We will identify changes in the numbers, seriousness, and outcomes of breast cancers diagnosed during the COVID-19 pandemic, compared to before the pandemic.

This study is being done to answer the following question: Do two different anti-cancer drugs, paclitaxel (PTX) and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) have similar effects on treating KS in PLWH in sub-Saharan Africa? We are doing this study because we want to find out if one of these approaches, PTX or PLD, is better than the other for KS. Both drugs may be given as part of the usual approach for your KS. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for KS.

The purpose of this study is to lay the groundwork for a pragmatic trial and real-world implementation of Mouth Care Without a Battle (MCWB) for assisted living (AL) residents with dementia and their caregivers.
