Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a pilot test of enhancements to the standard of care for providing PrEP in Ugandan fishing communities. The specific aims are to conduct a mixed-methods study assessing enhancements to the standard of care for providing PrEP in fisherfolk communities in Lake Victoria, Uganda.


Clinical Trial Description

The study will take place at two landing sites at which PrEP is provided to fisherfolk through the national PrEP program. The control site will administer the standard of care for PrEP provision through the national program. At the intervention site, the investigators will implement a three-pronged intervention: 1. During healthcare outreach events we will conduct PrEP workshops, in which people who want to know more about PrEP can learn basic facts about PrEP and also can be taught skills about how to advocate for PrEP in their community. 2. Check-in Calls: To support PrEP adherence, healthcare workers will call PrEP users regularly (e.g., two weeks after initiation, and the week before refill events), to check in about any questions and to remind them of the next date and place to pick up refills. Calls after PrEP initiation will ask about side effects. 3. To support PrEP adherence, healthcare workers will encourage PrEP users to select an adherence supporter, who is a family member or friend to whom they disclose their PrEP use. The adherence supporter agrees to remind them to adhere to PrEP and get refills. Healthcare workers will ask the PrEP user for the name and contact information for the adherence supporter, so that the adherence supporter can be contacted to remind them about refills, as well as if the PrEP user does not show up for a refill. ;
