Integrated Delivery of Cancer Control Interventions for Adolescents and Young Adults Living With HIV in Zambia

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

Adolescents and young adults living with HIV experience higher premature mortality from cancer than their uninfected peers. In Zambia, because of multilevel barriers, interventions for early diagnosis and optimized treatment to reduce this cancer mortality are underutilized for this disproportionally impacted cohort. In this study, the investigators will test peer-to-peer education and support strategies to increase use of early diagnosis services in HIV treatment facilities and improve compliance with cancer treatment in the cancer center.
