What the study is about

The purpose of this project is to test a culturally-tailored, community-delivered long-acting injectable PrEP (lenacapavir) program for Latine gay and bisexual men (GBM) and transgender women (TGW). The objective is to evaluate whether this intervention demonstrates greater persistence on lenacapavir for Latine GBM and TGW compared with what has been observed historically at the Duke PrEP Clinic.

Being studied: Lenacapavir long-acting

Conditions: HIV Prevention; HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis; HIV Prevention Program; HIV Prevention and Care; HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Use
