Intensive Combination Approach to Rollback the Epidemic in Nigerian Adolescents: UH3 Phase
Sponsor: Northwestern University
Summary
Combination interventions with mHealth and Peer Navigation components will be evaluated in a randomized, stepped wedge trial among youth in Ibadan, Lagos, Sagamu, and Jos, Nigeria. Study findings will demonstrate whether or not the combination interventions for HIV testing and linkage to care and for HIV treatment outcomes, which were found to be efficacious in our prior pilot UG3 trial, will remain efficacious if scaled as proposed in this UH3 trial, across multiple sites.
