Cervical Cancer, HPV
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is a validation study to confirm the ability of Telomescan OBP-401 to identify CTCs in patients with HPV 16 / 18 associated cervical cancer. CTCs identified will be tested for the presence of the HPV 16 / 18 E6 protein, confirming a cervical cancer origin.
Interventions
All study participants will have 15 mL of blood drawn for the purpose of the study.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Able to safely provide 15 ml of blood * Able to provide informed consent * Pathologically confirmed invasive cervical cancer * Proof of serotype HPV 16 or HPV 18 positive within 3 years of the study * Patients with stages IIA2 to IVB OR recurrent cervical cancer * For patients with newly diagnosed cervical cancer, they must be enrolled (blood drawn) prior to initiating anti-cancer therapy * For patients with recurrent cervical cancer, they must be enrolled (blood drawn) prior to initiating a new anti-cancer therapy for progression of disease (based on RECIST 1.1 criteria). Patients who have progressed and are moving to best supportive care are eligible. * If patients meet criteria 5.1A 5 above, the following criteria must be met: * At least 21 days have elapsed following treatment with cytotoxic chemotherapy * At least 14 days have elapsed following treatment with biologic therapy * At least 14 days have elapsed following radiation therapy
Exclusion criteria
* History of any cancer other than cervix cancer within the past five years. * History of any known germ-line pathogenic mutation (ie BRCA 1 / 2 or Lynch syndrome, but genetic testing is not required) * Current use of systemic corticosteroids at doses exceeding 10 mg per day of prednisone or its equivalent. * Active infection including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV. * Any patient unable to comply with the study criteria. * Patients taking any anti-inflammatory agents (aspirin, NSAIDs, steroids), within 24 hrs prior to blood draw.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Effectiveness of OBP-401 to identify CTCs in patients with active HPV 16 / 18 associated cervical cancer compared to non-cancer controls (patients without CIN 2 - 3 or cancer). | 3 Years |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Presence of HPV 16 or 18 genome in the samples with a positive CTC result, in order to confirm a cervical cancer origin. | 3 Years |
| Recurrence rates in patients stratified by CTC identification | 3 Years |
