What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of Papillex4, a dietary supplement, on the regression of abnormal cervical cells caused by HPV in women diagnosed with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades 1 or 2. The main goal is to see if Papillex4 leads to a greater improvement in cervical cell abnormalities compared to a placebo by day 180. Participants will take either Papillex4 or a placebo twice daily for 180 days. Papillex4 contains vitamins, minerals, plant extracts, and other natural substances. Both groups will follow the same dosing schedule with two capsules taken with the first and last meals each day. The study design is randomized and quadruple-blinded, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives Papillex4 or placebo. During the study, participants will undergo clinical visits, complete questionnaires, and have cervical cell assessments including PAP smears and HPV tests. Some may have colonoscopy if applicable. Researchers will measure changes in cervical cell abnormalities, HPV clearance, immune markers, micronutrient status, symptom scores, quality of life, and monitor safety events over 180 to 360 days. Participants are expected to maintain their usual lifestyle habits and complete all study activities and visits.
