  1. TasP is not enough • Stipulated that TasP is effective in reducing infectiousness of the treated person • But much more is required. • TasP requires effective behavioral interventions • Testing, access, linkage, retention, adherence • Processes that occur outside of the clinic • Prevention requires a diverse portfolio of services so that there is something attractive for everyone. • Many prevention services are more cost effective than TasP • Social benefits are Important

PLoS ONE 8(2): e55312. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0055312 http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0055312

  8. Why is TasP not working? • Requires engagement, testing, linkage, adherence. • Processes occur outside of clinics and clinical thinking. • Only 28% with HIV in the US are effectively treated. • Only 44% in San Francisco (a privileged setting). • Risk compensation • In couples, a third of infections arise from outside the primary partnership. • 10 to 50% of new infections come from acute infections, before they can be diagnosed and treated.

  9. The Prevention Portfolio is Diverse: • HIV Testing and counseling • Condoms • Circumcision • Needle Exchange • Interactive client based counseling • For adherence, for harm reduction • Treatment for Positives • PREP for Negatives • Listen to what people want

  10. Nothing passes through condoms: Use with confidence

  11. Learning From Prior Success • Condom Use in Early 1980s • “Love Carefully” Uganda 1990s • Seroadaptive Behaviors Late 1990s • Common Characteristics • Grass Roots Initiatives • Focus on immediate concerns • Motivated by Sexual and Social Goals

  12. Risk Reduction During PREP UseBy Drug Concentration *Compared with placebo, after controlling for numbers of partners, condom use, STIs, age, site Anderson et al, Science Translational Medicine 2012 4:151ra125

  13. Adequate Adherence to PREP is Feasible Region Drug Detection* P < 0.001 *Detection of TFV/FTC/TFV-DP or FTC-TP in plasma or PBMC

  15. Ways PrEP Could Enable Treatment • Decreased burden on HIV treatment programs, • Motivates HIV testing, • Provides benefits to people hoping they are uninfected, • Seropositives may be linked into care. • More timely identification of acute infections, • Allows earlier therapy initiation, • Enables cure research for acute infection. • Greater familiarity with antiretroviral therapy, • A diversity of providers serving a diversity of people, • Uninfected people become aware of therapy and HIV. • May destigmatize therapy and the people who use it.

  16. Social Benefits

  17. Combination Prevention

  18. A Combination of Approaches is Essential for Increasing Uptake and Use of Prevention Methods to Levels Required to End AIDS
