Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: HIV+ PrePex
PrePex male circumcision device
|
PrePex non-surgical male circumcision device applied to eligible, consenting HIV-infected men in Zimbabwe to determine the rate of adverse events as compared to non HIV-infected men.
|
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Rate of adverse events among HIV+ males using PrePex device
Time Frame: Device application through complete wound healing (up to 90 days)
|
The primary safety endpoint is the incidence of clinical adverse events and device-related incidents.
Note: This list of AEs is not exhaustive. Severity of AE will be determined according to PEPFAR/OGAC guidelines |
Device application through complete wound healing (up to 90 days)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pain assessment at key time points
Time Frame: Placement through complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
|
Placement through complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
Abstinence until complete wound healing
Time Frame: Post placement through complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
Survival analysis of the timing of resumed sexual activity among subjects
|
Post placement through complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
Factors associated with abstinence until complete wound healing
Time Frame: Post placement through complete healing (approximately 90 days for men who participate in the qualitative component)
|
Patient factors (knowledge, attitudes) associated with abstinence from sex until wound healing is complete
|
Post placement through complete healing (approximately 90 days for men who participate in the qualitative component)
|
Time to complete healing
Time Frame: Device placement through complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
Mean of days for complete healing (continuous measure) and factors associated with number of days to complete healing (continuous outcome - multiple linear regression)
|
Device placement through complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
Cosmetic results
Time Frame: At complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
|
At complete healing (up to 90 days)
|
Patient satisfaction
Time Frame: 3 time points: Prior to the procedure, two weeks post-procedure, and 90 days post-procedure Device placement through ~90 days post procedure
|
A composite measure created among patients involved in the qualitative component who will be asked about satisfaction with the PrePex™ MC procedure, barriers and motivators to uptake of VMMC through PrePex™, opinions around convenience of the device, tolerance of potential odour and whether participants would recommend PrePex™ MC to others.
|
3 time points: Prior to the procedure, two weeks post-procedure, and 90 days post-procedure Device placement through ~90 days post procedure
|
Patient daily life
Time Frame: 3 time points: Prior to the procedure, two weeks post-procedure, and 90 days post-procedure Device placement through ~90 days post procedure
|
Patients involved in the qualitative component will be asked about activities of daily living restrictions.
They will complete a brief form that includes listing of activities of daily living, whether they are interrupted and for how long.
This includes the average number of lost working hours (or potential working hours in unemployed).
A composite measure will be created.
