Summary

This study will survey 128 adults in Louisville, Kentucky who are already taking or starting a long-acting injectable HIV PrEP shot. Participants will answer questionnaires about their satisfaction and adherence to either lenacapavir or cabotegravir over 12 months. The goal is to understand real-world preferences and outcomes, not to test a new drug.

If successful, this study could help doctors and patients choose the long-acting injectable PrEP that works best for them, improving HIV prevention.

What could go wrong
