NCT ID NCT06566430
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a program called PrEP My Way that helps young women aged 16-24 in Kisumu, Kenya stay on HIV prevention medication. Participants can choose between a daily pill, a long-acting shot, or a vaginal ring, plus get support from peers. The goal is to see if offering choices and home delivery of supplies helps women use PrEP consistently.
