  • Contingency Management in HIV Care for Both Stimulant Use & ART Adherence

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Methamphetamine use and associated sequelae have been rising, and represent a major barrier to successful control of the HIV epidemic. Methamphetamine use is associated with poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy for HIV, and the investigators propose a trial of contingency management (providing incentives for behavioral change) targeting both reduced methamphetamine use and improved adherence to HIV medications. The investigators will utilize a real-time, point-of-care urine assay for both outcomes, aiming to evaluate feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of HIV care-based contingency management. Hair levels will also be studied as a quantitative outcome for reduction in methamphetamine use.

  • PrEP Affect Regulation Treatment Innovation

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This multi-site randomized controlled trial enrolling sexual minority men who use stimulants and are currently taking pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). This randomized controlled trial will test the efficacy of a PrEP Affect Regulation Treatment Innovation (PARTI) condition comprised of a 5-session positive affect intervention delivered during smartphone-based Contingency Management (CM) for directly observed PrEP doses (PARTI+CM) compared to an attention-control condition delivered during CM. The primary outcome is HIV acquisition risk measured using a combination of tenofovir-diphosphate levels in dried blood spots that are indicative of sub-optimal adherence to PrEP and recent condomless anal sex.
