A Multilevel Gaming Intervention for Persons on PrEP
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating IMB Gaming Intervention for MSM and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 82 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study will develop and test a novel, smartphone based gaming intervention to improve adherence to medication to prevent HIV (known as Pre-exposure Prophylaxis, PrEP) and to decrease HIV risk behaviors among men who have sex with men (MSM). In the intervention, participants will engage with an immersive app/game on their iPhone. While gaming, participants will gain information about their health, improve motivation for PrEP and medical appointment adherence, and practice healthy behaviors. If the intervention is found to be effective, it can be tested in a larger study and then disseminated to other people taking PrEP.
