HIV Reengagement and Assessment Mobile Program (Project RAMP)
NCT04151498 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The North Carolina Bridge Counselor system is designed to help link out of care HIV positive patients back into HIV care. It has improved initial linkages and patient re-engagement overall, but for a sizable group of patients, the current system has not been effective, leaving a population of hard-to-reach, lost-to-care patients who remain out of care. There is limited understanding of the lived experiences of patients who fall out of HIV care and become recalcitrant to re-engagement because they are difficult to reach and therefore underrepresented in research. Out of care HIV+ patients who have not reengaged in care following the standard of care who chose to enroll in the study will participate in 2 semi-structured interviews and receive a field-based HIV re-engagement and treatment intervention (Project RAMP). Project RAMP will consist of up to 4 visits from an outreach research nurse designed to serve as an "on-ramp" to HIV care. At these visits, the outreach number will counsel on HIV care and treatment and obtain a medical history and labs. Results will be communicated to the participant's clinic provider in an effort to both encourage the patient to return to care and facilitate more rapid antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation by the clinic provider. The research team will also provide the participant in-person assistance with scheduling a clinic visit. Clinic providers may re-initiate ART prior to the reengagement clinic visit, with adherence support provided by the outreach nurse.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04151498
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04151498 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 30 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, which has 725 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with HIV/AIDS appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Qualitative Interview is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04151498 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include North Carolina. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
