简要总结
This study will evaluate the clinical efficacy of using earlier fast-track services compared to the standard of care in a clinical setting to improve retention in care and virologic suppression for patients who are initiating a dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy regimen.
详细描述
With current approaches to HIV care, patients generally do not qualify for expedited services until they have been in care for 6 to 12 months. Once they have achieved an undetectable viral load and/or high adherence, patients qualify for expedited services with fewer clinic visits. The problem with this approach is that it's time-intensive early in ART care, when attrition rates are highest. A potential solution to this problem is to provide earlier fast-track care for patients on dolutegravir-based regimens with viral suppression. This strategy is feasible due to the high potency and rapid declines in viral load with dolutegravir-based regimens.
We will compare a strategy of early fast-track care (8 to 12 weeks, for patients with viral suppression) versus standard initiation of fast-track care (after 6 months in care, with viral suppression). All participants will receive the same ART regimen, the combination regimen of Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate-Lamivudine-Dolutegravir.
