Couples Clinical Trial
Official title:
Project Nexus: Providing Online Counseling for Home-Based HIV Testing
The proposed research aims to address the question: Compared to the current standard of care for home-based HIV tests, in which persons conduct and interpret HIV tests without counseling, does the addition of video conferencing with a remote counselor increase health-enhancing, protective behaviors among male-male couples and facilitate linkage to care for those who test positive?
The investigators propose to address four specific aims through a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to take place over a four-year period. The investigators plan to enroll and maintain a cohort of 350 men who have sex with men (MSM) couples: 175 self-reported concordant HIV-negative and 175 self-reported HIV-discordant couples. Within this sample, the proposed study will examine the impact of home-testing with video-based Couples HIV Testing and Counseling (CHTC) (intervention) versus home-testing alone (control) on changes in: sexual risk-taking (e.g., UAI), formation and adherence to explicit agreements about sex, relationship functioning for the management of HIV risk, and linkage to care for newly diagnosed HIV positives among MSM couples who live throughout the US. To assess these specific changes, couples will complete online surveys at 3 time points (baseline, 3 months and 6 months). ;
