简要总结
Canada continues to see an unrelenting stream of new HIV diagnoses, with a disproportionate burden among gay, bisexual, and other MSM in major centers such as Toronto. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with oral, daily tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC, Truvada®) is a novel biomedical approach to HIV prevention shown in the iPrEx trial to be safe and efficacious in reducing HIV acquisition by 44% among MSM, when provided in a comprehensive package of HIV prevention interventions including counseling, testing/treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and condoms. There is now widespread mobilization to assess the feasibility of PrEP roll-out worldwide, with urgent calls for 'demonstration projects' addressing real-world PrEP implementation issues.
PREPARATORY-5 is Canada's first PrEP demonstration project, and will examine real-world PrEP implementation issues including acceptability, effectiveness, impact on sexually transmitted infections, and strategies for supporting adherence outside the clinical trial setting. The investigators have also established a comprehensive community-based research program investigating the role of community-based organizations in PrEP implementation and delivery.

结局指标
主要结局
Participants' self-reported overall acceptability of PrEP
时间窗: 12 months
Participants' self-reported overall acceptability of PrEP over the full one-year follow-up period (including the use of the medication, clinic visits, and their impact on the participant's life) will be quantified using a Likert scale.
The level of community interest in PrEP
时间窗: 12 months
The level of community interest in PrEP will be measured by quantifying the volume, rate and HIV risk levels of patient referrals to the PrEP clinic from each key referral source
