Study Summary

The CATS project is designed to increase understanding of interventions that are feasible and effective in helping injection drug users (IDU) or other patients at high risk of poor medication adherence who are HIV-positive to maintain a high ART adherence. The study will involve: assessing the feasibility and acceptability of using real-time feedback, a wireless technology-updated adaptation of an approach the investigators found to be feasible and effective in China, to promote ART adherence among Chinese patients, including IDU; generating preliminary effectiveness data of real-time feedback on adherence, CD4 count, and HIV viral load; and identifying the factors that explain how real-time feedback influences intervention success or failure. The specific aims of the study are: SA1: Determine the feasibility and acceptability of using real-time feedback, a wireless technology-updated adaptation of an approach we found to be feasible and effective in China, to promote ART adherence among Chinese patients. The investigators will conduct a pilot RCT of the real-time feedback intervention among Chinese patients in order to assess its feasibility and acceptability in this population. SA2: Generate preliminary effectiveness data of real-time feedback on adherence, CD4 count, and HIV viral load. The RCT will allow the researchers to generate rigorous estimates of effect sizes on these important endpoints. SA3: Describe the factors that explain how real-time feedback influences intervention success or failure. The investigators will use a quantitative-qualitative mixed-methods research approach to explore how the intervention influences the experience of adherence support in this patient population.

Primary Outcome

Subjects will participate in the 6-month real-time feedback intervention. Comparison patients will continue to be monitored by Wisepill, but they will remain blinded to the adherence information generated by the Wisepill devices, as will their care providers.

Interventions
