While self-sampling could help address anal cancer screening barriers, no studies have investigated annual engagement with this method or compared it to annual screening with a provider. Building on our baseline paper,(7) we compared annual anal screening engagement between home-based self-sampling and clinic-based clinician sampling. The Prevent Anal Cancer Self-Swab Study recruited and randomized sexual and gender minority individuals 25 years and over who have sex with men to a home or clinic arm. Home-based participants were mailed an anal human papillomavirus self-sampling kit at baseline and 12 months, while clinic-based participants were asked to schedule and attend one of five participating clinics at baseline and 12 months. Using Poisson regression, we conducted an intention-to-treat analysis of 240 randomized participants who were invited to screen at both timepoints. 58.8% of participants completed annual (median = 370 days) anal screening. In the home arm, 65.0% of participants engaged in annual screening compared to 52.5% of clinic-based participants (p = 0.049). When stratified by HIV status, persons living with HIV had a higher proportion of home (71.1%) versus clinic (22.2%) annual screening (p < 0.001). Non-Hispanic Black participants participated more in home-based annual anal screening(73.1%) than annual clinic screening(31.6%) (p = 0.01). Overall, annual screening engagement was significantly higher among participants who had heard of anal cancer from an LGBTQ organization, reported "some" prior anal cancer knowledge, preferred an insertive anal sex position, and reported any prior cancer diagnosis. Annual screening engagement among those at disproportionate anal cancer risk was higher in the home arm.
