Study Confirms Self-collection for HPV Testing may Improve Cervical Cancer Screening Rates Among Asian American Women

Key Points

Self-collection for HPV testing significantly increased screening rates among Asian American women.
Women who engaged in self-collection reported completion rates much higher than those referred to clinics.
The intervention included an educational workshop aimed at improving awareness and knowledge of HPV and cervical cancer.
Findings suggest that self-collection could effectively address disparities in cervical cancer screening.

Abstract

Data presented during the 18th AACR Conference on the Science of Cancer Health Disparities (2025) domonstrates that if Asian American women, among them Korean, Vietnamese, and Chinese, were given the option to collect their own sample for human papillomavirus (HPV) testing after an educational workshop, they completed cervical cancer screening at much higher rates compared with workshop attendees who were referred to clinics.
