Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Women aged 30–50 with positive hrHPV and histologically confirmed CIN1 or CIN2, managed with watchful waiting.

Probably not a fit

Individuals outside the age range, without hrHPV/CIN1–CIN2, or not managed with watchful waiting may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This multicenter, randomized study compares Papilocare Vaginal Gel against a wait-and-see approach over six months in women with hrHPV and CIN1 or CIN2. Participants are randomly assigned 1:1 to receive the gel daily for 21 days, then every other day for three months, with monthly breaks for menstruation, or to follow standard watchful waiting. Outcome assessments include hrHPV clearance at six months, CIN regression, vaginal microbiome changes, and patient-reported satisfaction and adherence. Outcome assessors are blinded to treatment allocation to reduce bias. The study is led by the University of Aarhus with international collaboration from Procare Health Iberia and conducted at multiple gynecology departments.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the gel could offer a non-invasive option to help clear hrHPV and promote CIN regression, potentially reducing reliance on surgical treatments.

How similar studies have gone: Previous non-surgical approaches for HPV/CIN have shown mixed results; this study tests a novel Coriolus versicolor-based gel in a randomized setting.
