Abstract Purpose: Cervical cancer is both preventable and curable, yet, in Côte d’Ivoire, it is the second deadliest cancer affecting women. The Unitaid-funded SUCCESS project is supporting the Ivorian Ministry of Health (MOH) to eliminate cervical cancer through a screen-and-treat strategy with primary Human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing for secondary prevention. However, little is known about the challenges and opportunities of HPV-testing in Côte d’Ivoire. Here, we aimed to analyze the time elapsed between testing and results reception to highlight critical implementation steps. Methods: We analyzed preliminary cohort study data of women aged 25-49 years who underwent HPV-testing at 10 health facilities, April-November 2022. After phone-call notification of result availability, results were delivered in-person by the healthcare provider, along with counseling. Visual acetic acid inspection (VIA) followed for HPV-positive, and treatment (same-day thermal ablation (TA) or loop electrical excision procedure) for VIA-positive women. Participants were followed through each step to document the test-to-treatment process and compute the expected testing-to-treatment time. Logistic regression was used to explore factors associated with VIA completion after an HPV-positive test. Results: 1868 women (median age 37 [Inter Quartile Range: 33-41]) years were enrolled by November 2022, of whom 1712 (91.6%) preferred self-sampling. Overall, 948 (50.7%) results were available at health facility level; 240 (25.3%) within 30 days, 322 (34%) within 30-60 days and 386 (40.7%) after 60 days. There were 189 (19.9%) HPV-positive women of whom 56 (30%) underwent VIA. The average duration from testing to TA was 70.1±42.1 days, with 61.4±41.8 days from sample collection to results reception, and 27.5±29.8 days from reception to VIA. Women encountering a duration of 30-60 (OR 0.33, 95%CI: [0.16-0.68]) or more than 60 (OR 0.52, 95%CI: [0.29-0.94]) days between testing and result reception were less likely to complete VIA compared with those with less than 30 days. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that test-to-treatment completion is likely to be affected by insufficiencies in sample/result processing and return to women. Hopefully, the upcoming deployment of 07 testing platforms under the MoH’s initiative to expand laboratory coverage along with advanced strategies to improve client follow-up and treatment, will help overcome these challenges.
