The clinical performance of the CONFIDENCE HPVTM test (NEUMANN Diagnostics Ltd.) as a first-line primary cervical cancer screening test from cervical samples collected in ThinPrep® (Hologic, Inc.) and from self-collected vaginal samples taken with the Qvintip® device (Aprovix AB) was assessed in the multicentric prospective TRACE (Triage and Risk Assessment of Cervical Precancer by Epigenetic Biomarker) trial in Hungary.
