About this study

Official title: Acceptability and Feasibility of a Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Trial With Young Men Who Have Sex With Men (YMSM)

This is an exploratory mixed-methods research study that compares an efficacious behavioral HIV-prevention intervention (3MV) alone to the behavioral HIV-prevention intervention combined with a biomedical intervention (PrEP). After completing the 3MV behavioral intervention, participants will be randomly assigned to one of three study arms: 1) daily FTC/TDF as PrEP, 2) placebo pill control, or 3) "no pill" control. Behavioral and biomedical data will be collected at baseline and every 4 weeks thereafter for 24 weeks. Youth who decline to participate will be asked to complete a brief survey about their opinions on PrEP. Qualitative interviews will be completed with six study participants and the study coordinators at the end of the trial to explore further the issues of trial acceptability and feasibility. Finally, focus groups will be conducted to explore feasibility and acceptability issues with YMSM who meet all eligibility requirements of the study except for not being age 18 or older, but are at least 16 years of age.

  15. Number of Missed Doses Based on Self-Report Calendar Data-Week 4

    Missed doses were calculated as the number of days between the date that subject came in for their current visit and the last date the subject was dispensed medication minus the total number of days the subject records having taken their medication in the last 31 days based on self-report calendar data. Since each subject is given a 30 day supply of medication at each visit, any days after 30 days are assumed to be missed medication days and are included in the total. Participants were taking only one dose per day and thus, the number of missed doses is the same as the number of missed medication days.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  16. Number of Missed Doses Based on Self-Report Calendar Data-Week 8

    Missed doses were calculated as the number of days between the date that subject came in for their current visit and the last date the subject was dispensed medication minus the total number of days the subject records having taken their medication in the last 31 days based on self-report calendar data. Since each subject is given a 30 day supply of medication at each visit, any days after 30 days are assumed to be missed medication days and are included in the total. Participants were taking only one dose per day and thus, the number of missed doses is the same as the number of missed medication days.

    Measured: Week 8

  17. Number of Missed Doses Based on Self-Report Calendar Data-Week 12

    Missed doses were calculated as the number of days between the date that subject came in for their current visit and the last date the subject was dispensed medication minus the total number of days the subject records having taken their medication in the last 31 days based on self-report calendar data. Since each subject is given a 30 day supply of medication at each visit, any days after 30 days are assumed to be missed medication days and are included in the total. Participants were taking only one dose per day and thus, the number of missed doses is the same as the number of missed medication days.

    Measured: Week 12

  18. Number of Missed Doses Based on Self-Report Calendar Data-Week 16

    Missed doses were calculated as the number of days between the date that subject came in for their current visit and the last date the subject was dispensed medication minus the total number of days the subject records having taken their medication in the last 31 days based on self-report calendar data. Since each subject is given a 30 day supply of medication at each visit, any days after 30 days are assumed to be missed medication days and are included in the total. Participants were taking only one dose per day and thus, the number of missed doses is the same as the number of missed medication days.

    Measured: Week 16

  19. Number of Missed Doses Based on Self-Report Calendar Data-Week 20

    Missed doses were calculated as the number of days between the date that subject came in for their current visit and the last date the subject was dispensed medication minus the total number of days the subject records having taken their medication in the last 31 days based on self-report calendar data. Since each subject is given a 30 day supply of medication at each visit, any days after 30 days are assumed to be missed medication days and are included in the total. Participants were taking only one dose per day and thus, the number of missed doses is the same as the number of missed medication days.

    Measured: Week 20

  20. Number of Missed Doses Based on Self-Report Calendar Data-Week 24

    Missed doses were calculated as the number of days between the date that subject came in for their current visit and the last date the subject was dispensed medication minus the total number of days the subject records having taken their medication in the last 31 days based on self-report calendar data. Since each subject is given a 30 day supply of medication at each visit, any days after 30 days are assumed to be missed medication days and are included in the total. Participants were taking only one dose per day and thus, the number of missed doses is the same as the number of missed medication days.

    Measured: Week 24

  21. Number of Missed Doses Over Time Based on Self-Report Calendar Data

    The outcome measure presents the least square means from the generalized linear model. The outcome here is a binary variable that determines whether the subject missed a dose or not. In a binomial model with logit link, the least squares means are predicted population margins of the logits.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  22. Number of Missed Doses Based on Medication Refill Dates-Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing coformulated emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) as PrEP and Many Men, Many Voices (3MV) in people with HIV, run by University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Mar 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Actual Number of Study Visits Completed by 24 Weeks (time frame: 24 weeks). The study lists 89 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Apr 2017.
