27 PrEP Implementation: Does efficacy translate into real-world impact?

28 PrEP IMPLEMENTATION Clinical Trials Demonstration Projects Clinical Programs Efficacy Feasibility 1. Delivery 2. Uptake 3. Adherence 4. Risks 5. Impact Real world Prospective, observational cohorts, defined time periods, free medications

29 DELIVERY Defining and targeting a priority population Role with other HIV prevention strategies Primary care, HIV specialists, community clinics, other

30

31 UPTAKE Do people want to take it? Attitudes and stigma about PrEP Use during highest risk periods

32

33 ADHERENCE Do people actually take it? Patterns of use (daily versus intermittent) Is adherence high enough to protect?

34 The estimated PrEP efficacy was 76% for 2 doses/week, 96% for 4 doses/week, and 99% for 7 doses/week. Anderson et al., Science Trans Med, 2011

35 RISKS Sexual behavior while on PrEP Risk compensation, behavioral disinhibition Side-effects, drug resistance, long-term safety, pregnancy
