Context
• In sub-Saharan Africa, mortality and morbidity of HIVinfected people are mainly mediated by opportunistic
infections, however:
– With ART scale-up, cancer will soon substantially contribute to
disease burden of Africans with HIV as already observed in highresource countries
– Etiologic factors interacting with HIV infection and leading to the
occurrence of cancers are quite different
• Need to provide an overview of the intersection between
the cancer and the HIV epidemics in sub-Saharan Africa
2
Objective
Estimate the association between HIV infection
and selected types of cancers among patients
hospitalized for a malignant condition in four
West African countries
3
Methods (1)
Study design & population (1)
• A case-referent study was initiated in referral hospitals of Côte
d’Ivoire (Abidjan) and Benin (Cotonou) and subsequently
extended to Togo (Lome) and Nigeria (Abuja, Benin City)
4
Methods (2)
Study design & population
• During a 12-month period, each participating clinical
ward selected all adult patients seeking care with a
confirmed diagnosis of cancer
– Histological examination systematically proposed (supported by the
project)
– Included patients interviewed to collect socio-demographic (age,
gender, place of living..) & behavioural data (sexual & reproductive
life)
– Systematic HIV testing: Determine® + confirmation (Genie 2®)
5
Methods (3)
Analysis
• HIV prevalence reported for selected types of cancer
– AIDS-defining (Kaposi Sarcoma, Non Hodgkin lymphoma & Invasive
cervical cancer)
– A subset of non-AIDS defining cancers (known or suspected to be linked
with HIV infection from previous reports)
• Compared to a referent group of cancers not reported in the
literature to be associated with HIV
– Colorectal, Oesophagus, Gastric, Breast, Ovary, Endometrium, Prostate,
Kidney, Bladder & urinary ducts, Endocrine tumours
• Odds ratio (OR) [95% CI] estimated for these selected cancers
using an unconditional logistic model

Discussion (1)
• AIDS-defining cancers are strongly associated with HIV
infection and are leading causes of cancer in West Africa
• A significant association is now reported between HIV
infection and some Non-AIDS defining cancers including
cancers of the ano-genital organs and squamous cell skin
cancer
• Concordant with previous findings from South Africa based
on the same methodological approach (Stein et al, Int J Cancer 2008)
– Ano-genital cancers: OR=2.2 (95% CI 1.4–3.3)
– Squamous cell skin cancer: OR=2.6 (95% CI 1.4–4.9)
11
Discussion (2)
• Association between HIV and primary liver cancer
• Concordant with results reported from linkage studies
in high-resource settings
• Limitations
- Sample size
- No standardized case definition of hepatocarcinoma
- Risk factors such as chronic viral hepatitis not recorded
• Need to conduct dedicated case-control studies
• Ongoing project: “HIV and hepatocarcinoma in Benin,
Côte d’Ivoire, Mali & Togo”
12
Conclusions
• The study provided a rather representative and precise
picture of the association between AIDS-defining cancers
and HIV infection in West Africa
• HPV-related cancers including cervical cancer but also anogenital cancer and squamous cell skin cancer are reported
here as leading causes of malignancies in people living with
HIV
• As these cancers are amenable to prevention strategies,
screening of HPV-related cancers among persons living with
HIV is of paramount importance in West Africa
