  5. Study Overview • NIMH Healthy Living Project • HIV-Transmission Risk Behavior Intervention Trial • Four-Cities (NY, LA, Mil, SF) • MSM, Women, IDU, Heterosexual Men • Qualitative, formative phase (N=152) • Recruitment sample (N=3,819) • Randomized intervention trial sample (N=936)

  6. Presenters • Anke A. Ehrhardt, Ph.D.: Introduction • Susan Tross, Ph.D.: Qualitative Phase • Robert H. Remien, Ph.D.: Intervention Development & Implementation • Theresa M. Exner, Ph.D.: Study Outcomes

  7. Qualitative Phase: Objectives • Elicit emerging issues in HIV prevention, HIV treatment adherence, and coping and quality of life for PLWH (e.g. serosorting, pregnancy decision making, disclosure, meaning of viral load) • Tailor intervention to subgroups • Account for regional variation

  8. Qualitative Sample(N = 152) • MSM = 52 • Women = 56 • IDU Men = 44

  9. Qualitative Methods:In-depth Individual Interviews • Structured schedule of open-ended questions and follow-up probes -- Focus on meanings, norms, interpersonal contexts, and daily routines, expected to affect health, risk behavior, adaptation to HIV, and participation in and preferences for behavioral intervention -- Conducted by centrally trained (mock interview trained) interviewers -- Transcribed -- 2-3 hours long -- $25 compensation

  10. Qualitative Methods: Coding • Eight coders developed initial codebook, of primary codes and sub-codes, by consensus process (4 transcripts, representing each city and each participant subgroup) • Paired coders refine codebook, until clear saturation is reached (38 transcripts)

  11. Qualitative Methods:Analysis • Coding teams coded domain-specific transcript material (e.g. medication adherence) • Coding teams organized codes or themes on grids, comparing subgroups and contexts (e.g. past versus current treatment) • Coding teams identified quotes illustrative of themes

  12. Selected Qualitative Papers (4 of 10) • Klitzman, R.L., Kirschenbaum, S.B., Dodge, B.

  29. Main Outcome Number of unprotected vaginal and/or anal sex acts in the past 3 months with a partner whose HIV status is negative or unknown

  30. Main Analysis • Intention to Treat • Treated the participant-specific baseline intercept as a normally distributed random effect • Employed random effects Poisson regression model • Treatment effects were estimated using a propensity score to adjust for observed baseline differences

  31. Trial Outcome

  32. Trial Outcome, MSM Change in the number of HIV transmission risk acts across six time points for the intervention and control arms among MSM

  33. Trial Outcome, Women Transmission risk acts across six time points for the intervention and control arms among ALL WOMEN

  34. Trial Outcome, MSW Mean number of transmission risk acts across partners at baseline and follow-up a The definition of the model predicted mean appears in the Statistical Analysis section; analysis based on 655 observations

  35. Study Conclusions (1) • This one-on-one counseling intervention was successful in reducing HIV transmission risk behaviors among HIV-positive adults for as long as 20 – 25 months • Booster sessions are needed to maintain behavior change over longer periods of time

  36. Study Conclusions (2) • Elements of successful trial development and implementation included: • Utilizing a sound theoretical framework to guide assessment domains and intervention development • Conducting qualitative research to inform the intervention and facilitator training • Utilizing collaborations among academic research centers, clinical institutions, and community based organizations • Providing individual tailoring of intervention content

  37. Clinical Implications • It is feasible to implement a one-on-one counseling sexual risk reduction intervention in clinical and community based settings • Sexual risk reduction interventions should be integrated into ongoing clinical care for PLWHA in coordination with strategies to enhance general coping, and improve mental health and healthcare behaviors
