Primary Study Aims
Principal Investigator - Dr. Scott Dryden-Peterson MD, MSc
Thabatse is a prospective cohort study which aims to evaluate the risk factors for cancer and describe the response to treatment for patients who are HIV positive and not on Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) and those on ART.
Study Objectives
The primary aims are to evaluate the important risk factors for cancer in Botswana (including HIV) and describe the response to treatment for patients without HIV, with HIV but not yet on HAART, and those with HIV and on HAART.
Principal Investigator - Dr. Rebecca Luckett, MD, MPH
Name of the Study: Evaluation of cervical cancer screening algorithms using primary high risk human papillomavirus (HPV) in Gaborone and South East District, Botswana
Completed: Recruitment of 300 women living with HIV in Gaborone, and one year follow-up of this cohort.
On-going: Recruitment of a new cohort of 3000 women in South East District is currently underway. 50% of the cohort will be women living with HIV.
