NCT01632995

Brief Summary

This study will assess the uptake, acceptability, safety, and feasibility of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), consisting of a once-daily fixed-dose combination tablet of emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), administered at sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinics and a community health center in the United States.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (8)

  • Measurement of Acceptance Rate of PrEP

    Measured through enrollment (Week 0)

  • Measurement of Refusal Rate of PrEP

    Measured through enrollment (Week 0)

  • Duration of PrEP Use

    Number of study drug interruptions

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

  • Duration of PrEP Use

    Mean duration of interruptions

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

  • Measurement of Side Effects/Toxicities

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

  • Measurement of PrEP Adherence by TFV-DP Levels in DBS

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

  • Number of Male Sexual Partners

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

  • Measurement of PrEP Adherence by Medication Possession Ratio

    Medication possession ratio is defined as the number of dispensed pills divided by the number of days between visits

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of Participants Who Seroconvert

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

  • Measurement of HIV Drug Resistance Patterns Among Participants Who Become Infected

    Participants were followed for 48 weeks, or up to the point of early termination

Study Arms (1)

Emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)

EXPERIMENTAL

All study participants will be assigned to this arm and will receive one FTC/TDF tablet orally once a day.

Drug: FTC 200 mg/TDF 300 mg fixed-dose combination tablet

Interventions

Each participant will be directed to take one FTC/TDF tablet orally once a day, with or without food.

Also known as: Truvada
Emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Must be either a man who has sex with men or a transgender female
  • Male sex (at birth)
  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent
  • HIV-1 uninfected, defined as having a negative rapid HIV antibody test at both screening visit and enrollment and a negative 4th generation antibody/antigen test at screening
  • No laboratory evidence of a detectable HIV viral load (San Francisco site only)
  • Evidence of risk of acquiring HIV-1 infection including any one of the following:
  • (1) Condomless anal sex with two or more male or transgender female sex partners during the last 12 months; or (2) two or more episodes of anal sex with at least one HIV-positive partner during the last 12 months; or (3) sex with a male or transgender female partner and any of the following STDs diagnosed during the last 12 months or at screening: syphilis, rectal gonorrhea, or rectal chlamydia.
  • Able to provide a street address of residence or phone number for themselves or two personal contacts who would know their whereabouts during the period of the demonstration project
  • Adequate renal function: creatinine clearance of 60 ml/min or greater as estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation within 45 days of enrollment
  • A urine dipstick with a negative or trace result for protein within 45 days of enrollment
  • Fluent in English or in Spanish

You may not qualify if:

  • Signs or symptoms of acute HIV infection
  • Previously diagnosed active and serious infections including active tuberculosis infection or osteomyelitis and all infections requiring parenteral antibiotic therapy (other than STDs requiring intramuscular injections of antibiotics); active clinically significant medical problems including poorly controlled cardiac disease (e.g., symptoms of ischemia or congestive heart failure) or previously diagnosed malignancy expected to require further treatment
  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive
  • History of pathological bone fractures not related to trauma
  • Receiving ongoing therapy with any of the following: investigational antiretroviral agents (PEP is allowed as described in the protocol), interferon (alpha, beta, or gamma) or interleukin (e.g., IL-2) therapy, agents with significant nephrotoxic potential, other agents that may inhibit or compete for elimination via active renal tubular secretion (e.g., probenecid), and/or other investigational agents
  • Concomitant participation in a clinical trial using investigational agents, including placebo-controlled clinical trials using such agents
  • At enrollment, has any other condition that, based on the opinion of the investigator or designee, would preclude provision of informed consent; make participation in the project unsafe; complicate interpretation of outcome data; or otherwise interfere with achieving the project objectives
