Funder: Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) [UG3/UH3 HD096908]
Overview: The overall goal of this study is to test a multilevel package of interventions at the community- and health system-levels to connect adolescent girls and young women with a source of regular care to provide a sustainable platform for successful implementation of regular HIV testing and adherence to antiviral treatment.
Economic Evaluation of Approaches to Enhance Cancer Registry Data Quality
Developing and Testing a Multilevel Package of Interventions for an Integrated Care Delivery Model of HIV Prevention and Treatment Targeting Adolescent Girls in Zambia
Economic Evaluation of Approaches to Enhance Cancer Registry Data Quality
Funder: CDC [75D30119F06146]
Overview: We are evaluating cancer registry operations to identify optimal approaches to improve timeliness, completeness, and overall data quality. Activity-based cost will be generated for each registry activity to assess the cost-efficiency of adopting improvements in cancer data acquisition and data processing.
Integrated Delivery of Cancer Control Interventions for Adolescents and Young Adults Living with HIV in Zambia
M_OncoEd and ICAN – leveraging mhealth technology for provider trainings, delivering cancer information to individuals and facilitating screening/referral procedures
An Integrated Community-clinic Model of Optimized Implementation Strategies to Increase Early Detection of Breast and Cervical Cancers in Kenya
Funder: NCI [U01 CA275054]
Overview: The goal is to develop and test an integrated model of cancer control for adolescents and young adults living with HIV that can be delivered as an embedded component in existing HIV treatment programs in primary care facilities and linked with specialist treatment in cancer centers.

An Integrated Community-clinic Model of Optimized Implementation Strategies to Increase Early Detection of Breast and Cervical Cancers in Kenya
Funder: NCI [R01CA269472]
Overview: Kenya has a high incidence of breast and cervical cancers, and most women are diagnosed with late-stage disease. We will conduct a study to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of strategies to increase the uptake of cancer screening and completion of recommended diagnostic and treatment services.

Funder: NCI [R21CA224387 and R21CA274600]
Overview: Implenomics, together with academic institutions in India, the Kerala Directorate of Health and RTI International, have been awarded a grant from the National Cancer Institute. Funding from the grant will be used to create mobile apps for use in India that connect patients in the community and providers in primary care facilities with screening support staff at tertiary medical colleges. The award coincides with the launch of the Global Cancer Moonshot to improve cancer screening uptake and decrease mortality in the Indo-Pacific region.
