Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Estimated)

Enrollment

624

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

  • Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

  7. Willing to be tested for HIV

Exclusion Criteria

  1. Display diminished capacity to consent because of:

    • An inability to provide informed consent (e.g., cognitive impairment)

  2. <18 years old or >54 years old
  3. Self-reported living with HIV
  4. Reactive HIV test (for "Amigx" seeds or "Yo Quiero" control participants)
  5. Refusal of HIV test
  6. Identifies as Non-Latinx
  7. Individuals enrolled in other PrEP initiation interventions
  8. Individuals with an active PrEP prescription in the last 6-months (oral or injectable)

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Prevention
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Active Comparator: I want "Yo Quiero" Control Group
Participants will receive the standard of care for up to 15-months
Other: Control group-Standard Health Promotion
Participants will receive the standard of care (beginning of the study) which includes sexual health information once in-person for up to 15 minutes for the duration of the study.
Experimental: Friend "Amigx" Social network intervention
Participant will receive a social network intervention for up to 15-months
Behavioral: Social network intervention
Participants will come to the study location for up to 2 hours three times (beginning of the study, 6-month and 12-month follow-ups) during the duration of the study. During the study, participants will receive sexual health counseling for HIV prevention. Additionally participants will receive information and resources for PrEP usage. Participants will be encouraged to share sexual health information two times (three and nine months after the beginning of the study) during the duration of the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of participants that report using PrEP
Time Frame: Up to 12-months
PrEP initiation will be measured by analyzing the number of participants that initiate PrEP divided by the total number of participants
Up to 12-months
Number of Dried Blood Spot (DBS) tests that report PrEP use
Time Frame: Up to 12-months
PrEP initiation will be measured by analyzing the number of DBS tests that report PrEP use divided by the total number of participants
Up to 12-months
Number of participants that bring a proof of PrEP prescription
Time Frame: Up to 12-months
PrEP initiation will be measured by analyzing the number of participants that bring proof of a PrEP prescription divided by the total number of participants
Up to 12-months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
PrEP knowledge measured by PrEP knowledge question
Time Frame: Up to 12-months
Scores range from 1 (I don't know) to 5 (99% or more than 99% effective). Higher scores indicate adequate PrEP knowledge.
Up to 12-months
Number of Dried Blood Spot (DBS) tests that report adequate PrEP adherence
Time Frame: Up to 12-months
PrEP adherence will be measured by analyzing the number of DBS tests that report PrEP adherence divided by the total number of participants that initiate PrEP during the study
Up to 12-months
