N2 - Whether poor virologic control is associated with incident cancers after initiation of combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) remains unclear. In a large cohort, time-updated HIV RNA levels ≥1,000 copies/ml predicted AIDS-defining cancers (ADCs), non-AIDS-defining cancers (NADCs), and skin cancers. Virologic control may be an important strategy in reducing cancer events among HIV-infected persons.
