Opioid dependent persons in pharmacotherapy in NSW are at increased risk of death from cancer. We will examine the occurrence of infection with hepatitis and HIV among this high-risk population using data linkage. We will define the relationship between infection, the duration, frequency and type of pharmacotherapy, and cancer risk. The findings will guide effective strategies that will reduce cancer incidence and mortality among this group, and minimise the associated health care costs.

在新南威尔士州，接受药物治疗的阿片类药物依赖者死于癌症的风险增加。我们将使用数据链接来检查这一高危人群中肝炎和HIV感染的发生率。我们将定义感染、药物治疗的持续时间、频率和类型与癌症风险之间的关系。研究结果将指导有效的策略，降低这一群体的癌症发病率和死亡率，并最大限度地减少相关的医疗保健费用。
