Summary

This study tests whether people living with HIV can collect their own swab samples to screen for HPV, a virus that can lead to anal cancer. Researchers will compare the accuracy and comfort of self-screening versus a traditional swab done by a healthcare professional. The goal is to make cancer screening easier and more accessible for this group.
