specimens

The purpose of this study is to provide data on the performance of the APTIMA HPV Assay using the TIGRIS System in detecting HPV types that may cause cervical cancer.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of the clinical trial is to evaluate the APTIMA HPV Assay, using the TIGRIS System, in cervical cancer screening programs. This will be achieved by determining the performance of the assay for detecting high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types in women with known cervical disease status. The assay will be evaluated in sample populations of women with ASC-US Pap test results ("ASC-US results") and women 30 years of age or older ("30+ years of age") with negative (NILM) cytology results.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

17 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Female 21 years or older (ASC-US study only)
  • Female 30 years or older (Adjunct and ASC-US studies)
  • Subject attending a participating clinic and undergoing a Pap screening exam during the clinic visit
  • Ability to comprehend and sign an IRB-approved Informed Consent Form

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of cervical disease (cancer or precancerous condition) in the past 12 months
  • Abnormal Pap test result in the past 12 months
  • Subject under 18 years of age and consenting to the study without the presence of their parent or legal guardian
  • Known to be pregnant
  • Having an illness or medical condition that could interfere with or affect the conduct, results, and/or completion of the clinical trial
  • Having an illness or medical condition that the investigator or physician feels would create an unacceptable risk to the subject if she enrolled into the clinical trial

  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Other: Adjunct (i.e. Normal Pap)
The Adjunct study will evaluate APTIMA HPV Assay clinical performance for detecting high-risk HPV types in female subjects 30+ years of age with negative (NILM) cytology results from routine Pap testing. This will be accomplished by evaluating the assay performance compared to known cervical disease status at baseline and after a 3-year follow-up period. A comparator FDA-Approved HPV DNA test is reported.
Device: APTIMA HPV Assay
The APTIMA HPV Assay is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) that qualitatively detects human papillomavirus (HPV) E6/E7 messenger RNA (mRNA) from 14 HPV types (types 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68) that are associated with cervical cancer ("high-risk types"). The assay cannot determine the specific high-risk HPV type(s) present and does not cross-react with 5 HPV types that are considered non-oncogenic (not associated with cervical cancer; types 6, 11, 42, 43, and 44).
Device: FDA-Approved HPV DNA Test
A FDA-Approved HPV DNA Test is used as the comparator assay.
Other: ASC-US
The ASC-US study will evaluate the APTIMA HPV Assay clinical performance for detecting high-risk HPV types in subjects with ASC-US Pap test results from routine Pap testing and known cervical disease status (based on colposcopic biopsy results). A comparator FDA-Approved HPV DNA test is reported. There is no follow-up period.
