Continuation of a Home/Community-Based Anal Cancer Screening Unit and Protocol at LGBTQ+ Focused Community Events

Status: Recruiting

This study will help to identify challenges and barriers to self-performing anal cancer screening tests, and may identify unique ways to make this form of screening easier, more cost-effective, and more frequently performed. We believe that it has the potential to minimize the frequency of both disease and death from anal cancer among high-risk patient groups.
