Summary

This study looks at how to keep a youth-friendly HIV self-testing program called 4YBY running in Nigeria. It will involve over 1,200 young people aged 14-24 who are at risk for HIV. Researchers will compare standard program delivery with an enhanced version that includes extra support for sustainability, measuring how well the services are maintained over two years.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
HIV self-testing bundles and STI screening services
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help sustain HIV prevention services for youth in Nigeria, reducing new infections.
What could go wrong
This is an implementation study, not a treatment trial. Success depends on community engagement and may not generalize to other settings.
