Mail-in HPV Screening Program in NJ

3 augustus 2026 bijgewerkt door: Ana Isabel Tergas, MD, MPH, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey

A Mail-based HPV Sampling Program to Increase Cervical Cancer Screening in New Jersey

The purpose of this study is to help people who have missed their regular cervical cancer screening. The investigators are evaluating whether mailing an HPV self-sampling kit to participant home makes it easier and more convenient for people to get screened for cervical cancer. This study will also help to understand if people find this process acceptable and whether it is an effective way to improve screening rates.

Beschrijving

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Women, transgender men, and nonbinary individuals aged 30 to 75 who have a cervix.
  • No history of hysterectomy or cervical cancer.
  • No documented cervical cancer screening within guideline-recommended intervals: specifically, no Pap test in the past 3.5 years, no Pap/HPV co-test in the past 5.5 years, and no standalone HPV test results in the past 5.5 years. (A 6-month grace period is included to allow time for response to usual care outreach.)
  • At least two visits to University Hospital ambulatory care over the past five years, ensuring opportunity for follow-up and continuity of care.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of cervical dysplasia within the past 3.5 years, reflecting those likely under active surveillance or treatment protocols.
  • Currently pregnant, due to differing screening recommendations and clinical considerations.
  • Prior or current diagnosis of cervical cancer or ongoing treatment for cervical neoplasia.
  • Physical, cognitive, or functional limitations that would preclude use of the mailed self-sampling kit without assistance. Examples include severe arthritis or significant impairment affecting self-collection capability.
  • Lack of a telephone number or reliable mailing address on file.
  • Inability to communicate in English or Spanish, given study materials and staffing capabilities. Use of additional language services is not available.
  • Current enrollment in other cervical cancer screening or intervention studies that may interfere with participation or outcomes.
  • Inability to provide informed consent or comprehend study procedures based on cognitive capacity, as assessed by the Research Coordinator during initial contact.
