Integrating PrEP Into Family Planning Services at Title X Clinics in the Southeastern US

Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is a daily pill to prevent HIV that, when taken as prescribed, reduces the risk of getting HIV from sexual intercourse or drug use. In the United States, most studies which examine prescribing PrEP have not included young women. PrEP provides a way for women to take control of their HIV prevention and may be a good option for some women. Family planning clinics are a trusted source of preventative, routine, and symptom-driven gynecological care for adolescent and young adult women (AYAW). Thus, these clinics are a natural setting to provide PrEP services for AYAW. This study will examine how effectively three clinics in Atlanta are able to implement a PrEP program for their eligible female patients as well as follow a cohort of 300 women for six months (150 starting PrEP immediately and 150 electing to not take PrEP, at least initially) to characterize individual, provider, and clinic-level variables and constructs that are associated with PrEP uptake, continuation, and adherence. Both participant and biological data will be collected to answer the primary research question. Women will provide blood, urine, oral, vaginal, anal, and hair samples at three different time points. These samples will be tested to measure incident sexually transmitted infections and unplanned pregnancies as well as PrEP adherence (for women who initiated PrEP). Ultimately, this data will describe each clinic's effectiveness at providing PrEP services to AYAW.

Switch Study to Evaluate Dolutegravir Plus Lamivudine in Virologically Suppressed Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Positive Adults (TANGO)

The aim of the study is to establish if human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected adult subjects with current virologic suppression on a ?3-drug tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) based regimen (TBR) remain suppressed upon switching to a two-drug regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) 50 milligram (mg) + lamivudine (3TC) 300 mg. This study will also provide important information regarding the safety and subject satisfaction with this two-drug regimen. The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the non-inferior antiviral activity of switching to DTG + 3TC once daily compared to continuation of TBR over 48 weeks in HIV-1 infected, ART-experienced, virologically suppressed subjects. This study also will characterize the long-term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG + 3TC compared to TBR through Week 144 and characterize the long-term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG + 3TC through Week 200. This will be a 200-week, Phase III, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group study. The study will include a screening phase (up to 28 days), a randomized early switch phase (Day 1 up to Week 148), a randomized late switch phase (Week 148 up to Week 200), and a continuation phase (post Week 200). Approximately 550 HIV-1 infected adults on stable TBR will be randomized 1:1 to switch to DTG + 3TC once daily for up to 200 weeks, or to continue their TBR for 148 weeks, at which time and if HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) <50 copies per milliliter (c/mL) at Week 144, these subjects will switch to DTG + 3TC up to Week 200.
