Brief summary
This study will evaluate how safe and tolerable a combination of taking three-drugs will be for the purpose of preventing HIV transmission after a high-risk sexual contact exposure in HIV uninfected adults.
Detailed description
Participants are given a regimen containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) 300mg and emtricitabine (FTC) 200mg fixed-dose combination tablet (TDF/FTC) once daily, and atazanavir, one 300mg tablet and one 100 mg ritonavir given once daily,for 28 days.
Interventions
TDF 300mg and FTC 200mg fixed-dose combination tablet (TDF/FTC) once daily, and atazanavir, one 300mg tablet and one 100 mg ritonavir given once daily

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Safety of Regimen - Symptoms | Visit 3- Day 30 | Number of subjects who experienced moderate-to-severe symptoms on the symptom-directed physical exam at or before visit 3. |
| Safety of Regimen - Adverse Events/Serious Adverse Events Considered Related | visit 3 - day 30 | Number of subjects who experience adverse or serious adverse events that are considered related to the use of the drug regimen at or before visit 3. |
| Safety of Regimen - Unsafe Biological Test | visit 3 - day 30 | Number of subjects who have an unsafe biological test result as part of the laboratory screen for safety levels (e.g., CBC, Creatinine, etc.) at or before visit 3. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Awareness of NPEP | Visit 2- Day 14 | Assess awareness as measured by how many participants had initially heard of NPEP prior to the incident exposure |
| Adherence - Degree of Adherence | Visit 1- Day 28 | Number of participants who completed prescribed regimen |
| Adherence Rate - Overall | Visit 3- Day 30 | Adherence to the regimen will be assessed by whether the regimen was completed as prescribed or not. χ2 tests will be used to assess differences in the proportion of both completion and adherence between participants in the current study and participants in previous studies of NPEP at Fenway Health (historical controls). |
| Prior nPEP Use | Visit 2- Day 14 | Number of participants who had used nPEP prior to participation in the study. |
