Official title

Targeting Prospective Memory to Improve HIV Adherence in Adolescents at Risk for Substance Abuse

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Medication adherence rates among youth living with HIV are inadequate to effectively manage the disease, and novel interventions grounded in basic behavioral sciences are needed. This multi-site phased (3 phases) study plans to translate basic cognitive neuroscience regarding prospective memory (PM) into a more potent adherence intervention for youth living with HIV (YLH). The phases are: Phase 1: To improve PM in basic laboratory tasks in YLH with and without substance abuse. -Hypothesis 1: Manipulations in three theory-based components of PM (strategic encoding, self-monitoring and cue salience) will improve PM within each participant. Phase 2: To conduct proof of concept studies of a text-delivered PM intervention for taking ART in YLH with suboptimal adherence. * Hypothesis 2: Using a multiple baseline across subjects design, adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) will improve following initiation of the PM adherence intervention and will be maintained for 6 weeks after tapering of the intervention. * Hypothesis 2a: Similar feasibility, tolerability, and adherence improvement trends will be seen in youth with and without substance problems. Phase 3: To conduct additional proof of concept studies, based on Phase 2 findings, of a text-delivered PM intervention for taking ART in YLH with suboptimal adherence. * Hypothesis 3: Using a multiple baseline across subjects design, adherence to ART will improve following initiation of the PM adherence intervention and will be maintained for 6 weeks after tapering of the intervention. * Hypothesis 3a: Similar feasibility, tolerability, and adherence improvement trends will be seen in youth.
