NCT ID NCT06182241
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study in South Africa works with women who have HIV and abnormal Pap results to find out why some don't follow up for cervical cancer care. Researchers will interview patients and providers, then create a short counseling and navigation program. They will test if the program is practical and acceptable in a small pilot study with 60 women.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
behavioral intervention (counseling and navigation)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a practical program that helps women with HIV complete cervical cancer treatment, improving survival rates.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage pilot study (80 participants) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. The intervention may not work in larger, diverse populations.
