Optimizing Screening for Cervical Cancer Among Women Living With HIV in the Dominican Republic (NCT05556772)
Estudio Oportunidad: Optimizing Screening for Cervical Cancer Among Women Living With HIV in the Dominican Republic
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study compares different screening approaches to detect abnormal cell growth on the cervix that could be an early sign of cervical cancer. The lesions are caused by an infection of human papillomavirus, also called HPV. Using new methods to detect HPV may help doctors find ways to improve cervical cancer screening for women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the Dominican Republic and in other countries.
