What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- EMPOWER behavioral intervention
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could help more African American women in the South make informed decisions about HIV prevention and increase PrEP use.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The program is behavioral, not a drug, so it won't directly prevent HIV.
