App and home delivery aim to keep youth HIV-free
NCT ID NCT07438041
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a new way to help young people (ages 13-24) stick with PrEP, a medication that prevents HIV. Participants get PrEP delivered to a community spot (like home or a mobile van) and use a smartphone app for reminders and support. The goal is to see if this combo improves adherence and persistence at 6 and 9 months.
