RESUMO

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review provides an update of evidence for HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP), including efficacy and safety of newly available medications. It discusses barriers to care that are unique to adolescents and young adults as well as interventions that may help increase uptake, adherence, and retention in care. RECENT FINDINGS: Tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine and cabotegravir are both newly approved medications for the prevention of HIV and are well tolerated and effective for adolescents. These medications, along with tenofovir disoproxil-emtricitabine, offer a variety of PrEP options to choose from. SUMMARY: Adolescents and young adults have many options when it comes to HIV prevention, but barriers persist in terms of uptake and adherence to PrEP and retention in care. Technology-based interventions, provider education, navigation support, and multiple access options are all tools to help increase PrEP use in young people.

RESUMO

Background: The Moderate Needs (MOD) Clinic in Seattle, Washington provides walk-in primary care for people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who are incompletely engaged in standard care. Methods: We evaluated HIV outcomes among patients enrolled in the MOD Clinic (within group analysis) and, separately, among MOD patients versus patients who were MOD-eligible but did not enroll (comparison group analysis) during January 1, 2018-September 30, 2021. The primary outcome was viral suppression ([VS] viral load <200 copies/mL); secondary outcomes care engagement (≥2 visits ≥60 days apart) and sustained VS (≥2 consecutive suppressed viral loads ≥60 days apart). In the within group analysis, we examined outcomes at time of MOD enrollment versus 12 months postenrollment. In the comparison group analysis, we examined outcomes at the time of MOD eligibility versus 12 months posteligibility. Both analyses used modified Poisson regression. Results: Most patients in MOD (N = 213) were unstably housed (52%) and had psychiatric comorbidities (86%) or hazardous substance use (81%). Among patients enrolled ≥12 months (N = 164), VS did not increase significantly from baseline to postenrollment (63% to 71%, P = .11), but care engagement and sustained VS both improved (37% to 86%, P < .001 and 20% to 53%, P < .001, respectively) from pre-enrollment to 12 months postenrollment. In the comparison group analysis, VS worsened in nonenrolled patients (N = 517) from baseline to 12 months posteligibility (82% to 75%, P < .001). Patients in the MOD Clinic who met criteria for the comparison group analysis (N = 68) were more likely than nonenrolled patients to be engaged in care at 12 months posteligibility (relative risk, 1.29; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-1.63). Conclusions: The MOD Clinic enrollment was associated with improved engagement in care. This model adds to the spectrum of differentiated HIV care services.
