Detailed Description
Among Men who have Sex with Men (MSM) in the U.S., Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) incidence has remained highest in those less than 30 years of age, demonstrating the need for new ways to prevent HIV in Young Men who have Sex with Men (YMSM). Pre-exposure Prophylaxis or PrEP is the use of a daily medication to prevent HIV infection. In order for PrEP to work the pills must be taken, so adherence is a very important part of PrEP. Efforts to accurately assess adherence to PrEP have been hindered because participants do not always accurately report adherence and the flawed methods that have been used to measure adherence. In previous studies it has been shown that participants over-report adherence when compared to drug concentration levels in blood. Although drug-levels can be used to monitor adherence, the cost can be prohibitive and specimens may be difficult to collect in real-time. This means that better and more accurate assessments of PrEP adherence from self-reports are needed in order for PrEP to achieve wide-spread use.
This longitudinal pilot sub-study of ATN 110 and ATN 113 (Project PrEPare - An Open Label Demonstration Project and Phase II Safety Study of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Use Among Young Men Who Have Sex With Men (YMSM) in the United States) aims to assess how structural (physical settings) and partnership factors affect adherence of YMSM to PrEP. This study will compare levels of adherence reported in the Interactive Questionnaire System (iQS) to those collected in ATN 110 or ATN 113 by Audio Computer Assisted Self Interview (ACASI), Wisepill, and drug concentration levels in blood and hair. The iQS will be administered at study entry and week 24 visits. PrEP, Emtricitabine/Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Truvada®), will be administered as part of the ATN 110 and ATN 113 protocols. Study drug will not be administered as part of this study, ATN 123.

---|---|
Interactive Questionnaire System (iQS)
An Interactive Questionnaire System (iQS) will be administered twice.
First at study entry (ATN 110/113 week 24 visit) and second at week 24 (ATN 110/113 week 48 visit).
The questionnaire will assess adherence as well as how structural (physical settings) and partnership factors affect adherence of YMSM to PrEP with FTC/TDF (Truvada®).
|
ATN 123 participants will not be administered Emtricitabine /Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Truvada®) as part of the ATN 123 study, but as part of the parent studies, ATN 110 or ATN 113. In order to be eligible for ATN 123, all participants must be co-enrolled in ATN 110 or ATN 113. The only intervention for ATN 123 is the administration of the Interactive Questionnaire System (iQS), which is a new method to collect data on adherence. It will be utilized to collect adherence data across a variety of devices (i.e., computer/laptop, smartphone, tablet, etc.). Accuracy of this method will be determined; preference for this mode of data collection compared to other methods for adherence reporting used in the parent studies will be assessed.
