Testing an Electronic Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Initiation and Maintenance Home Care System to Promote PrEP Among Adolescent Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM) in Rural and Small Town Areas
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating ePrEP for Pre-exposure Prophylaxis. Completed, enrolled 217 participants across 4 sites.
Detailed Summary
The premise for the study is that a tailored approach for rural young men who have sex with men (YMSM), addressing known barriers of transportation, access to providers, and privacy, is most likely to yield high levels of Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) initiation and persistence in care.
