SAIA-HIV-SSP Trial Summary

This trial aims to assess if a strategy to improve HIV service delivery in US syringe services programs is effective and cost-efficient.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for organizations within the US, its territories, or Tribal Nations that run syringe service programs (SSPs) offering sterile syringes to drug users and have recently provided HIV counseling and testing. It's not specified who can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an organizational strategy called SAIA-HIV-SSP aimed at improving HIV services in SSPs. It compares this approach with usual implementation over a period of 21 months to see if it increases HIV testing rates and is cost-effective.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on implementing a service delivery strategy rather than a medical intervention, traditional side effects are not applicable.

SAIA-HIV-SSP Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: SAIA-HIV-SSPExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
SAIA-HIV-SSP is an intervention that facilitates an organizational, SSP-level analysis of the delivery of HIV services by assigning a trained SAIA specialist to apply tools and techniques and engage staff to define barriers, identify solutions, and evaluate their success in cycles until achieving desired change regarding HIV service delivery. The scientific premise of this RCT is that SAIA will effectively boost and extend HIV service delivery cascades within SSPs assigned to the SAIA-HIV-SSP intervention condition (relative to IAU). SAIA specialists will meet with SSP staff biweekly for the first 3 months and then once monthly for the remaining 9 months during the 12-month intervention period.
Group II: Implementation as usualActive Control1 Intervention
SSPs randomized to the IAU arm will not receive support from a SAIA specialist. Though many SSPs in the US already offer HIV services, the investigators are testing the ability of SAIA-HIV-SSP to optimize the delivery of HIV services within SSPs. As such, the IAU condition is characterized by the absence of SAIA-HIV-SSP with the goal of comparing whether SAIA-HIV-SSP improves SSPs' HIV service delivery cascades.
