Abstract
We review the intersection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and cancer globally, including the complex interplay of oncogenic infections, chronic inflammation, and behavioral and other factors in increasing cancer risk among people with HIV (PWH). We discuss current cancer screening, prevention, and treatment recommendations for PWH. Specific interventions include vaccination, behavioral risk reduction, timely HIV diagnosis and treatment, screening for specific cancer sites, and multifaceted treatment considerations unique to PWH including supportive care and drug interactions. Finally, the potential of novel therapies and the need for inclusive cancer clinical trials are highlighted. Collaborative multidisciplinary efforts are critical for continued progress against cancer among PWH.
