Characterizing STIs and antimicrobial resistance in men with urethral discharge syndrome in Uganda
REFNo: HS1338ES
Primary:
• To assess and compare the prevalence of pharyngeal STIs (gonorrhea, chlamydia) in relation to urogenital STIs, characterize the antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profile of pharyngeal and urogenital gonorrhea, and identify demographic and behavioral risk factors associated with STIs at different anatomical sites. STIs and AMR profiles will be determined using a combination of traditional laboratory methods (cultures) and molecular approaches, including, but not limited to nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs).
Secondary:
• To assess acceptability of self-collected tests in men with UDS and pharyngeal testing for STIs in Uganda.
• To estimate the prevalence of 4 STIs in a population of men with UDS caused by the following pathogens: Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoea (NG), Trichomonas vaginalis (TV), and Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) using NAATs.
• To estimate the proportion of STIs (CT/NG/MG) at multiple anatomical sites (penis and pharynx (throat))
• To assess the prevalence of HIV and syphilis, and compare HIV result to self-reported HIV status.
• To explore socio-demographic, behavioural and clinical factors associated with positive STI diagnosis and antimicrobial-resistant infections.
• To compare the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of pharyngeal and urogenital NG isolates recovered the same participant(s).
• To compare the distribution of AMR markers in pharyngeal and urogenital NG.
• To determine the effectiveness of treatment for urogenital NG infections on pharyngeal infections.
• To explore the feasibility of detecting NG and AMR markers using a single-cell molecular approach directly from pharyngeal samples.
• To collect pharyngeal samples for future metagenomics analysis to explore the role of microbiome on pharyngeal NG infections and AMR.
• To explore the role of commensal Neisseria species on the development of AMR in NG.
To provide samples to be added to the Johns Hopkins International STI biorepository at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD USA.
