Community push aims to beat Cancer's clock in botswana

NCT ID NCT04141449

Summary

This study is testing whether a community program called Potlako+ can help people with possible cancer symptoms get diagnosed and treated faster. The program involves educating communities about cancer warning signs and providing patient navigators to guide people through the healthcare system. Researchers are comparing 20 communities in Botswana, with half using the new program and half using standard care, to see if it reduces delays and leads to more early-stage treatment.
