Implementing PrEP for Women Who Inject Drugs (NCT05360849)

Implementation of PrEP for Women Who Inject Drugs Through Practice Facilitation in Primary and Reproductive Health Care

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿง  Behavioral & Psychological Program Sponsor: University of Pennsylvania

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Women who inject drugs are among the most vulnerable to acquiring HIV, but very few women who inject drugs are prescribed pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention largely due to barriers within our healthcare system. This research will consider the perspectives of women who inject drugs, healthcare providers, and clinic leadership to improve the way primary care and reproductive health clinics deliver PrEP to women who inject drugs, thereby reducing new HIV infections in this population.
