Episode Synopsis

This month, gastroenterologist Jessica Korman, M.D., joins us to discuss one of the more common, yet underscreened, comorbidities that an HIV care provider can encounter in their patient: anal cancer and its precursors. Korman is a co-author of the newly published ANCHOR study, which explores the value of treating (versus simply observing) high-risk, pre-cancerous anal lesions. In this episode, she shares highlights of the ANCHOR study results, analyzes their clinical implications, and talks about optimal approaches to clinician-patient conversations about anal cancer screening.
