Clinical Trial Summary

Acceptability of a PrEP program among MSM and TG visiting a geolocated community application or a community physical place of sociability and having accepted a targeted screening for HIV, Hepatitis B, C and STIs.


Description:

HIV infection is a transmissible infection that remains a major public health concern in 2021, with an estimated 38.4 million people living with HIV worldwide and around 2.5 million new infections. Despite therapeutic progress, wide access to screening, in France in particular, HIV infection continues to spread among the populations most exposed to this virus. In France, 5,000 people discovered their HIV seropositivity in 2021. 44% of them are men who have sex with men (MSM), of whom more than a quarter (27%) were born abroad. 2% of new diagnoses concern transgender people2. Nearly half of people who discover their HIV status live in Paris and Île de France. The incidence of HIV infection remains high among the key population of men who have sex with men. That of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is increasing with more frequent screening, in particular with the introduction of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). A national assessment in 2022 shows that PrEP remains mainly used by MSM, urban, educated and economically advantaged. The large number of new HIV infections each year among MSM encourages the identification of preventive actions to go to those who do not protect themselves from HIV by PrEP, do not screen themselves for STIs. Strategies for screening and prevention of STIs and HIV must be massively encouraged and facilitated by various innovative approaches. It is important to reach out to populations who rarely see caregivers for various reasons such as social/administrative vulnerability, psychological vulnerability, non-disclosure of conditions of sexual exposure (sex workers, MSM) . The various studies show that about 40% of MSM do not report their sexual orientation to their general practitioner, and find themselves faced with a presumption of heterosexuality in the primary care system. The 190 center is the first sexual health center created in France, in 2010. Since then, it has continued to develop expertise in Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans (LGBT+) health and, more particularly, geared towards gay health. It is one of the main centers to have implemented PrEP, as part of a range of care combining screening and treatment of STIs, specialized monitoring of HIV infection, management of the mental health of users, support for users of psychoactive products in a sexual context (Chemsex He opened THE ANTENNA in the premises of SPOT with the aim of developing innovative strategies in partnership with community guides. The AIDES association, created in 1984, is one of the most important associations in the fight against HIV in the world, and the main one in France. It has developed many strategies, largely based on the knowledge that people most at risk/concerned by HIV-AIDS have of their communities. AIDES has opened Le SPOT in Paris, a free reception center for sexual health and harm reduction, primarily targeting an MSM population highly vulnerable to HIV infection or viral hepatitis. Combining the activities of SPOT and L'ANTENNE makes it possible to combine the know-how of a place of community intervention and, beyond that, of the employees and volunteers of the AIDES association, with the practice of caring for a sexual health center that is today a reference in its field of expertise. The two structures focus their development on the implementation of new actions aimed at reducing the hidden epidemic of HIV infection and viral hepatitis. The clinical research team of the Infectious Diseases department has extensive historical experience in HIV, invested in clinical research since the 1990s, and experience acquired in sexual health (PrEP, STI) with participation in studies national ANRS PREVENIR, DOXYVAC, Ganymede. In total, taking into account the data from different studies, taking into account our respective experiences and know-how, we postulate the following hypotheses: 1. MSM and TG community dating applications and places of sociability constitute an interface of great interest for reaching an audience that does not spontaneously go to places of care adapted to their specificities in terms of health risk vis-à-vis -vis HIV and STIs. 2. The experience of the community guides, employees or volunteers, of the AIDES association makes it possible to recruit, on these applications and places, the public sought following spear-phishing strategies. 3. The screening proposal as it is designed (use of Rapid Diagnostic Orientation Tests for serological screening, bacteriological self-sampling with dematerialized rendering), responds well to a request from these users who, in fact, do not would not use mainstream offerings or places identified as offering and prescribing PrEP. 4. Through an "all-in-one" facilitated screening proposal, in a single place, free of charge, without an appointment, with immediate results, it becomes possible to bring users who would be remote, through ignorance, lack of interest, or because of negative representations of the tool or the related monitoring. Based on a conversion rate of 3% of contacts into appointments, the objective of 24,333 contacts over one year is realistic given the difference in population density between the Center Val de Loire region (65, 7 inhabitants per km2) and the Île-de-France region (1020.8 inhabitants per km2). This is an observational, prospective study, over 6 months, offering MSM and TG attending a geolocated community application or a community physical place of sociability, targeted screening for HIV infection, hepatitis B, C and STIs and their management in the PrEP strategy and treatment/prevention of STIs adapted to the results.
