About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a Harm Reduction Treatment for Methamphetamine-Using Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM)

This treatment outcome evaluation of the Stonewall Project will recruit 150 participants to complete a face-to-face assessment visit at baseline, 3-month follow-up, and 6-month follow-up to examine treatment outcome with respect to HIV risk and substance use.

Read the detailed description

Stonewall Project clients who have initiated treatment within the past 60 days will be eligible for the outcome evaluation. 20% of clients are likely to be on parole or probation; these clients will be eligible to participate in the study.

Outcome measures that will be examined as part of the treatment outcome evaluation include: 1) self-reported substance use; 2) urine toxicology screening; and 3) sex risk taking.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. stimulant use (measured via self-report and urine toxicology screening)

    Participants will complete a self-report measure that assesses substance use during the past month. We will examine the total number of days that stimulants (cocaine, crack, or methamphetamine) were used during the past month. We will also conduct urine toxicology screening to determine whether participants test positive for cocaine or methamphetamine metabolites at each study visit. This is an objective measure of recent stimulant use (i.e., during the past 72 hours).

    Measured: 3 and 6 month follow-ups

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. sexual risk taking

    Sexual risk taking will be assessed using a measure that allows our team to examine risk as a function of HIV status, partner type (i.e., insertive or receptive), and whether the participant was under the influence of methamphetamine. Sex risk for HIV-negative men will be defined as any unprotected anal intercourse, irrespective of the HIV serostatus of sex partners. Sex risk for HIV-positive men will be defined as unprotected anal intercourse with HIV-negative or unknown serostatus partners.

    Measured: 3 and 6 month follow-ups

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Stonewall Project in people with Substance Abuse and HIV Infections, run by University of California, San Francisco 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 27 Oct 2014. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

stimulant use (measured via self-report and urine toxicology screening) (time frame: 3 and 6 month follow-ups). 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 27 Oct 2014.
