Conclusions From ACCP Clinical Research in Developing Countries
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Cancer Prevention (ACCP) has assessed innovative and alternative approaches to screening and treatment of precancerous lesions that are safe, effective, and acceptable and perform reliably in low-resource settings. ACCP projects have focused on regions in which cervical cancer incidence and mortality are highest—sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, and South Asia—and on reaching women in their 30s and 40s (since many women in these regions may be screened only once or twice in their lifetimes). This fact sheet presents conclusions based on currently available ACCP clinical research data. It will be updated as additional fi nal data become available.
