An interventional study of TelePrEP in Hiv, sponsored by University of Colorado, Denver. Recruiting at 1 site in United States. Open to male participants aged 14 Years to 24 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-05-08.
Sponsored by University of Colorado, Denver · Not applicable, Interventional, and Prevention
Youth represent the largest proportion of new HIV infections in Colorado, reflective of their inadequate access and uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis(PrEP)for HIV prevention. Colorado's 2019 HIV/AIDS Prevention Program state-wide review of PrEP barriers showed PrEP eligible individuals do not access PrEP services due to lack of interest, not wanting referral to a navigator, and low estimation of HIV risk. The overall goal is to provide youth at higher risk for HIV with an effective youth informed telemedicine delivery of PrEP (TelePrEP) that addresses PrEP barriers and contributes to ending the HIV epidemic in Colorado. The primary objective will be proportion of youth retained on PrEP 12 months after initiation. The hypotheses are that a TelePrEP model for youth will be acceptable and feasible and will result in successful initiation, persistence and retention on oral PrEP.
University of Colorado, Denver is the lead sponsor of 1,499 studies on the registry; 315 are open to participants now.
Of its 139 completed or terminated interventional studies of FDA-regulated products, 89 (64%) have results posted.

Exclusion Criteria:
1. We will identify youth potentially eligibile for PrEP using tenfovir alefenamide/emtricitabine (TAF/FTC). 2. Eligible youth will be contacted for rapid (same day) consenting and enrollment. 3. Participants who consent to the study will undergo a PrEP initiation visit either the same day or within two weeks with a provider. The initial visit may be in-person or via Telemedicine. 4. TelePrEP visits may be carried out in the setting of the participant's choosing and may include home or at a community organization. 5. Recommended laboratory testing will be arranged as part of the PrEP initiation visit. HIV testing will be carried out as well as Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-recommended laboratory testing will be obtained. 6. TelePrEP(or in-person visits as needed) will be conducted by a skilled multidisciplinary team one month after initiation and then every three months.
Other: TelePrEP
HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis delivered via telemedicine.
Retention
Retention on PrEP at week 48. Retention in PrEP care 12 months after initiation as defined by either PrEP clinic visit (telehealth or in-person) or prescription refill.
Time frame: 48 weeks
TelePrEP Feasibility
Feasibility will be measured by 1) proportion of those screened and eligible who are initiated on PrEP, 2) persistence (time to first discontinuation), and 3) survey responses from participants identifying barriers and facilitators of TelePrEP (satisfaction survey).
Time frame: 48 weeks
TelePrEP Acceptability
Acceptability will be measured by 1) proportion who obtain PrEP services via TelePrEPfor at least 2 visits in a 12 month period and 2) electronic questionnaire responses from youth screening for PrEP at study enrollment as well as satisfaction surveys
Time frame: 48 weeks
Uptake TelePrEP
Number (median; interquartile range) of TelePrEP visits carried out successfully with youth PrEP users by referral or initiation setting
Time frame: 48 weeks
TelePrEP visit rate
Number (median; interquartile range) of TelePrEP visits per patient in 12 month period vs. in-person visits per participant and associate patients demographics related to higher number of TelePrEP visits.
Time frame: 48 weeks
TelePrEP Satisfaction
PrEP user and provider satisfaction with TelePrEP services.
Time frame: 48 weeks
