The proposed research hypothesizes that point-of-care testing (POCT) for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) gonorrhea and chlamydia will be a feasible, acceptable, and appropriate implementation strategy for improving HIV testing and Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) delivery in youth, by increasing opportunities for clinician-patient counseling, decreasing loss to follow up, and allowing for same-day HIV prevention service provision. This hypothesis will be tested in a pragmatic non-randomized trial comparing clinical (HIV testing and PrEP counseling and prescription) and implementation (feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness) outcomes between adolescents receiving POCT compared to laboratory-based testing at three clinics within a large pediatric health system.

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the effectiveness of "TIARAS," a trauma intervention designed to reduce HIV acquisition risk among women who inject drugs (WWID). To be eligible for this study, participants must have been prescribed pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), a medication taken to prevent HIV, at Prevention Point Philadelphia, a large harm reduction agency located in Philadelphia (PA, USA), or Courage Medicine, a nonprofit health services clinic located in Philadelphia (PA, USA). Enrollment in this study lasts for 12-months so that we can see if TIARAS reduces HIV risk immediately after the intervention ends and whether these effects last over time. During the first 3 months, participants engage in contingency management (CM), an evidenced-based intervention to reduce drug use and HIV risk. We will use CM to encourage engagement in PrEP care as well as stimulant/opioid abstinence. Also during the first 3-months, participants are randomly assigned to complete expressive writing exercises to address a previously undisclosed trauma or neutral writing exercises. Half of the participants will be assigned to the trauma writing group and the other half will be assigned to the neutral writing group. To understand the impact of TIARAS on HIV risk, we will collect and analyze data from surveys, interviews, and biological specimen during the 12-month study period. Our main questions are: * Does participation in TIARAS reduce HIV risk among WWID? * If observed, how long do beneficial effects last? * How and why do WWID experience benefits from TIARAS?

The major goal of this study is to evaluate a multi-component, multilevel HIV prevention intervention that targets theoretically-informed and empirically-identified barriers to and facilitators of both HIV testing and PEP/PrEP uptake by combining existing evidence-based and novel evidence-informed components and integrating them into a community-based organization's (CBO) standard of care (SOC) PEP/PrEP navigation program. The evaluation will apply use a 2x2 factorial design to randomize and follow for 18 months 480 PrEP-eligible Black MSM (aged 18-65) living in the NYC area to one of four combinations of interventions. The impact of the social/media campaign, delivered to both geographic (print media) and Black MSM communities (social media) and launched midway through recruitment, will be assessed through assessment of timing and length of exposure as covariates in analysis.

Taking a daily anti-HIV pill can protect people from HIV infection. This is called preexposure prophylaxis \[PrEP\]. Many cisgender women and trans individuals do not know this medication is available; others struggle to take the pill every day. It is important to understand attitudes and preferences about HIV prevention options, especially as new options become available. This study plans to evaluate preferences over time among cisgender women and trans individuals who are taking medication to prevent HIV, and among cisgender women and trans individuals who are not taking medication but are at risk of HIV. The investigators enroll up to 175 participants who visit the HIV prevention clinic, and the investigators will ask participants to complete questionnaires at regular follow up visits and between visits. This study may help the investigators understand how best to prevent HIV among people at risk.

The HIV diagnosis rate among African-born Black women is the highest of all Black individuals living in the US. Correct and consistent use of condoms and use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) are two effective means of decreasing HIV risk among women, but they remain suboptimal among Black women. The specific aims of this study are: 1. To culturally adapt two widely utilized, evidence-based HIV prevention interventions originally designed for US born Black women (Sister-to-Sister (S2S) and Sisters Informing Sisters about Topics on AIDS (SISTA)) for use by African-born women 2. To conduct a randomized controlled comparative effectiveness trial (RCT) to determine the effectiveness of adapted versions of S2S versus SISTA on increasing condom use and PrEP uptake among African-born women. The adapted versions of these interventions will be given new names that resonate with the African culture. The adapted version of S2S intervention will be called "Dada Kwa Dada (DKD)" intervention while the adapted version of SISTA intervention will be called "DADA" intervention. "DADA" means "Sister" in Swahili and other languages in Eastern and Western Africa.

The goal of this this hybrid safety/implementation study is to evaluate whether using long-acting cabotegravir (CAB-LA) for HIV prevention (PrEP) is acceptable, feasible and safe in post-partum people who are breastfeeding. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Will CAB-LA injections work well as a way to prevent HIV infection in post-partum people? * Will CAB-LA injections be safe in post-partum people and their infants who will be breastfeeding? Participants without HIV who are admitted to the maternity ward after having delivered a baby will be offered to start CAB-LA PrEP. Those who choose to participate will receive their first dose (injection) at the maternity ward and their follow up doses (injections) at their local clinic when they come for routine post-partum and pediatric care. Participants and their infants will be followed in the study for 24 months. We will be following how many people come on-time for their CAB-LA injections, how often they keep coming back, and the reasons they continue (or stop) these injections. We will also test people for HIV at all of their visits to see how many people get HIV during the study. We will also measure the levels of the medication in the blood of the post-partum people and their infants (who may be getting some of the CAB-LA in breastmilk) and evaluate to see if their is any impact of CAB-LA on the health of the post-partum person or their infants.

