HIV Clinical Trial - Optimizing HIV Virologic Outcomes for Pregnant Women

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The ENHANCED -SPS study is a before and after cluster randomized trial that will be conducted in 14 public health facilities providing HIV care in Southwestern Uganda. The study will evaluate the effectiveness of a multi-component intervention package that targets barriers to achieving optimal viral suppression among pregnant and postpartum women infected with HIV. This will be in two phases; In Phase 1 ("Before"), all 14 clinics will have a baseline assessment of standard of care VL procedures and assess the barriers and facilitators to viral suppression for a period of 3 months. In Phase 2 ("After"), 7 clinics randomized to control arm will continue to experience standard of care counseling procedures, and 7 clinics randomized to intervention will initiate the ENHANCE-PS intervention. The Phase 2 ("After") phase I will last at least 12 months.

Clinical Trial Description

The Investigators will test the hypothesis that the Enhanced viral load (VL) counseling and standardized peer mother support (ENHANCED-SPS) intervention will increase viral load suppression among HIV-infected pregnant and post-partum women and increase retention of mothers in care hence resulting in reduced risk of vertical transmission in south western Uganda.

Specific objectives are as follows:

1) To evaluate the effectiveness of an enhanced VL counseling and standardized peer mother support intervention on viral suppression among HIV infected pregnant women at 12 months of follow up; 2) To evaluate the effect of the enhanced counseling and peer support intervention on retention in care at 18 months postpartum follow up; The investigators will randomize 14 HIV clinics to the ENHANCED-SPS multi-component intervention vs. standard of care procedures (intervention=7 clinics and control=7 clinics,n=70 mothers/health facility) ;3) To assess the facilitators and barriers of VL and enhanced VL counseling and peer mother support intervention at 9 & 18 months of follow up.This will consider both patient and providers perspectives of the intervention implementation ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
