NCT ID NCT06230367

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

Summary

This study tests whether a text-messaging program can help prevent HIV in cisgender teen boys and young men (ages 13-22) who have sex with men. About 5,000 participants across the US will receive either HIV prevention texts or general healthy lifestyle texts. The goal is to see if the program lowers new HIV infections and encourages STI testing and use of prevention medicines like PrEP.
