Feasibility of Short-Term PrEP Uptake for MSM With Episodic High-Risk for HIV
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating emtricitabine/tenofovir and CBT-based counseling for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. Completed, enrolled 54 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This study is designed to investigate the acceptability, perceived need and uptake of short-term episodic Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention among men who have sex with men (MSM). The overall objective is to determine the feasibility of a clinic-based Epi-PrEP implementation pilot project for 50 MSM (25/each of the 2 study sites) who report occasional condomless sex and who anticipate a period of high-risk while away from home (e.g. vacation) during the study period.
