Abstrakt: Background HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN) 704/085, a placebo-controlled clinical trial assessing the efficacy of VRC01 broadly neutralizing antibody infusion for HIV prevention, offered oral preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) as the standard of prevention at no cost to participants. Methods We characterized features of- identified factors associated with- PrEP initiation and discontinuation, and the effects of PrEP initiation on HIV incidence. Results Of 2221 participants, 31.8% initiated oral PrEP during study follow-up, with the highest proportion of PrEP initiations in Brazil (83.2%) and the United States (US) (54.2%). Prior PrEP use was associated with PrEP initiation (hazard ratio [HR], 2.22 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.25–3.95]). Participants from Switzerland (HR, 0.5 [95% CI,.3–1.0]) and Peru (HR, 0.08 [95% CI,.06–.1]) had lower likelihood of PrEP initiation compared to the US, while participants from Brazil had higher likelihood (HR, 2.6 [95% CI, 2.0–3.3]). In the US, PrEP initiation was lower in areas with higher unmet need for PrEP (HR, 0.9 per 5 units [95% CI, 0.8–1.0]). PrEP initiators had 58% less risk of acquiring HIV than PrEP noninitiators. Among PrEP initiators, 34.4% discontinued PrEP during study follow-up. Brazil had 63% less likelihood of PrEP discontinuation than the US (HR, 0.37 [95% CI,.22–.60]). Conclusions When included as standard of prevention in HVTN 704/085, oral PrEP utilization patterns mirrored those observed in real-life settings. Variable effects of oral PrEP on HIV outcomes in clinical trials may be expected based on regional differences in oral PrEP use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
