Project Summary/Abstract The Positive Peers mobile app is an original platform developed by and for the hardest to reach HIV disparity populations, young people with HIV who identify as racial, ethnic and/or sexual/ gender minorities. This app holds potential to provide extensive, customizable, self- management tools (i.e., wellness tracker, community forum, chat, frequent original blogs) to young people with HIV anywhere in the US. The Positive Peers app provides health information, health management tools and virtual community support. While the app itself offers a safe place for young persons with HIV to get health information and support, it's use is enhanced by the presence of local peer administrators who provide navigation, support and coaching to users. The proposed study seeks to evaluate its effectiveness in improving viral suppression among minority disparity populations 18-30 years of age who are either newly diagnosed, out of care or not virally suppressed using a randomized control trial design supplemented by an observational cohort of persons who decline to use the app. Clinics in six high priority Ending the HIV epidemic jurisdictions will train staff as app administrators and utilize the app as a clinic- based tool. Our primary objective is to improve HIV outcomes by offering peer interaction, targeted retention and adherence messaging, and interactive trackers and reminders in one smartphone app. Our specific aims are: Aim 1: Compare the effectiveness of HIV care supported by the PPA to usual care for retention in HIV care and viral suppression of newly diagnosed or re-engaged high priority younger adults with HIV. Aim 2: To identify factors that predict user engagement with primary PPA components and associated effects on retention in care, viral suppression, and HIV related perceived stigma. Aim 3: To determine intervention adoption, usability, fidelity, and cost across study sites. These aims will be addressed in a parallel cohort design randomized controlled trial of 250 newly diagnosed or out of care YPWH from designated high priority sites. Participants will be allocated 1:1 to receive the PPA app upon study entry or to a delayed intervention arm where they will receive the usual care with attention controls for 6 months. This will allow for effectiveness evaluation during the earliest phase of adjustment to the diagnosis while also allowing for longitudinal outcome effects.

项目概要/摘要 Positive Peers 移动应用程序是由最努力的人开发的原创平台 为了接触艾滋病毒差异人群，感染艾滋病毒的年轻人被认为是种族、民族和/或 性/性别少数群体。该应用程序有潜力提供广泛的、可定制的、自助的 管理工具（即健康跟踪器、社区论坛、聊天、频繁的原创博客） 美国各地感染艾滋病毒的年轻人。 Positive Peers 应用程序提供健康信息， 健康管理工具和虚拟社区支持。虽然应用程序本身提供了一个安全的地方 对于感染艾滋病毒的年轻人来说，为了获得健康信息和支持，它的使用得到了加强 本地同行管理员为用户提供导航、支持和指导。 拟议的研究旨在评估其改善病毒抑制的有效性 在 18-30 岁的少数民族差异人群中，他们要么是新诊断的，要么是 护理或未使用随机对照试验设计进行病毒抑制，并辅以 拒绝使用该应用程序的观察队列。六个高度优先的诊所结束 艾滋病毒流行管辖区将培训工作人员作为应用程序管理员，并将该应用程序用作诊所 - 为基础的工具。我们的主要目标是通过提供同伴互动来改善艾滋病毒结果， 有针对性的保留和遵守消息传递，以及交互式跟踪器和提醒合二为一 智能手机应用程序。我们的具体目标是： 目标 1：比较 PPA 支持的 HIV 护理与常规护理的有效性 新诊断或重新参与高优先级年轻人的艾滋病毒护理和病毒抑制 患有艾滋病毒。 目标 2：确定预测用户对主要 PPA 组件的参与度的因素，以及 对护理保留、病毒抑制和艾滋病毒相关耻辱感的相关影响。 目标 3：确定各个研究中心的干预措施采用情况、可用性、保真度和成本。 这些目标将通过一项由 250 名受试者参与的平行队列设计随机对照试验来实现 来自指定高优先级地点的新诊断或脱离护理的 YPWH。参加者将是 1:1 分配以在研究进入时接收 PPA 应用程序或延迟干预组，其中 他们将接受为期 6 个月的常规护理和注意力控制。这将允许 在诊断调整的最早阶段进行有效性评估，同时 考虑到纵向结果效应。
