NCT04687267
Brief Summary:
Prospective study including women aged 25-45 years, adherent to the cervical screening program of four different centers of the Veneto region, with a diagnosis of CIN2 lesion. After enrollment according to predefined criteria, and informed consent to participate, the CIN2 lesions are managed by follow-up; cases with progressive lesions will be treated immediately, cases with CIN2 persistence for more than 12 months will be treated as well. Viral, molecular and immunocytochemical biomarkers will be studied, and evaluated in relation to the clinical outcome.
Detailed Description:
Women aged 25-45 years, adherent to the organized population-based cervical screening program, with a histological diagnosis of CIN2 and fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be invited to participate to the study, previously providing specific information; in case of acceptance, informed consent is signed.
STUDY PROTOCOL:
The adherent women will attend periodical control visits:
* every 6 months up to 24 months, with performance of: pap test (PT) and colposcopy (with biopsy in case of visible alterations);
* at 6 and 12 months control visit: a liquid-based sample of cervical cells will be collected for the biomarkers' analyses.
BIOMARKERS:
1. \- HPV search and partial HPV16/18 genotyping, by cobas 4800 high-risk HPV assay (Roche); PCR with MY09/MY11 consensus primers and full genotyping by restriction fragment length analysis, plus PCR with beta-globin primers (in-house);
2. \- methylation analysis of the cellular genes FAM194A and hsa-mir124-2, by methylation-specific quantitative PCR test (qMSP - QIAsure methylation test, Qiagen);
3. \- methylation analysis of the L1 and L2 viral genes of HPV types 16 and 18, by pyrosequencing;
4. \- immunocytochemical analysis for p16INK4A/Ki67 proteins (dual stain), by p16INK4A/Ki67 immunocytochemical analysis by CINtec Plus kit (Roche).
