CERVICAL CANCER
Evidence presented in this study suggests that a catch-up HPV screening intervention could potentially improve cervical cancer prevention in women aged ≥65. Going forward, longer follow-up of the screened women will show if the intervention results in fewer cervical cancer cases and deaths.Policy makers should consider whether HPV catch-up screening interventions should be differentiated depending on previous screening participation and results to reach an appropriate cost-benefit balance.
