Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the compliancy of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Chengdu, Sichuan province, and explore the influencing factors. Methods: From 1 July 2013 to 30 September 2015, a random, open, multi-center and parallel control intervention study was conducted in 328 MSM enrolled by non-probability sampling in Chengdu. The MSM were divided into 3 groups randomly, i.e. daily group, intermittent group (before and after exposure) and control group. Clinical follow-up and questionnaire survey were carried out every 3 months. Their PrEP compliances were evaluated respectively and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the related factors. Results: A total of 141 MSM were surveyed, in whom 59(41.8%) had good PrEP compliancy. The PrEP compliancy rate was 69.0% in daily group, higher than that in intermittent group (14.3%), the difference had significance (χ(2)=45.29,P<0.001). Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that type of PrEP was the influencing factors of PrEP compliancy. Compared with daily group, the intermittent group had worse PrEP compliancy (OR=0.07, 95%CI: 0.03-0.16). Conclusion: The PrEP compliance of the MSM in this study was poor, the compliancy would be influenced by the type of PrEP.

目的: 了解成都市MSM人群在艾滋病暴露前预防用药(PrEP)的依从性及影响因素。 方法: 按照随机、开放、多中心平行对照临床干预研究,于2013年7月1日至2015年9月30日按照样本量估算,采用滚雪球法招募合格的研究对象为HIV高感染风险且HIV检测结果阴性的MSM,共328人,随机化分配为每日用药组、高危行为前后用药组和空白对照组,每3个月进行临床随访和问卷调查。评价每日用药组、高危行为前后用药组的服药依从性,并用logistic回归模型探讨PrEP服药依从性的影响因素。 结果: 共分析141名研究对象,41.8%(59/141)PrEP服药依从性好,每日用药组和高危行为前后服药组的PrEP服药依从性分别为69.0%(49/71)、14.3%(10/70),差异有统计学意义(χ(2)=45.29,P<0.001)。多因素logistic分析结果显示,用药方式是PrEP服药依从性的影响因素,相比于每日用药组,高危行为前后用药组的服药依从性相较差(OR=0.07,95%CI:0.03~0.16)。 结论: MSM人群PrEP服药依从性总体不够理想,用药方式是PrEP服药依从性的主要影响因素。.
