Mashup Score: 2
PURPOSE People with HIV (PWH) have worse cancer outcomes, partially because of inequities in cancer treatment. We evaluated cancer treatment disparities among PWH, including an assessment of changes in disparities over time. METHODS We used data from the HIV/AIDS Cancer Match Study, a population-based HIV and cancer registry linkage to examine diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), and cancers of the cervix, lung, anus, prostate, colon, and female breast. Outcomes included receipt of (1) any cancer treatment and (2) standard therapy among patients with local-stage cancer. We assessed associations between HIV and each outcome by estimating adjusted prevalence odds ratios (aORs) with 95% CI and trends over time. We identified predictors of nonreceipt of cancer treatment in PWH. RESULTS From 2001 to 2019, compared with people with cancer without HIV (n = 2,880,955), PWH (n = 16,334) were more likely to not receive cancer treatment for cervical cancer (aOR, 2.03 [95%

Mashup Score: 0Cancer specialists not making decisions based on HIV status, but also not discussing HIV with patients - 1 year(s) ago
A qualitative study explored factors that influenced how oncologists approached cancer treatment among people living with HIV in the US. The providers rarely discussed the intersection of HIV and cancer with their patients, often for confidentiality reasons. None had received specific training on HIV, and most reported treating HIV like any other chronic health condition. They did report routine…

Mashup Score: 13Improving Cancer Care in People Living with HIV: A Qualitative Study of Provider Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practice - 1 year(s) ago
: Cancer is now the leading cause of non-AIDS death in the U.S. HIV population. People living with HIV (PLWH) are known to have lower cancer treatment rates and worse cancer outcomes. Disparate cancer treatment is driven by health system, patient, and clinician factors.
