  There are limited data on uptake of postpartum family planning (FP), particularly in high HIV prevalence settings. We assessed the timing of modern postpartum FP initiation and the cofactors of earlier uptake using longitudinal data from a clinical trial conducted in Kenya to assess two models of PrEP delivery among pregnant and postpartum women (NCT#03070600). Time to uptake of modern postpartum FP was estimated using survival analysis methods, …

  Community-based delivery and monitoring of antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV has the potential to increase viral suppression for individual- and population-level health benefits. However, the cost-effectiveness and budget impact are needed for public health policy. We used a mathematical model of HIV transmission in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, to estimate population prevalence, incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) …

  We identified several barriers to post-trial PrEP access. Strategies to enhance PrEP access such as a reduction in waiting queues, convenient facility operating hours, and making PrEP more widely available and accessible are needed. It is also worth noting that oral PrEP access has expanded in South Africa from 2018 till now and this could improve access to PrEP for participants exiting trials who desire to continue PrEP

  Delivery of oral PrEP, a potent HIV prevention intervention, has begun within public health systems in many countries in Africa. Training as many health providers as possible expeditiously is necessary to efficiently and rapidly scale up PrEP delivery among at risk populations and thereby realize the greatest impact of PrEP. We designed and implemented an innovative on-site modular training approach delivered in five two-hour modules. The modules…

  Communication around condom use in the context of PrEP services presents a potential conundrum for patients and providers. Within the Partners Scale-Up Project, which supports integration of PrEP delivery in HIV care clinics, we interviewed 41 providers and 61 PrEP users and identified themes relating to condom messaging and use. Most providers counselled PrEP initiators to always use both PrEP and condoms, except when trying to conceive. However…

  Introduction To date, six clinical trials have explored the efficacy of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) against HIV infection using oral tenofovir and/or emtricitabine/tenofovir [1–6]. Efficacy ranged from 0 to 75% [7], the variation of which can largely be explained by differences in PrEP adherence [8]. Efficacy data directly correlate with the objective adherence measures in those studies, and efficacy estimates were between 90 and 100% when ad…

  BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral medications that are used as prophylaxis can prevent acquisition of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. However, in clinical trials among African women, the incidence of HIV-1 infection was not reduced, probably because of low adherence. Longer-acting methods of drug delivery, such as vaginal rings, may simplify use of antiretroviral medications and provide HIV-1 protection. METHODS: We conducted a ph…
