NCT ID NCT06708351
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 18, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests better ways to screen and treat cervical cancer in women living with HIV in Kenya, who face a much higher risk. Researchers will use HPV self-testing, care navigators, and a mobile app to help more women get diagnosed and treated. The goal is to find strategies that work in real-world clinics and can be used across Africa.
