NCT01965470

Brief Summary

The BCPP study is designed to test the hypothesis that implementing an enhanced combination prevention package which includes provision of ART to all participants, regardless of CD4 count or HIV disease severity, will impact the HIV/AIDS epidemic by significantly reducing population-level, cumulative HIV incidence in a defined geographic area over a period of 3 years and will be cost-effective.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Population-level, cumulative HIV incidence

    Population-level cumulative HIV incidence will be measured in a cohort of HIV-negative persons identified from a 20% sample of eligible households in the 30 study communities followed annually.

    3 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • 2. Population-level uptake of HIV testing and counseling (HTC), ART, VL Suppression, male circumcision (MC), and PMTCT services

    3 years

  • Cost per additional infection averted

    3 years

Study Arms (2)

Combination Prevention

EXPERIMENTAL

* Scale-up of HTC services during 2 annual HTC campaigns, with a target of \>90% of adults having documentation of their HIV-infected status or documentation of an HIV-negative test in the preceding 12 months. * Scale-up of universal ART for all HIV-infected adults, with a target of \>93% of HIV positive adults receiving ART. * Scale-up of retention in care and adherence interventions, with a target of ensuring that \>95% of HIV-infected adults are virally suppressed with HIV-1 RNA \<400 copies per ML.. * Scale-up of linkage to MC services, with a target of ensuring \>60% of HIV-negative men are circumcised. * Rapid strengthening of PMTCT services, with a target of \>90% of women initiated on indefinite ART (Option B+) during pregnancy remaining in care and on treatment at 12 months post-delivery.

Other: Combination Prevention

Enhanced Care

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Enhanced Care Communities will receive guidance and improved technical support for quality management and data systems at all local clinics at which individuals receive HIV care and treatment.
