Résumé

Assessing the risk of cancer among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in the current era of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is crucial, given their increased susceptibility to many types of cancer and prolonged survival due to ART exposure. Our study aims to compare the association between HIV infection and specific cancer sites in Rwanda. Population-based cancer registry data were used to identify cancer cases in both PLHIV and HIV-negative persons. A probabilistic record linkage approach between the HIV and cancer registries was used to supplement HIV status ascertainment in the cancer registry. Associations between HIV infection and different cancer types were evaluated using unconditional logistic regression models. We performed several sensitivity analyses to assess the robustness of our findings and to evaluate the potential impact of different assumptions on our results. From 2007 to 2018, the cancer registry recorded 17,679 cases, of which 7% were diagnosed among PLHIV. We found significant associations between HIV infection and Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS) (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 29.1, 95% CI: 23.2-36.6), non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) (1.6, 1.3-2.0), Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) (1.6, 1.1-2.4), cervical (2.3, 2.0-2.7), vulvar (4.0, 2.5-6.5), penile (3.0, 2.0-4.5), and eye cancers (2.2, 1.6-3.0). Men living with HIV had a higher risk of anal cancer (3.1, 1.0-9.5) than men without HIV, but women living with HIV did not have higher risk than women without HIV (1.0, 0.2-4.3). Our study found that in an era of expanded ART coverage in Rwanda, HIV is associated with a broad range of cancers, particularly those linked to viral infections.
