Evaluation of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Against HIV in Alpine Region (PrEP2A)

February 6, 2024 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Annecy Genevois

Despite the implementation of a national strategy to prevent the transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) combining prevention campaigns, condom use, early detection of HIV infections and recommendations for treatment as soon as possible, the number of new HIV-infected patients per year in France does not decrease.

New HIV prevention strategies are therefore clearly needed. Since 2009, several studies have shown that tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and emtricitabine (TDF/FTC), an antiretroviral therapy combining two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors used for the treatment of patients seropositive for HIV, has preventive activity on HIV transmission. These results enabled the TDF/FTC to obtain in France an extension of the marketing authorization in March 2017 for preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) of HIV transmission among patients at high risk of contamination.

Since the approval, many studies around the world investigate the use of PrEP in routine practice, highlighting its effectiveness in real life. These studies describe the population of patients who benefit from PrEP in order to adapt their multidisciplinary care but also track the transmission of other sexually transmitted infections to prevent their emergence, given the observed decline in condom use. However, these studies are limited to big cities while PrEP is accessible in all territories.

The Rhône-Alpes region is one of the three French regions that has been the most involved in the implementation of PrEP, one year after the FTC/TDF approval in France. Given the geographical position of the investigators, both in province and close to Switzerland, where the FTC/TDF is not authorized for PrEP, and the non-university nature of five of the six involved hospitals, the investigators would like to determine the profile of patients consulting in this region to benefit from PrEP. This analysis will also determine if the population at risk of the "Alpine Arc" region is similar to that observed in the other cohorts in order to adapt patient care.

Conditions

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients in care, at high risk of HIV infection, according to the criteria defined by the French Ministery Of Health for the use of FTC / TDF in PreP (men who have sex with men, transgender, heterosexual women migrants or not, sex workers (sexual intercourse in exchange for money, drugs, housing, food), intravenous drug users) HIV-negative, exposed by their sexual practices to a high risk of HIV infection.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient having initiated or wishing to initiate PrEP according to the recommendations of the French High Authority of Health in the centers involved in the collection of data
  • Patient informed of the study and having indicated his non opposition for the collection of his health data

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Wardship patient
  • Patient under curatorship
  • Patient unable to give his non-opposition to the use of his health data

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Patients in care, at high risk of HIV infection
Patients in care, at high risk of HIV infection, according to the criteria defined by the French Ministry Of Health for the use of FTC / TDF in PreP (men who have sex with men, transgender, heterosexual women migrants or not, sex workers (sexual intercourse in exchange for money, drugs, housing, food), intravenous drug users) HIV-negative, exposed by their sexual practices to a high risk of HIV infection.
Other: Questionnaire
A questionnaire should be completed by the patient the day of inclusion. Health data will be collected in patients medical file from inclusion to the date of the end of study (i.e. no follow-up for the last patient included and a maximum of three years of follow-up for the first patient included).
