Project nGage: Dyadic Social Support Intervention for HIV-Positive Young Black Men

Research led by Alida Bouris focuses on the feasibility and efficacy of a dyadic social support intervention to retain HIV-positive young Black men in HIV primary care. Supported by the National Institute of Mental Health, the project aims to enhance engagement in care and improve health outcomes through innovative approaches. The Chicago Center for HIV Elimination plays a key role in implementing the intervention and conducting a randomized controlled trial to assess its impact. By targeting social networks and providing tailored support, the project strives to reduce new HIV transmission events and promote holistic well-being in the community.

14. Continuum of Care for YBMSM N = 626 YBMSM ages 16-26, Project Uconnect Schneider et al., 2014

15. Retention in Care is Key Why focus on retention in care? Key intermediate step in Continuum of Care Connect to medical, mental health and substance abuse care, and other health and social services Chronic disease screening Maintain HIV primary care and medication management Individual health and longevity Missed appointments associated with virologic failure and death (Giordano et al., 2007)

16. Retention in Care Interventions Few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) testing interventions to increase retention in care for YBMSM. Five general strategies to retain in care exist: Peer support groups Multi-modal peer outreach Intensified case management Peer health navigators Financial incentives Rely on external supports: long-term sustainability?

17. Missing: Organic Social Support Often construe social support as non-human support (housing, entitlements, etc.) or exogenous resources Overlook naturally existing sources of social support: Family, friends, partners, mentors, etc. Social support key for people living with HIV and other chronic conditions Messenger is more important than message Perceived expertise, trustworthiness and accessibility (Bouris et al., 2013; McFadden et al., 2014; Schneider et al., 2012)

18. Social Support for PLWH Endogenous supports underutilized due to fears of stigma or discrimination Ongoing and real: associated with higher viral load (Quinn et al., 2017) Social networks emerging as key explanatory factor in HIV epidemic: support, resources, stress and viral load Social network approaches: flexible way to identify the most supportive person(s) in people s networks Avoids a priori assumptions Selects based on supportive function vs. role Tailored for each person (Bouris et al., 2013; Schneider et al., 2012)

19. Pilot Study: Involving Support Confidants (SC) in HIV Primary Care Pilot FQHC study: N=14 Black MSM recently diagnosed with HIV Sociogram: list and draw people who you can rely on in time of need at 1 month and 9 months post-diagnosis Gender, relationship, age, knowledge of SO and HIV serostatus Algorithm to identify most trustworthy and reliable person Findings: 100% disclosure of HIV status to at least 1 SC by 1 month SCs: male friend n=4; sex partner n=1; sister n=1; mother n=2 and female friend n=1 (McFadden et al., 2014)

20. Pilot Study 1: Network Dynamics Figure 1 Prototypical social support network dynamics of two newly infected YBMSM A and B.

21. Project nGage Assess feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of a social support network intervention to retain HIV positive young Black MSM and transgender women in HIV care. Are there sufficient/stable support confidants in networks? Can a network approach identity the right SC? Can SCs be engaged in an intervention/Index s care? Does engaging SCs affect Index s retention in care?

22. Fundamental Premises Living with HIV requires deep and persistent social support Strong social support is associated with improved health and well-being among PLWH Endogenous support systems exist and can be harnessed Use social network approach to characterize and engage appropriate person(s) Select appropriate Support Confidant Provide evidence-based guidance: current research and our pilot/ongoing research (Bouris et al., 2013; Hightow-Weidman et al., 2011; McFadden et al., 2014; Schneider et al., 2012)

23. Recruitment Five FQHCs using flyers and face-to-face recruitment Eligibility Criteria: Identified as Black/African American and aged 16-29 Assigned male sex at birth and spoke English Self-reported anal or oral sex with cisgender male past 2 years Diagnosed with HIV for > 3 months Own a cell phone not shared with other persons Have 1 or more persons in social network who know serostatus > 18 signed consent forms; < 18 signed assent forms Baseline data collection included sociogram and randomization

24. Project nGage Consort Diagram

25. Control Condition Treatment as Usual HIV primary care clinic sites provide: Mental health services Medical case management, including treatment adherence Psychosocial support services Resource counseling Routine medical care and HIV primary care

26. Project nGage Intervention Condition Three Primary Components Selection and invitation of Support Confidant (SC) Single session intervention with individual and dyadic modules Boosters sessions conducted to Index and SC Theoretical and conceptual background Social network diagrams and theory Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills Model Cognitive Behavioral Theory Motivational Interviewing Social support theories/frameworks (Bouris et al., 2013; Bouris et al., 2017)

27. Sociogram and Support Confidant Selection Please identify people in your life with whom youshare personal information with and can count on in a time of need. When we say personal information, we mean private things about yourself that you might not tell everyone. List up to 10 network members: first 5 populate sociogram Gender, relationship, age, knowledge of sexual orientation and serostatus Emotional characteristics: trust, support and betrayal Stability and availability: substance abuse and frequency of moving How are network members connected to one another?

