Biobehavioral Interventions for HIV-negative Methamphetamine-using MSM
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Truvada and CM for Amphetamine-Related Disorders and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 53 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study seeks to decrease methamphetamine use and concomitant high-risk sexual behaviors among methamphetamine-using men who have sex with men (MSM) by combining a biomedical intervention with a behavioral intervention. The behavioral intervention will consist of an 8-week course of contingency management (CM) through which participants will be reinforced for testing negative for methamphetamine metabolites during periodic urine analyses. The biomedical intervention involves a 28-day course of an antiretroviral drug (Truvada) to be administered after an unanticipated HIV risk exposure (i.e., engaging in either receptive or insertive anal sex without a condom with someone who is HIV-positive or of unknown status). In combining these two interventions, this study seeks to evaluate the combined intervention's effects on sexual risk behaviors and methamphetamine use.

Interventions
At qualifying exposure, participants will take 28 days' worth (at one pill per day) of 200 mg emtricitabine and 300 mg tenofovir DF (Truvada).
Participants will submit a urine sample every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for 8 weeks (a total of 24 urine samples). Samples will be tested for methamphetamine metabolites.
