IPREP Study #2: Evaluating Enhanced PrEP Packages for Young Female Sex Workers in Kisumu, Kenya

IPrEP, Study #2: Evaluating the Effectiveness, Feasibility and Acceptability of Enhanced Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Packages for Young Female Sex Workers in Kisumu, Kenya

The overall aim of the proposed study is to compare the effectiveness, feasibility and acceptability of two adherence support interventions, peer support (PS) and reminders plus resource transfer (RRT), in combination with daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to optimize PrEP adherence among young female sex workers (FSW) in Kisumu, Kenya. This is an open-label randomized controlled trial (n=200) in which HIV-negative young FSW will be randomized to receive oral PrEP combined with specific behavioral and structural adherence interventions, either: (1) Intensive Peer Support (PS) or (2) Reminders and Resource Transfer (RRT).Respondent-driven sampling (RDS) will be used to recruit FSW as potential study participants.The study adherence interventions will be delivered over the first 12-month period in conjunction with PrEP. Thereafter, the study-specific adherence interventions will be withdrawn and PrEP continued for an additional 12 months with standard support as per national guidelines. Trial participants will be followed for a total of 24 months and attend 11 study visits over this period.
