Disclosures
AETC- PEP & PrEP
 I have no financial relationships to disclose.
 PrEP Navigator Model discussed in this presentation
is specific to the Navigator component and
experiences at Petersen HIV Clinics.
Michael
 You are evaluating a 23 year-old male at your office for a
primary care visit
 He has no active complaints. He is sexually active with men and
had six partners over the past year
 He has a history of syphilis diagnosed two-years ago and was
treated with IM penicillin

consistent condom use
 He reports that he currently uses condoms ~80% of the time.
No recent STD since last visit. He drinks alcohol occasionally
and no illicit drug use
What would you recommend for
Michael?
1. HIV screening
2. HIV and STD screening
3. HIV, STD screening and discuss
the importance of persistent
condom use
4. Offer daily Truvada (TDF/FTC)
plus HIV, STD screening and
discuss the importance of
consistent condom use

Understanding PrEP
Example: Birth Control Pill
Oral Contraceptive
(“The Pill”)
Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis
(PrEP)
Prevents pregnancy if taken before sex. Does
not work as morning-after pill.
Prevents HIV infection pre-exposure. Will not
work if already exposed.
Does not always start working immediately.
Does not start working immediately.
Must take daily – cannot skip doses.
Must take daily – cannot skip doses.
Only helps prevent pregnancy, will not prevent
STIs (should still use condoms).
Only helps prevent HIV – will not prevent other
STIs (should still use condoms).
Very effective at preventing pregnancy, but not
100% effective.
Very effective at preventing HIV infection, but
not 100% effective.
Should be taken by anyone who is sexually
active (at risk for becoming pregnant)
Should be taken by anyone who could be
exposed to the HIV virus (at risk for HIV)
If PrEP is taken daily, it can reduce sexually
acquired HIV infection by up to…

PrEP Navigators
 Individuals based out of provider’s office or
community organizations linked to providers, whose
main role is to facilitate access to PrEP.
 PrEP navigation is “A comprehensive and systemwide approach is necessary to ensure that HIVnegative persons at risk of being exposed to HIV are
effectively linked to and managed on PrEP”- California
Department of Public Health
PrEP Navigators
 Provides basic PrEP Information and education
 Locate, and sometimes link to PrEP Providers
 Teaches patients how to utilize public and private
insurance to access PrEP (insurance navigation)
 Explains and explores Patient Assistance programs
for Truvada
 Helps uninsured or underinsured patient navigate
insurance options
 Links to community based clinic if uninsurable
PrEP Navigator- Education
 Provide accurate information about PrEP intervention
based on CDC PrEP Guidelines.
 Review PrEP care process.
 Provide PrEP education around importance of
adherence to medication and PrEP care plan, as well
as follow ups.
 Empower patient to self advocate for PrEP care as
needed.
 Answer any questions concerns patient might have
before starting PrEP
How does PrEP work?
Pre-Exposure Chemoprophylaxis for HIV Prevention
in Men Who Have Sex with Men- The iPrEX Trial
 Randomized clinical trial- 4905
subjects
 Truvada (TDF/FTC) was shown
to decrease the risk of HIV
transmission by 42% in MSM
who also received
comprehensive preventive
services
 The risk was decreased by 92%
in patients with detectable
drug levels

FDA Approval
Indications:
 On May 14, 2014, the US Public Health Service and the CDC
released the first comprehensive guidelines for PrEP.
 PrEP is indicated in patients who are HIV-negative and have one of
the following risk factors:
1. HIV-positive partners
2. MSM with recent unprotected sex or STD
3. Intravenous drug users (IDU) who reported sharing needles or
equipment, or have recently starting substance use treatment
program (high-risk for relapse).
4. Heterosexual men or women who infrequently use condoms and
have sex with high-risk partners

Reducing HIV Risk Behaviors
 Trusting and confidential environment
 Ongoing dialogue with the patient regarding their risk
behavior
 PrEP is not always effective in preventing HIV infection
particularly if used inconsistently
 Consistent use of PrEP together with other prevention
methods (consistent condom use, discontinuing drug
injection or never sharing injection equipment) confers
very high levels of protection

Conclusions
 PrEP is recommended as one prevention option for sexually active MSM,
heterosexual men and women, IDU at substantial risk of HIV acquisition
 Adherence is a key factor in PrEP efficacy
 Before prescribing PrEP, HIV infection must be excluded, and the patient
should be assessed for comorbidities that may present health risks
 The recommended PrEP regimen is fixed-dose TDF/FTC
 Patient assistance options are available to help patients afford PrEP.
 Patients prescribed PrEP should return for follow-up visits at least every
3 months
Questions
Training Evaluation
 Please complete an
online evaluation, at:
http://tinyurl.com/Nov30Eval
Josh
 Josh is a 28-year-old male who is presenting to your office
for an urgent visit
 He reported that he was having sex with a guy the night
before without a condom (insertive anal)
 He is concerned that the guy has not been tested for HIV
before
 Josh was tested for HIV three months ago and the result
was negative
 He uses condoms most of the times except when he drinks
alcohol
What is the best next step?
1. Avoid prescribing PEP since the patient
did not have unprotected receptive anal
intercourse
2. Place a STAT order for infectious disease
consultation so the patient can be seen
within a week
3. Prescribe PEP immediately
4. Repeat HIV testing in 2 weeks (window
period). If test is negative, then prescribe
PEP

Risk of Infection
 Blood and visibly bloody body fluids
 Semen, vaginal secretions, cerebrospinal fluid,
synovial fluid, pleural fluid, peritoneal fluid,
pericardial fluid, and amniotic fluid
 Feces, nasal secretions, saliva, sputum, sweat,
tears, urine, and vomitus are not considered
potentially infectious unless they are visibly
bloody
Initiating PEP
 If the decision is made to administer post-exposure prophylaxis,
it should be started as early as possible after an exposure, ideally
within 2 hours
 Post-exposure prophylaxis is not indicated if the patient presents
for care more than 72 hours after an exposure
 HIV testing (serology and RNA) should be performed at baseline
 Before offering post-exposure prophylaxis, patients should also
be evaluated for the following criteria:
•
•
•
•
•
the nature of the exposure
whether the HIV status of the source is known
whether the exposure occurred within 72 hours prior to presentation
whether the patient is committed to future risk reduction

 Tenofovir + emtricitabine [Truvada] (QD) plus either
raltegravir (BID) or dolutegravir (QD) are recommended as
the preferred initial PEP regimen because of:
• its excellent tolerability
• proven potency in established HIV infection
• ease of administration
 Zidovudine and efavirenz are no longer recommended in the
preferred PEP regimen because of significantly high rates of
treatment-limiting side effects
PEP treatment should be continued for __days. HIV
testing should be repeated at __ weeks and __ months.
