OBJECTIVE: HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) has been used in France since 2016. Its effectiveness is no longer to be demonstrated. However, follow-up and adherence remain the main pitfalls. The main objective of this study was to identify factors associated with persistence or loss of PrEP follow-up.
DESIGN: An historic cohort of PrEP users was compiled from the database of consultations in the Indre-et-Loire dedicated sexual health centers (CeGIDD) from June 2016 to June 2021.
METHODS: Kaplan-Meier curves were performed to compare the group of persistent PrEP users to the discontinuation group. Factors associated with PrEP discontinuation were identified using Cox modelling, considering time-dependent variables. Final variables included in the model were selected based on the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and clinical relevance.
RESULTS: Over the period, 568 PrEP users were included in the cohort. Median follow-up was 2.3 years. A quarter of users were lost to follow-up within 3 months after PrEP initiation. Sexual risk reduction AIDS community-based support (HR = 0.65[0.42;0.99]), being in a couple (HR = 0.51[0.38;0.68]), and history of syphilis (HR = 0.57[0.40;0.81]) were significantly associated with persistence of follow-up. Remote consultations (HR = 2.74[1.63;4.61]), chemsex practices (HR = 2.01[1.29;3.14]), and side effects (HR=1.72[1.03;2.88]) were significantly associated with a loss of follow-up.
CONCLUSION: These results suggest that more sexual risk reduction AIDS community-based counseling could be a key, necessary for supporting PrEP users in their follow-up pathway. Indeed, AIDS community-based support could be used to build a basis for developing safe pathways. Remote consultations could represent a response to the issue of access to PrEP. To create a significant impact on global HIV incidence, the PrEP offer must be extended, and at-risk PrEP users supported to maintain PrEP use.
