Microbicide/PrEP Acceptability Among Mothers and Male Partners in Africa (MAMMA)

13 octobre 2022 mis à jour par: Microbicide Trials Network

Qualitative Assessment of Acceptability of Vaginal Ring (VR) and Oral Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Use During Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

The MTN-041 study is a multi-site exploratory study using focus group discussions (FGDs) and in-depth interviews (IDIs) to identify individual, interpersonal, social and cultural factors that may affect potential uptake of two safe and effective HIV prevention products, the monthly dapivirine (DPV) vaginal ring (VR) and daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), by pregnant and breastfeeding women in Africa.

Aperçu de l'étude

Description détaillée

MTN-041 is an exploratory study primarily designed to identify individual, interpersonal, social and cultural factors that may affect potential uptake of two safe and effective HIV prevention products, the monthly DPV VR and daily oral PrEP, in a vulnerable yet seldom-studied population, pregnant and breastfeeding women. MTN-041 will utilize FGDs and IDIs to elicit community and health professional perceptions about vaginal practices, sexual activity, use of medicines, and HIV risk during pregnancy or breastfeeding, including how these perceptions may affect pregnant and breastfeeding women's acceptability of using intravaginal products and oral medications like the DPV VR and Truvada oral tablet.

The MTN-041 study population will consist of HIV-uninfected women 18-40 years old who are currently or were recently (within two years) pregnant or breastfeeding, men aged 18 years or older whose partners are currently or were recently (within two years) pregnant or breastfeeding, grandmothers whose daughters or daughters-in-law are currently or were recently (within two years) pregnant or breastfeeding, and key informants (KIs), which include: health care professionals (HCPs), traditional birth attendants (TBAs), providers of family planning, antenatal, and traditional health services to women, providers of other social services to women, and community leaders.

Up to 60 men and women will be selected at each site for participation in this study, for a maximum total of 240 study participants. This includes up to 50 FGD participants (currently or recently pregnant or breastfeeding women, male partners of women who are currently or were recently pregnant or breastfeeding, and grandmothers with currently or recently pregnant or breastfeeding daughters/daughters-in-law) and up to 10 KIs selected at each site, for a maximum total of 200 FGD participants and 40 KIs enrolled across all sites.
