Study Details

Brief summary:

This project will develop, implement, and evaluate models for use of point-of-care nucleic acid testing (POC NAT) among HIV-negative persons seeking HIV testing, PEP, and PrEP and HIV-positive persons in community and clinical settings. Study aims #1 and #2 will evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a qualitative POC NAT in persons not known to be HIV-positive and will determine the impact of its use on PrEP uptake and persistence among persons testing HIV-negative and on time to HIV continuum of care outcomes among persons testing HIV-positive. Aim #3 will implement a POC NAT-tailored behavioral intervention to evaluate impact on time to virologic suppression among PLWH receiving ART. Aim #4 will quantify the acceptability and feasibility of implementation of POC NAT in community and clinical settings and collect cost and related data for cost-effectiveness analyses. Finally, in Aim #5, a distinct but related study will compare the sensitivity, specificity, and agreement of multiple POC NATs over a range of HIV RNA levels.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: POC NAT & Adherence Intervention

These participants will receive the POC NAT test during their study visit. The result will be conveyed to their provider, who will deliver the result and an adherence intervention.

no intervention: Standard of Care

These participants will receive the clinical standard of care during their visit.

Interventions

POC NAT & Adherence Intervention

The POC NAT test will be the SAMBA Semi-Q HIV test. The adherence intervention will be developed by study staff and tailored for delivery along with the POC NAT results.

Primary outcome measure

  • Time to viral suppression [ Time Frame: Participants will be enrolled for up to 6 months ]