This randomized controlled trial will test the efficacy of "PrEP for Health," a behavioral intervention to improve the use of antiretroviral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among at-risk people who inject drugs (PWID) in two syringe service program (SSP) settings in Lawrence and Boston/Cambridge, Massachusetts. The investigators will equally randomize 200 PWID to receive either (a) the "PrEP for Health" intervention condition involving theory-informed HIV and PrEP education, motivational interviewing, problem-solving and planning, and ongoing patient navigation (n=100), or (b) the standard of care condition involving PrEP information and referrals (n=100). Successful PrEP uptake (via medical/pharmacy records), post-treatment PrEP adherence (assessed at 3 months via drug levels in hair), and longer-term PrEP adherence (assessed at 6 and 12 months via drug levels in hair) will be evaluated. The degree to which intervention efficacy occurs through specific conceptual mediators and differs according to hypothesized moderators will also be evaluated.

Transgender masculine and gender diverse people who have sex with men (TMSM) have an increased risk of HIV and face unique barriers engaging in prevention services. Digitally delivered support interventions addressing HIV prevention barriers delivered by peers in one-on-one or small-group settings may be effective at increasing PrEP engagement. This study examines the independent and combined effects of individual and group-based peer-support interventions on PrEP outcomes. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive: (i) standard-of-care HIV prevention information, (ii) a one-on-one healthy lifestyle intervention tailored for transgender masculine people, (iii) a peer-group based healthy lifestyle intervention for transgender masculine people, or (iv) both the one-on-one and group-based interventions delivered together. The hypotheses are that the individual group-based interventions will result in higher PrEP uptake and persistence than the standard of care and that the combined interventions will be more effective than receiving one individual intervention.

The US opioid overdose epidemic has been accompanied by an increase in human immunodeficiency (HIV) among persons who inject drugs. HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is an FDA approved medication taken daily orally by individuals who are HIV negative, but who are at increased risk for HIV. In order to obtain PrEP, a prescription is needed. Before being prescribed HIV PrEP, it is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to obtain an HIV test first. Although home HIV self-test kits are recommended by the CDC and are locally available, uptake remains low. CHORUS+ (Comprehensive HIV, Hepatitis C, and Opioid Use Disorder Response to the Unaddressed Syndemic +) is a theory-based, peer-delivered, mobile phone-supported intervention focused on enhancing uptake and adherence to HIV PrEP (primary outcome), and continuation of MOUD (secondary outcome) among persons who inject opioids. At recruitment, the intervention will include HIV self-testing, rapid initiation of PrEP and MOUD, and 6-month peer recovery coaching (PRC) to support adherence to these medications. This research study seeks to determine the efficacy of a novel intervention to increase the uptake of evidence-based measures to prevent HIV and treat opioid use disorder. The efficacy of this multi-site, two-arm randomized control trial of CHORUS+ and usual care \[passive referral\]. This study is not testing the efficacy of PrEP or HIV home testing which is already known. In addition the investigators will determine the influence of HIV self-testing on PrEP uptake and adherence. In the CHORUS+/ intervention arm, there will be a baseline in-person session with the participant to encourage uptake of PrEP and MOUD using motivational interviewing (MI).

This is a single-arm, observational study of HIV-negative MSM with substance use disorder. Those who meet pre-screening criteria will attend a Screening Visit (Visit 1), where the informed consent process will be conducted and study eligibility will be confirmed. Eligible participants will attend three additional visits over the course of the study - the Enrollment Visit (Visit 2), Month 1 Visit (Visit 3), and Month 2 Visit (Visit 4). Participants will take one PrEP digital pill per day, for 60 days total, while using the digital pill system (DPS) and Beiwe, a digital phenotyping app. On nonadherent days, participants will receive brief surveys prompting them to report the reasons for their missed dose, as well as their engagement in substance use and sexual activity. Timeline followback will be conducted at the Month 1 and Month 2 Visits to understand the context of any nonadherence. Qualitative user experience exit interviews and dried blood spots (DBS) will be conducted at the Month 2 Visit.

Oral HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a highly effective HIV prevention modality that requires individuals to take a daily tablet to prevent themselves acquiring HIV. In South Africa while this is freely available in the public sector, persistence (that is continuation after initiation) is low amongst vulnerable populations, including men who have sex with men (MSM). This study is a feasibility and acceptability study of a behavioral economics informed intervention to improve persistence amongst MSM newly initiating PrEP in South Africa. The goal of this study is to show that this approach is possible in a routine setting and gather the necessary data for a fully powered effectiveness trial. Study participants will complete a baseline questionnaire and then be randomized to either receive standard of care (control) or to receive the intervention. The intervention package consists of evidence informed reminders, commitment pledges and planning prompts. The intervention package aims to address present bias, optimism bias and salience. The intervention is delivered and the enrollment visit and then through mobile phone reminders / text messages. There is no further in person interaction after the initial interaction. Participants may be contacted for a telephonic enplane questionnaire. Outcome data is obtained from passive followup through routine medical record review with the primary end point being persistence at 3 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Bias Reduction Training for Pharmacists Prescribing PrEP, Academic Detailing for HIV Prevention and Point-of-Care Testing for Sexually Transmitted Infections to the Power online platform.
