Filter by:DREAM-03 is an early phase-1, open label study to compare the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and acceptability of 3 sequences of tenofovir (TFV) and non-medicated douches. The overall goal is to inform the design of an extended safety study of an on-demand and behaviorally congruent TFV douche to confer protection from HIV acquisition in an outpatient pre-RAI context.
The objective of this study is to compare and evaluate two strategies of delivering PrEP and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) treatment to people who inject drugs to determine the best method of providing care. Participants will be randomized to one of two treatment arms: on-site integrated care or off-site referral to specialized care.
The investigators aim to 1) speed up access to and delivery of PrEP to young women, and 2) compare interventions to support and maximize the prevention-effective use of PrEP. Specifically, the investigators aim to answer the following two questions: 1) how can the study use existing community-based platforms to identify and deliver PrEP to those in need? and 2) which adherence support interventions are most likely to engender effective use of PrEP? The investigators propose to answer these questions by leveraging existing community-based HIV testing platforms in South Africa and use a mixed methods approach to optimize the PrEP cascade and evaluate a community-based PrEP adherence program for young women.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the acceptability and performance of a directly assisted oral HIV self-testing (HIVST) program in a youth population aged 14-24 in Nigeria. The study is oral HIV self-testing (HIVST) program in a youth population aged 14-24 in Nigeria. The study is focused on assessing young people's ability to correctly perform the test.
Transgender women (TW) have unique challenges related to HIV prevention medication adherence. Left unaddressed, these challenges will prevent TW from accessing the promising long-acting HIV prevention tools in the development pipeline. This study will develop a replicable process to tailor the delivery of these tools and an adherence intervention (that will include an mHealth app) to the needs of TW, using the example of inert injectable cabotegravir. Work builds on a pilot study to identify tailored methods to deliver injectable cabotegravir in TW, such as self-injection and injection by a healthcare provider at at "drop-in" clinic. The investigators will use qualitative methods (e.g., interviews, group discussions called "Design Sessions") to design the adherence intervention and the mHealth app. Then, investigators will execute a partially randomized patient-preference trial to determine if TW are able to use tailored injection strategies (self-injection or injection by a healthcare provider at "drop-in clinics") to improve adherence, compared to a control group of TW who will engage a protocol based on HPTN-083/084. This will serve as a "proof of concept" for the future R01 that will test this on a larger scale. Research and training will take place at NYSPI/Columbia, in affiliation with, 1) Project AFFIRM, a study of transgender identity (R01HD079603; PI: Bockting), that will provide infrastructure for critical research activities (e.g., recruitment), and 2) SLAP-HIV, a clinical trial to produce a long-acting form of cabotegravir (e.g., injection; UM1 AI120184; PI: Hope). SLAP-HIV will provide clinical oversight (e.g., ensure tailored delivery strategies are feasible).
In this mixed-methods research study, the study team will offer comprehensive safer conception services to 150 HIV-uninfected women reporting an HIV-infected or high-risk partner and personal or partner plans for pregnancy in rural Uganda to evaluate prevalence and determinants of uptake and adherence (tenofovir plasma concentration >40ng/mL, opening pill device to take >80% of dispensed pills) to PrEP and other safer conceptions strategies among Ugandan women exposed to HIV.
Many men living with HIV (MLWH) want to have children. HIV-RNA suppression can minimize sexual HIV transmission risks while allowing for conception. The study will evaluate a safer conception intervention that leverages men's motivations to have healthy babies in order to promote serostatus disclosure and early ART initiation. The intervention is based on the investigators' Safer Conception Conceptual Framework, which considers individual, dyadic, and structural factors that affect periconception risk behavior.
DatAIDS prevention is a cohort study of HIV prevention in over 23 HIV sites in France including overseas, aiming to describe HIV prevention in every aspect including HIV screening, STI and hepatitis screening, post-exposure prophylaxis and pre-exposure prophylaxis
A randomized controlled clinical trial looking at the effect of use of a mobile phone application in addition to standard care compared to standard care alone at a youth-friendly clinic in young men who have sex with men and transgender women aged between 15-19 years at risk of HIV on PrEP adherence.
The researchers are working with a technology company, AiCure, to develop a smartphone app, DOT Diary, which combines two drug adherence strategies. DOT Diary reminds people when it is time to take their medication, and uses motion-sensing technology to visually and automatically confirm the pill was swallowed. The goal of this study is to assess the impact of the app on adherence to HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for the prevention of HIV.
