ABSTRACT In the United States (US), transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth have high rates of new HIV diagnoses, with Black, Latinx, and other TGD youth of color representing the majority of these cases. The HIV prevention and care continua emphasize the need to reduce HIV transmission risk via regular HIV testing, consistent condom use, and linkages to HIV prevention and care, such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among HIV- negative individuals and antiretroviral therapy (ART) and viral suppression among people living with HIV. However, there are inequities at each step of these continua among TGD youth of color. TGD youth of color experience intersectional oppression that results in unmet gender affirmation, legal, and economic needs, which have been linked to inequities in HIV prevention and continua outcomes. Building on formative work, this project seeks to test the effectiveness of the LEAP intervention, a HIV status-neutral intervention designed to address social determinants of health to reduce sexual risk behaviors, increase HIV prevention uptake (PrEP use), and treatment outcomes (viral suppression). LEAP will harness the resources, geographic diversity, and multidisciplinary expertise of the Adolescent Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN) to provide gender-affirming individualized HIV prevention and treatment peer support, address health-harming legal needs, and improve educational and employment outcomes for translation into real-world practice. We propose a hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation study focused on testing the effectiveness of LEAP and secondarily conducting a prospective implementation process evaluation. HIV risk will be assessed using a composite indicator of risk, which is a binary HIV risk indicator of validated measures of sexual risk behavior, as well as self-reported and biomarkers of HIV status, PrEP use, and viral suppression. We will recruit and randomize 250 TGD youth of color from five different ATN Site Consortiums (stratified by site, HIV status, and gender), following participants for 12 months and collecting biological (i.e., HIV status, PrEP use, or viral load) and behavioral data. Findings will provide critical insights into the effectiveness of an urgently needed multicomponent intervention designed to address unmet gender affirmation, legal, and economic needs to reduce HIV inequities among TGD youth of color.

抽象的 在美国 (US)，跨性别和性别多样化 (TGD) 青年的新艾滋病毒诊断率很高， 其中黑人、拉丁裔和其他 TGD 有色人种青年占这些案例的大多数。艾滋病毒预防 和护理连续性强调需要通过定期艾滋病毒检测来降低艾滋病毒传播风险，一致 安全套的使用以及与艾滋病毒预防和护理的联系，例如艾滋病毒感染者中的暴露前预防（PrEP） 阴性个体以及艾滋病毒感染者的抗逆转录病毒治疗（ART）和病毒抑制。 然而，在 TGD 有色人种青年中，这些连续体的每一步都存在不平等。 TGD色彩青春 经历交叉压迫，导致性别肯定、法律和经济需求得不到满足， 这与艾滋病毒预防和持续结果的不平等有关。以形成性工作为基础，这 该项目旨在测试 LEAP 干预措施的有效性，这是一种艾滋病毒状态中立的干预措施，旨在 解决健康的社会决定因素，以减少性危险行为，提高艾滋病毒预防措施（PrEP 使用）和治疗结果（病毒抑制）。 LEAP 将利用资源、地理多样性和 青少年艾滋病毒/艾滋病干预试验网络 (ATN) 的多学科专业知识提供 确认性别的个性化艾滋病毒预防和治疗同伴支持，解决危害健康的法律问题 需求，并改善教育和就业成果，以转化为现实世界的实践。我们建议 一项混合 1 型有效性实施研究，重点测试 LEAP 的有效性和 其次进行前瞻性实施过程评估。 HIV 风险将使用以下方法进行评估： 风险综合指标，这是经过验证的性风险行为测量的二元艾滋病毒风险指标， 以及 HIV 状况、PrEP 使用和病毒抑制的自我报告和生物标志物。我们将招募和 从五个不同的 ATN 站点联盟中随机抽取 250 名 TGD 有色人种青少年（按站点、HIV 状况和 性别），跟踪参与者 12 个月并收集生物学数据（即 HIV 状况、PrEP 使用情况或病毒载量） 和行为数据。调查结果将为迫切需要的有效性提供重要见解 旨在解决未满足的性别肯定、法律和经济需求的多方面干预措施 减少 TGD 有色人种青年中的艾滋病毒不平等现象。
