About this study
The overarching goal of the proposed study is to determine effective outreach methods designed to recruit and improve acceptance of high-risk HIV-negative YBMSM to initiate PrEP and to identify and modify psychosocial and structural predictors of PrEP acceptance. Specifically, the objective of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of a motivational interview-based intervention designed to improve PrEP acceptance among YBMSM.
Read the detailed description
The study will occur in conjunction with standard clinical practice, which now includes offering high-risk YBMSM PrEP. If a person accepts this offer the person will be provided the service, but the person will not be asked to participate in the proposed study. Indeed, the study is designed for men who initially refuse this offer. Thus, for those who refuse researchers will offer study enrollment. For those who accept this offer and enroll, researchers will conduct baseline assessment and then randomize to I (intervention) versus C (control). Volunteers will receive the I or C condition immediately.
The intervention condition will be called MI-PrEP. This is a one-hour motivational interviewing-based, one-to-one session that will help YBMSM think more about going on PrEP. The control condition is a one-hour, theory-based, one-to-one session that will help YBMSM think more about using condoms consistently and correctly with every sex partner. This is the same program that is currently being tested at Crossroads, known as Focus on the Future. Both conditions (I and C) will include the provision of free condoms and lubricants - selected from a buffet of condoms and lubricants designed to offer men a broad selection of high quality products that can optimize the "fit and feel" of condoms during sex.
After receiving the I or C condition, researchers will collect extensive contact information for the volunteer and explain to the participant that researchers will make contact each week for the next 4 weeks, at which time researchers would like the participant to return to complete a second computer-assisted self-administered survey. Thus, approximately 4 weeks (but no later than six weeks) after study enrollment, the volunteer will return to the clinic for a second assessment. At this time, a second formal offer of PrEP by the clinician will be made (note: participants may accept the initial offer at any time up until this point). For persons accepting the offer of PrEP at this time, researchers will follow standard of care procedures and administer the PrEP. Nonetheless, this person will remain in study until 6 months has elapsed since enrollment occurred. At the conclusion of that 6-month period, blood will be collected to test for PrEP levels plus self-reported adherence measures will be collected and a follow-up computer-assisted self-interview will be given.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing MI-PrEP in people with HIV Infection, run by Richard Crosby.
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 3 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 7 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
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?
Number of Participants Who Decide to Take PrEP (time frame: 6 months). 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 7 Mar 2018.
