Evaluation of the PrePex Device for Rapid Scale-up of VMMC, Phase 3 Field Implementation Trial With HIV + Adult Males

HIV Seropositivity Clinical Trial

Official title:
Evaluation of Safety, Efficacy and Acceptability of the PrePexTM Device for Rapid Scale-up of Adult Male Circumcision Programs in Zimbabwe, Phase III PrePexTM Field Implementation Trial With HIV Positive Adult Males

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will assess the safety of the PrePex device as applied to HIV positive men by assessing the rate of clinical adverse events. The study will include adult, HIV + men who are eligible to receive the PrePex procedure per the Zimbabwe Ministry of Health and Child Care (MOHCC) eligibility criteria.

Clinical Trial Description

According to mathematical modeling, Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC) has the potential to have a major impact on reducing HIV incidence in areas with high HIV prevalence and low prevalence of male circumcision, as is the case in Zimbabwe. Male circumcision devices have the potential to accelerate VMMC scale-up as the procedure is faster and simpler and can be safely performed by nurses. However, fear of social stigma and desire to avoid HIV testing remain potential barriers to those HIV+ men who would otherwise seek out VMMC. Study subjects (n=400) are HIV+ males who elect to undergo VMMC with PrePex as a study subject, and healthcare workers involved in implementation of PrePex on HIV+ male subjects. The aim of the study is to determine if PrePex can be used safely among HIV+ men with similar rates of adverse events to HIV-uninfected men. If so, then the barrier of mandatory HIV testing as part of VMMC could be removed, encouraging more men to undergo the procedure. Determining PrePex safety in HIV+ men would also allow both those with unknown status and those with positive status to undergo MC with PrePex. Determining the barriers to performing VMMC among HIV+ men among healthcare workers, if any, would also inform future policy. ;
