Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests a program called ZAIMARA that brings together adolescent girls (ages 15-19) and their mother figures for a two-day workshop. The goal is to improve communication about HIV, sexually transmitted infections, and PrEP, and to increase HIV testing and prevention. Researchers will follow 1,200 participants across five sites in Zambia to see if the program reduces new HIV and STI infections and encourages safer sexual behavior.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
behavioral intervention (ZAIMARA workshop curriculum)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a low-cost, scalable way to reduce HIV and STI rates among adolescent girls in Zambia.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral study with no drug or vaccine, so results depend on participation and follow-up. It may not work in other regions or cultures.

May 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Importantly, AGYW who test positive for HIV at the study's baseline assessment will be able to complete the workshops and referred for treatment to avoid stigma.
