The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopy can improve the ability to detect the presence of premalignant lesions on the cervix.
Subjects (approximately 500) will be initially enrolled from a general screening population in the first phase, and during the second phase from the colposcopy clinic population (approximately 300) based on their referral abnormal Pap cytology conducted within 120-days in order to achieve a statistically viable number of normal women, women with Cervical Intra-epithelial Neoplasia (CIN1/2) and women with CIN3+, as described in Section 6.1, "Cervical Cytology Enrollment Targets". After the Cervical Neoplasia Detection System (CNDS) test, a sample for Hybrid Capture 2 Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing and liquid cytology will be collected in addition to colposcopy and biopsy, if indicated.
A key component of effective screening studies designed to evaluate new detection modalities is verification of the gold standard comparison by which estimates of sensitivity and specificity are generated. In the case of screening studies in general and studies of cervical disease detection in particular, the avoidance of verification bias is a priority. For the purposes of the proposed study, CIN3 or cancer (CIN3+) must be verified or adjudicated by multiple histopathologists. Results for women with CIN1 or CIN2 will be confirmed histopathologically and analyzed as a separate subgroup because these lesions often regress to normal in certain populations and tend to cause disagreement among histopathologists. In order to verify absence of disease (i.e., CIN1 or less severe), the investigators will not rely on histopathology, as it would not be ethical to perform multiple biopsies or excisional procedures to obtain a tissue sample for histopathology. Instead, women will be considered normal if they have negative referral cytology, are free of high risk HPV and are colposcopically normal.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic accuracy including sensitivity, specificity and predictive values | Collect clinical data for re-calibrating the processing of spectral data from the CNDS for eventual use as a primary screening modality. Resampling or other cross validation methods will be used to estimate the sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of a screening algorithm based on the recalibrated spectral data. These estimates will be used to compare with those of existing screening and diagnostic modalities such as Pap based cytopathology, HPV DNA testing and/or VIA (Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid). | for each participant approximately 30 days to collect data, no follow up data collected |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability | Is the CNDS safe when used as directed and that the test procedure is accepted by both physicians and their patients. | 30 days, no follow up inteneded |
