Summary
This study tests a program called Potlako+ that combines community education, help for healthcare workers, and patient guides to speed up cancer detection and treatment. About 874 adults in Botswana with possible cancer symptoms will take part. Half of the communities get the program, the other half continue usual care. The goal is to see if the program reduces the time from noticing symptoms to getting a diagnosis and starting treatment.
