HPV types and anal cancer in China
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how different types of HPV are linked to anal cancer in China. By testing your tumor sample, the researchers hope to better understand what causes anal cancer, which could help guide prevention and treatment.

This trial checks whether tumor samples contain HPV DNA (genetic material from the HPV virus). The goal is to improve detection in anal and cervical cancers, especially in patients planning standard radiation treatment.
This study looks at HPV (the virus that can cause anal cancer) and checks if certain types of high-risk HPV are linked to abnormal cells or cancer in the anus, 10 years after joining the IPERGAY trial. It helps researchers understand long-term risks.
This study tests a self-collected anal swab for detecting HPV (the virus that can cause anal cancer) in people living with HIV. It aims to see if this simple swab is as accurate as a doctor-collected sample, and may help prevent anal cancer.
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (retifanlimab) to standard chemoradiation improves outcomes for people with locally advanced anal cancer. The treatment is adjusted based on HPV DNA levels in your blood.
This study tests whether having people collect their own anal samples at home can help find and treat early signs of anal cancer. It is for men and transgender women who have sex with men and who live in or near Chicago, Houston, or Milwaukee.
This study tests how well a special HPV test (called BD Onclarity™) can find anal cancer or precancer. It is for people at high risk or with known anal abnormalities, and aims to improve early detection.
