Preparing for PrEP resources:
PrEP Fact Sheet - AVAC, November 2009
PrEP Primer - AVAC, November 2009
This new resource
that provides an introduction to pre-exposure
prophylaxis (PrEP), including basic information
on PrEP strategies being studied, the
scientific rationale for PrEP, the state of the
research, who is involved in PrEP, what
additional research may be needed, and how to
prepare for upcoming trial results.
Anticipating/Understanding
results from PrEP trials (English and Spanish) - AVAC,
August 2008
This report provides background
on PrEP research, the status of current
clinical trials, and issues concerning
effective delivery should PrEP prove effective.
It closes with a list of priority issues that
need attention from governments, global health
institutions, donors, researchers, and
advocates.

What is iPrEP?
Various intermittent dosing concepts have been
discussed. To learn more about what the field
is considering, check out the iPrEP

Meeting
Summary for Trials of Intermittent Dosing of
Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) - AVAC Think
Tank, December 2008
In December 2008, AVAC
held a one-day think tank where colleagues from
multiple agencies and research disciplines
discussed key scientific questions to be
addressed in evaluating the merits of future
prevention research on intermittent use of
pre-exposure prophylaxis (“iPrEP”) for
prevention of HIV.
Preparing
for PrEP: Policy, Practice and Politics
Colleagues from multiple
disciplines met for a one-day, AVAC-sponsored
think tank examining how PrEP for HIV
prevention might be funded or reimbursed
through insurance mechanisms in the United
States should it prove safe and effective. The
think tank took forward discussions on PrEP
implementation strategies by identifying key
regulatory, legal, and financial challenges to
PrEP implementation.
