Training physicians in anal cancer screening and treatment in Nigeria

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study tests two training protocols for physicians on anal cancer screening and treatment, comparing a standard protocol from high-income settings with a tailored protocol for Nigeria. The research aims to identify barriers to learning the procedure and develop strategies to enhance training effectiveness. An implementation science committee will co-design an improved training program, which will then be evaluated through a Hybrid Type 2 trial to monitor outcomes over time. The study focuses on integrating anal cancer care into existing HIV treatment frameworks.
