Official title:
IGHID 12001 - The Development of a Mobile-based App to Increase Uptake of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) by Men Who Have Sex With Men in China
This study aims to use a mini-application on the popular Chinese social media mobile platform, WeChat, to improve HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake among at-risk men who have sex with men (MSM). UNC investigators will work in close partnership with a well-established HIV special hospital and the local MSM community to understand key barriers to PrEP use, and develop a mobile-based intervention to increase PrEP uptake among young MSM in Guangzhou, China.
This study includes two parts. Before the start of Part 1, a mini-app prototype for promoting HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake will have been developed from a prior MSM community-driven hackathon contest. PrEP is an antiretroviral medicines-based prevention strategy against HIV infection, which has been proved save and effective. Part 1 includes in-depth interviews with 40 HIV-negative young MSM (18 and above) with a brief survey to collect demographic data. The interview topics include PrEP-related perceptions and feedback on the design of a mini-app prototype. Findings from Part 1 will inform refining the mini-app before the start of Part 2. In Part 2, a small two-arm randomized control trial with 70 young MSM (18 and above) will be conducted to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the mini-app in improving PrEP-related perceptions and actual PrEP uptake, compared to a control group of standard of care. Participants in Part 2 will be followed up for 12 weeks (8 week intervention and after-intervention follow-up at 12th week). A subgroup of participants (n=15) from both the intervention arm and the control arm will receive two rounds of in-depth interviews, separately at the 4th and 8th week, to share their experience of using the app and changed perceptions and/or behaviors related to PrEP. ;
