In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Cervical cancer disproportionately affects women in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), particularly women living with HIV (WLWH) who have a 6-fold increased risk of cervical cancer compared to women in the general population. Thermal ablation (TA) is recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) to treat cervical precancerous lesions, although its efficacy can be suboptimal in WLWH. This is even more important at a time when Rwanda has launched a National Cervical Cancer Screening Program (NCCSP) with human papillomavirus (HPV) testing and treatment, mainly using TA with unknown outcomes. Therefore, we will conduct a feasibility study (C1001P-CS5) among 300 Rwandan WLWH to provide evidence needed to launch a future effectiveness study. The proposed study will evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of a two-probe TA technique (endocervical and ectocervical probes)
