About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a Coriolus versicolor-based vaginal gel promotes regression of CIN1/CIN2 and facilitates HPV clearance in women aged 30-50 years diagnosed with CIN1 or CIN2 and HPV. In addition, the study will assess patient satisfaction, treatment compliance and characterize the vaginal microbiome.
The primary outcomes therefore is:
* the regression of the cervical dysplasia from baseline to the follow-up (6 months), which will be assessed through either liquid-based cytology and/or histopathology (biopsy). * HPV clearance from baseline to follow-up (6 months)
In this randomized controlled study, eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 into two groups:
1. Intervention group: Women (n=35) will apply a CV-based vaginal gel (Papilocare®) daily for 21 days for 3 months. Afterward, the gel should be used every other day for an additional 3 months. Every month includes a 7-day break due to menstruation (28 days cycle). 2. Control group; Women (n=35) will follow the conventional "wait and see" approach.
