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.

Treatments tested in this trial
Papilocare Vaginal Gel
Combination productWomen (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).
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Histopathological CIN regression
From cervical biopsies from the already planned colposcopy examinations.
Type specific HPV clearance
Additional HPV self-samples will be collected by the paticipants before initiation of the vaginal gel and after 6 months of treatment.
Secondary outcomes
Patient compliance and satisfaction measures
Compliance and treatment satisfaction will be assessed using patient-reported questionnaires and outcomes is measured using a 5-point Likert scale (minimum value = 1, maximum value = 5), where higher scores indicate a better outcome.
Characterizing the Vaginal Microbiome
A self-collected vaginal swab will be obtained before treatment initiation and again after six months of treatment.