28. Support Confidant Enrollment SC Selection: algorithm and conversation with Index Knows sexual orientation and serostatus Will not disclose sexual orientation and serostatus to others Has not betrayed Index in past 6 months Let Index choose unless abuse screener is positive Invitation to join study from Index participant Support Confidant eligibility criteria: Aged 18 or over and speaks English Owned a cell phone not shared with other persons Written consent: screening for dyadic abuse at all study visits (Bouris et al., 2013; Bouris et al., 2017)

29. Project nGage Intervention Joint Index-SC Session: 20 minutes Importance of HIV primary care and social support for PLWH Client-centered discussion on social support in their relationship SC Individual session: 60 minutes Information on HIV/AIDS, importance of retention in care, and common barriers to retention in care Client-centered conversation to identify and problem-solve potential barriers to providing social support to Index Joint Index-SC session: 20 minutes Jointly identify barriers to retention in care and develop plan to overcome barriers: Care and Support Plan Promote relationship bonding, self-efficacy and problem-solving capacities (Bouris et al., 2013; Bouris et al., 2017)

30. Project nGage Boosters Four telephonic and/or text boosters at 2, 5, 8 and 11 months post- intervention Focus on Care and Support Plan Problem solve challenges on plan / retention in care Screen for abuse and relationship strain Index men: 73.7% success rate SCs: 57.6% success rate Leading reason for missed boosters: Change/discontinuation of cell phone numbers >50% cell phones disconnected or changed over 12 months: up to 6 times for some participants. (Bouris et al., 2017)

31. Data Collection and Measures Interview administered survey in RedCap Directly input answers into computer for sensitive questions Primary outcome: Retention in care Three or more HIV primary care visits in prior 12 months Extracted from medical charts Secondary outcomes: Adherence to ARVs: self-report Viral suppression (< 500 copies per mL) extracted from medical charts Feasibility and acceptability: Quantitative and qualitative

39. Feasibility and Acceptability < 2% of Index did not have a support confidant Intervention acceptable to both parties SC: this was informative, it gave us more insight about relationships, and what you can do to improve your relationship Index: it is helpful...it s informative and you can tell you are building a support. I feel like this is more than a study, it s more long term and is helping our relationship. SC: I liked the idea of y all working with John and helping him find the light...the idea of you taking time to let the other person talk and listen to the person. You didn t just run through yes or no questions. I got a chance to do what I do with my psychiatrist and talk things through and you re gonna put $50 in my pocket. My gut is telling me that this is gonna go somewhere. I got a good vibe and feel...that meant a lot to me that you shook my hand and I put my guard down." Index: I liked that you made me think and talk. There was no judgement here...I didn t feel judged at all and I appreciated that.

40. Discussion Organic social supports can be identified and engaged to improve retention in care for YBMSM Feasible, acceptable AND efficacious GEE results: higher self-reported adherence but no differences in viral suppression Viral suppression key for eliminating HIV in Chicago Intervention content emphasized retention Future iterations to add focus on adherence Younger men may need additional supports: age and development considerations

41. Discussion Dyadic interventions: difficult to schedule two people Chaos and struggle: Index AND SC Relational and financial challenges Mental health struggles Support the support person Not all SCs are created equal: who is the optimal SC? Potential for differential effects Staff intensive: scalability and cost-effectiveness

42. Limitations and Next Steps Convenience sample: findings may not generalize to other populations or settings Both groups had relatively high rates of baseline retention, ARV adherence, and viral suppression: Different results with community-based sample? nGage powerful enough to generate effect above and beyond baseline retention Pathways of influence unknown: not powered for mediation Stigma, support, motivation, etc.? Durability beyond 12 months unknown

43. Limitations and Next Steps Can this model be used to address other steps in Continuum? PrEP? Are there effects for SCs and other network members? Limited data collected from SCs Project WERK (Wellness, Encouragement, Respect and Kinship) for HIV-negative YBMSM to stay retained in PrEP Care SCs have asked to be linked to PrEP care Feasible and acceptable and similar challenges HPTN 061: social network support associated with lower odds of seroconversion (Hermanstyne et al., 2018) How to integrate/scale up organic social supports in routine clinical care?
