研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of providing oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and opioid agonist therapy (OAT) simultaneously in existing pharmacy-based programs operating in Alberta and Saskatchewan, to collect preference, adherence, and persistence data on oral PrEP, and to assess interest / acceptability of long-lasting injectable options for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention.
详细描述
In Alberta and Saskatchewan, Canada, HIV acquisition is increasingly and predominantly seen in people who inject drugs (PWID). Less than 2% of this population are utilizing PrEP despite a high level of new infections. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of providing oral PrEP and OAT simultaneously in existing pharmacy-based programs operating in Alberta and Saskatchewan, to collect preference, adherence, and persistence data on oral PrEP, and to assess interest and acceptability of long-lasting injectable options for HIV prevention.

结局指标
主要结局
Oral PrEP use in an OAT setting at 6 months follow-up: Review data from participant screening and clinical follow-up, and compare it to baseline PrEP use to assess uptake
时间窗: Start of 6-month recruitment period to 6 months following the end of the recruitment period
The proportion of participants: * Using PrEP within the clinical programs at baseline * Who initiate PrEP (take one dose) when approached for study enrollment and 1, 3, and 6 months from study initiation * Maintained on PrEP at 6 months (have taken PrEP at least once a week)
Oral PrEP use in an OAT setting at 6 months follow-up: Record the time from offer to acceptance of PrEP
时间窗: From the time that PrEP was offered to the acceptance of PrEP or the end of the 6-month recruitment period
次要结局
- Compare usage and clinical outcomes between individuals who initiate PrEP and those who do not at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months(From initiation of PrEP to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation)
- STI incidence between individuals who initiate PrEP and those who do not at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months(From initiation of PrEP to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation)
- HIV incidence between individuals who initiate PrEP and those who do not at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months(From initiation of PrEP to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation)
- To determine the barriers, facilitators, preferences, and contextual factors for uptake, adherence, and continuance of PrEP by participants, as well as patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures(From initiation of PrEP to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation)
- To determine the barriers, facilitators, preferences, and contextual factors for uptake, adherence, and continuance of PrEP by participants, as well as PRO measures(1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation of PrEP)
- To determine the barriers, facilitators, preferences, and contextual factors for uptake, adherence, and continuance of PrEP by participants, as well as PRO measures(From initiation of PrEP to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation)
- To determine the barriers, facilitators, preferences, and contextual factors for uptake, adherence, and continuance of PrEP by participants, as well as PRO measures(At initiation of PrEP)
