Jail-Based program aims to cut HIV risk after release
NCT ID NCT06919419
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 03, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a program in the Dallas County Jail that identifies people at high risk for HIV and offers them testing and education about PrEP, a daily pill that prevents HIV. A patient navigator helps interested individuals connect with PrEP providers after they are released. The study will measure how many people actually attend a PrEP appointment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- PrEP patient navigation and education program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that offering HIV prevention services in jail helps people start PrEP after release, reducing new HIV infections.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early implementation study, not a drug trial. It may not prove that the program actually prevents HIV, only that people attend PrEP appointments. Results may not apply to other jails.
