Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
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.
