The CATALYST Study: Catalyzing access to new prevention products to stop HIV
REFNo: HS2801ES
The overall goal of the study is to characterize and assess the implementation of an enhanced service delivery package providing choice of PrEP products among women at PEPFAR/USAID delivery sites in Kenya, Lesotho, South Africa, Uganda, and Zimbabwe.
The study has three primary objectives:
Objective 1: Characterize the implementation of the enhanced service delivery package for informed PrEP choice for women in PEPFAR/USAID public health service delivery sites and assess individual-, provider-, facility-, community-, and health system-level facilitators of and barriers to the implementation process. (Achieved through process evaluation, and nested costing and community acceptance studies)
Objective 2: Describe patterns of PrEP use and use effectiveness in the context of informed PrEP choice and assess sociodemographic and contraceptive use correlates of PrEP use patterns. (Achieved through cohort and nested PEU study)
Objective 3: Describe clinically relevant indicators among PrEP users, including rates of HIV infection and drug resistance among PrEP users who acquire HIV following PrEP initiation or had undetected HIV prior to PrEP initiation. (Achieved through cohort, including CAB HIV testing algorithm nested study)

Field Evaluation of National HIV Testing Services Algorithm
REFNo: HS2701ES
Main Objective
To determine the appropriate HIV rapid test algorithm to be used in Uganda considering the new kits on the market.
Specific objectives
1. To assess specificity, sensitivity, negative predictive value (NPV), positive predictive value (PPV) of the rapid HIV tests on the market in Uganda and come up with best RDT algorithm.
2. To identify an algorithm that will best identify acute HIV infections
3. To determine the inter-observer and inter-lab agreement in HIV diagnosis using evaluated RDTs.
