Official title:
Connecting Latinos en Pareja: A Couples-based HIV Prevention Intervention for Latino Male Couples
The primary objective of this proposal is to test the efficacy of Connecting Latinxs en Pareja (CLP). CLP is a four-session intervention grounded in social cognitive theory and a relationship oriented ecological framework. The investigators will examine whether participants assigned to CLP report an increase in the proportion of HIV protected anal sex acts to those assigned to a Wellness Promotion (WP) time and attention matched control condition. The primary outcome, relates to use of HIV protection.
The investigators will recruit 200 Latinx male couples (N=400 individuals) from 50 Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) jurisdictions and an additional 17 areas with high HIV burden among Latinxs. Building from our previous success in engaging sexual minority Latinx men, the investigators will implement a multipronged recruitment strategy, including social media and social networking apps and venue-based recruitment. Couples will be randomly assigned to CLP or a piloted Wellness Promotion (WP) time and attention matched control condition. Follow- up will occur every 3 months over 9 months, and biological (hair biomarkers for Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) and Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) adherence) and behavioral and psychosocial data collected. The primary outcome, HIV protection, is operationalized with a validated composite algorithm as protected acts of anal intercourse (i.e., anal sex acts in which condoms, PrEP, or Treatment as Prevention (TasP) are used to reduce risk of HIV transmission) within the couple and with outside partners. Guided by the Designing for Dissemination and Sustainability (D4DS) framework, the investigators will derive practical recommendations and considerations for sustainability and scaling up of the intervention (or other next steps). All intervention sessions will be conducted via Zoom by a facilitator. The facilitator will conduct all remote sessions from a private office at the University of Central Florida College of Medicine. Study participants will collect their own hair samples and mail it back to the University of California San Francisco. Participants will receive the collection toolkit and paid stamped mail package to ship samples. Hair sample collection is noninvasive and does not require specific skills, sterile equipment, or specialized storage. Samples can be stored at room temperature for long periods prior to analysis and shipped without taking the precautions associated with biohazardous materials. ;
