The PrEP (Pre-exposure Prophylaxis) SMART Study

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The PrEP SMART study is testing a stepped model of scalable adherence support strategies in South African young women who initiate PrEP using a SMART (sequential multiple assignment randomized trial) design.

Clinical Trial Description

Women enrolled in the study will be randomized to standard of care adherence support (brief counseling) and either WhatsApp groups or weekly two-way SMS messages. Two months after PrEP initiation, tenofovir drug levels will be measured to determine if participants have achieved high adherence based on their initial randomization. Women with high adherence (i.e., TFV-DP >/=500 fmol/punch from dried blood spots [DBS]) will continue with the adherence support to which they were initially randomized. Participants with low adherence (i.e., TFV-DP <500 fmol/punch from DBS) will continue initial randomization (WhatsApp or two-way SMS) plus be randomized to more one of two more intensive adherence support interventions - continued monthly visits with adherence and problem-focused counseling at months 3-8 or quarterly visits between months 3-9 with feedback about adherence based on drug levels at months 3 and 6. ;
