Summary
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.
Detailed description
OUTLINE: Participants participate in three annual interviews and clinical exams that last approximately 2 hours. Study participants provide blood, urine, and swab samples from the cervix, anus, and vagina and receive a pelvic exam. Any positive results are followed up in the study clinic.
