Brief Summary: To determine the efficacy and HPV clearance of an application of 85 TCA compared to placebo in the treatment of LSIL This is a randomized single-blind placebo-controlled study in 44 women aged 18-65 years with histologic-proved HPVCIN1 The study will test whether 85 TCA application will be effective treatment in LSIL The clinical study hypothesis is that TCA application at cervical lesion and transformation zone will achieve histologic complete remission of LSIL in significantly more patients than placebo therapy Patients will be randomized to placebo 3 acetic acid or 85TCA topical application at cervical lesion and transformation zone After 3 months cytology colposcopy histology and HPV testing will be performed The primary endpoint is treatment efficacy defined as complete histologic remission at 3 months after treatment The secondary endpoint is HPV clearance 3 months after treatment The protocol for the project is approved by an Institutional Review Board IRB Project is totally supported by a grant from Rajavithi Hospital There is no external funding
Detailed Description: The study aims to determine the efficacy and HPV clearance of an application of 85 TCA compared to placebo in the treatment of LSIL This study will be conducted in women aged 18-65 years with colposcopic-biopsy proved HPV or CIN1 have low grade abnormalities of precolposcopy cervical screening Low grade abnormalities include ASC-USHPV positive LSIL HPV 1618 persistent high-risk HPV infection In patients referred to the colposcopy clinic with ASC-US without HPV testing they will be eligible if the HPV testing later performed is positive for high risk type The study will test whether 85 TCA application will be effective treatment in LSIL The clinical study hypothesis is that TCA application at cervical lesion and transformation zone will achieve histologic complete remission of LSIL in significantly more patients than placebo therapy A study population is a group of patients who come to gynecology clinic after the histological diagnosis of HPVCIN I is established After eligibility is confirmed and demographic data is collected patients will sign informed consent a questionnaire will be answered by them and then all patients will have evaluation at pre-intervention check which comprised cytologic test a type-specific HPV test if not done previously a colposcopy colposcopic examination with 3 acetic acid Detail of colposcopic findings will be recorded Patients then will be randomized between the two study groups Group 1 will be intervention arm and receive 85TCA topical application at cervical lesion and transformation zone Application of TCA will be guided by colposcopy using a small cotton-tipped applicators and wooden end of the applicators A thin film of TCA will be applied to cover the lesion and transformation zone Applying the adjacent endocervial canal and lower part of transformation zone will be cautiously managed by using the wooden stick end of the cotton-tipped applicators soaked with TCA Protein denaturation and precipitation were confirmed by colposcopic observation of the color change to white Group 2 will be control arm and receive topical application of 3 acetic acid at cervical lesion and transformation zone in the same manner At the completion of the treatment there will be 22 patients in each group Treatment solutions will be prepared by pharmacy The treatment is unknown to the patient but the physicians will know because the different degree of cervical tissue whitening After interventions the patients will be observed for 5 minutes and will be questioned regarding uncomfortable sensations using a visual analog scale from 0 to 10 the value 0 is defined as no symptom and 10 worst symptom Uncomfortable sensations ie burning or soreness will be recorded Patients will be advised to refrain from sexual intercourse to use sanitary pads rather than tampons and to shower rather than to take baths for 2 weeks The patients will be reexamined after 2 weeks following the initial visit They will be queried about adverse events since the last visit Then the patients will be examined by a bivalve vaginal speculum for any evidence of incomplete healing ulcer and infection They will be scheduled for second follow-up visit at 3 months after the intervention A cytologic test a type-specific HPV test a colposcopy including multiple guided biopsies will be performed For the cases with no lesion upon colposcopy four-quadrant biopsies will be performed from each quadrant of the transformation zone Assessment of the pathological diagnosis will be done as blindness by pathologists at 3 months after the intervention The primary endpoint is treatment efficacy defined as complete histologic remission at 3 months after treatment The secondary endpoint is type-specific HPV clearance at 3 months after treatment A histologic complete remission histologic cure is defined as biopsy-proved normal histology at the time of final colposcopy examination at 3-month follow-up Because all of patients in this study have low-grade histology a histologic regression will be defined as biopsy-proved normal histology at the time of final colposcopy examination as well A histologic progression is defined as CIN2 or worse lesions that are demonstrated on biopsy and histologic persistence is defined as HPVCIN 1 lesions that are again demonstrated on biopsy at the final colposcopy examination To determine the sample size a randomized clinical trial sample size formula where type one α error was considered as 5 and the study power as 80 is used Based on previous studies and considering 466 as the difference in complete remission between the two groups A sample size of 17 patients in each group is needed α005 power08 Allowing for a dropout rate of 20 the final sample size is determined to be 22 subjects per group The total sample size is 44 The analyses will be conducted in all randomized subjects according to the intention-to-treat ITT principle Patients with missing data on remission or regression of LSIL and HPV clearance resulting from refusal to continue participation and those who failed to appear at scheduled follow-up visits is regarded as nonresponders Continuous variables will be summarized by descriptive statistics including number mean median standard deviation minimum and maximum Categorical variables will be summarized by number and percentage Independent samples Students t test to detect mean differences in baseline measures as well as interventions between the two groups In addition paired samples t-test is used to detect within-group differences Pearson Chi-square test is used for comparison of categorical variables The protocol for the project receives ethics approval from the Institutional Review Board and it is supported by a grant from Rajavithi Hospital There is no external funding
