Testing whether blood and urine can be used to detect ctHPVDNA in women with known history of cervical cancer

If so, you may be able to take part in a research study that aims to identify a new non-invasive biomarker (blood test) to 1) detect cervical cancer during screenings and 2) track response to treatment, detect early recurrence and guide personalized treatment decisions.
