NCT ID NCT05161663

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a peer-driven program could help African American and Hispanic/Latino men who have sex with men start taking PrEP, a daily pill that prevents HIV. 98 men who were not on PrEP joined the program. The goal was to see if talking with trained peers made them more likely to start and stick with PrEP over 6 months.
