Non–AIDS‐Defining Cancer Incidence in People With HIV in Milan, Italy, 2000–2023: Temporal Trends and Comparison With the General Population

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with HIV (PWH) are living longer, but contemporary data on non–AIDS‐defining cancers (NADCs) in Italy remain limited. We assessed incident cancers in a retrospective cohort of PWH in Milan, Italy, between January 2000 and December 2023. Follow‐up was grouped into 2000–2007, 2008–2015, and 2016–2023. Incidence rates (IRs) were calculated
