To all: StressGen enters the clinic with lead product HspE7 against cervical dysplasia:

I was delighted that the indication for the trial is cervical dysplasia. It will be a heck of a lot easier to get FDA approval for treatment of warts compared to treatment of cancer.

The press release says the patient population will have CIN II and CIN III. This was somewhere on the web: CIN (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia): lesions on the epithelium of the cervix that are precursors of invasive disease. CIN II and CIN III have the potential for progressing to invasive cervical cancer; CIN I does not usually progress to invasive disease.

The link below has an excellent discussion (with pictures) of the different grades of cervical dysplasia.
