About this trial
The goal of the TAIL-PrEP study is to understand how to support the safe discontinuation of injectable long-acting cabotegravir (cab-LA) and lenacapavir (LEN) while maximizing the public health impact of biomedical HIV prevention interventions. In Aim 1, the study will pilot test and assess the acceptability and feasibility of the TAIL-PrEP intervention: for participants discontinuing cab-LA, this will consist of monthly cabotegravir drug level monitoring to provide personalized HIV prevention coaching, for participants considering discontinuing cab-LA or LEN, this will consist of a one-time personalized HIV prevention coaching session. In Aim 2, the study will refine the TAIL-PrEP intervention and implementation strategy based on findings from the pilot study.
