A research project funded by the National Cancer Institute to study viral and immunological factors of HPV-associated cancers in people living with HIV, aiming to improve prevention and treatment strategies.
Description
This project aims to inform the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies for HPV-related cancers among people living with HIV (PLWH) in sub-Saharan Africa through viral and immune profiling using high-dimensional technologies. It focuses on estimating the attributable fraction of tumors caused by HPV among PLWH and HIV uninfected patients, characterizing the tumor immune landscape of HPV-related cancers, and investigating the association between HIV status and treatment outcomes for HPV-related cancers.
