NCT02816879

Active Not RecruitingNA

Sponsor: Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center

Conditions: Anal Carcinoma, HIV Infection, Human Papillomavirus Infection

Interventions: Cytology Specimen Collection Procedure, Laboratory Biomarker Analysis

Countries: United States

This clinical trial compares three anal cytology collection procedures (collected at a single visit) in men who have sex with men (MSM). It also compares two different tests for human papilloma virus, the virus that causes high grade anal dysplasia, which is thought to occur before anal cancer. This study may help doctors develop better screening for high-grade anal dysplasia in MSM in order to identify those who need to return for additional screening and treatment.
