This grant is for advancing the equitable implementation and effective use of biomedical HIV prevention methods, specifically the vaginal ring, among women. It invites research addressing key knowledge gaps related to factors influencing the uptake, adherence, and long-term persistence of ring use in real-world settings. Proposals are sought for developing and testing behavioral interventions designed to encourage consistent use of the vaginal ring. Additionally, the initiative supports implementation science studies aimed at understanding and overcoming barriers to effective ring delivery and optimizing its distribution. The ultimate purpose is to improve women’s access to and successful utilization of this critical HIV prevention tool, ensuring better health outcomes.

| Description: |
This initiative will solicit research to target gaps in knowledge about barriers and facilitators to ring use, interventions to improve uptake, adherence, and persistence on the vaginal ring, and implementation science studies to improve access to and distribution of the ring. Research topics may include, but are not limited to: studies of individual, interpersonal, and structural factors that are barriers and facilitators to uptake of, adherence to, and persistence on the vaginal ring when the ring is delivered in real world settings (i.e., outside of clinical or open label extension trials); development and testing of behavioral interventions to encourage uptake, consistent use of, and persistence on the vaginal ring; and implementation science studies to understand implementation barriers and facilitators to delivery of the vaginal ring, and to optimize delivery of the ring. |
