简要总结
The Partner Navigation Intervention Study is a randomized controlled study (RCT) to assess the efficacy and mechanism of action of the first behavioral intervention to increase hepatitis C (HCV) treatment initiation among adult people who inject drugs (PWID).
详细描述
After an initial ramp-up phase to ensure intervention materials and protocols meet the needs of the target population and organizational setting, we will apply a stratified randomized design to enroll 250 adult PWID with recently diagnosed HCV infection ("index") and their primary injecting partner("partner") into a randomized control efficacy trial of a two-session partner navigation intervention, compared to standard of care. The primary endpoint is starting HCV treatment. Recruitment will over sample PWID between 18-30 years of age.

结局指标
主要结局
Intervention efficacy
时间窗: 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after HCV infection disclosure visit.
Assessed by comparing the proportion of those enrolled in the intervention group who initiated treatment to the proportion of those enrolled in the control group who initiated treatment at 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after HCV infection disclosure visit.
次要结局
- HCV Treatment Completion(Point of HCV treatment initiation up to 3 years)
- Change in Partner Support (Intervention mechanism)(1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6-months after HCV infection disclosure visit)
- Sustained Virologic Response at 12 weeks post treatment completion (SVR12)(Point of HCV treatment initiation up to 3 years)
