ABSTRACT
Adherence to HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) study drug is critical for safety, tolerability, and efficacy trials, and may be affected by how adherence is communicated by the study staff to trial participants. Increasingly, clinical trials investigating PrEP are creating and implementing 'participant-centered' approaches that discuss potential non-adherence neutrally (without negative judgement) and support efforts to adhere versus insisting on perfect adherence. In the HPTN069/ACTG A5305 study, we evaluated participant experiences of potentially negative adherence-related interactions with study teams using ten items to characterize the frequency of such experiences. We related these individual items and a combined set of seven negative experience items (total negative experience score) to drug concentrations (detectable or consistent with daily-dosing). The exploratory analyses used logistic regression for each experience item on the full sample and disaggregated by sex. Several experiences were related to drug detection and to daily-dosing, although more so for participants identifying as men than women. Total negative experience scores associated with not having detection drug concentrations for the full sample, and remained significant even when controlling for sex, age, and race. Daily dosing was associated with total negative experience score for men in the sample. Additional investigations into adherence-related interactions with study teams that are most problematic or helpful in general and uniquely for men and women are warranted.
