Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
People living with HIV who develop AIDS-associated or AIDS-related cancers and are eligible for clinical trials or translational studies within AMC sites.
✕Less likely to help
If you do not have an AIDS-associated cancer or are not eligible for AMC trials, direct benefits may be limited.
What this research studies
This program coordinates multiple clinical trials and translational work to understand and treat cancers that are more common in people with HIV. It brings together researchers, clinics, and patient advocates to study new therapies, prevention approaches, and the biology of HIV-associated cancers. The aim is to lower cancer incidence, reduce illness, and improve survival for PLWH worldwide.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: Could lead to new cancer treatments, prevention methods, and better guidelines for people living with HIV.
How similar studies have gone: AMC has previously run numerous trials with billions of data contributing to practice guidelines and cancer care improvements.
