PrEP IMPACT Trial

A pragmatic health technology assessment of PrEP and implementation

Project Summary

To plan a programme to introduce HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in England, NHS England and Local Authorities need to know how many people need PrEP, how many will want to take it and for how long. In order to find this out, we are conducting this research. Everyone who takes part will have access to PrEP.

The PrEP Impact trial will answer three important questions:

  1. How many people attending sexual health clinics need PrEP?
  2. How many of these start PrEP?
  3. How long do they need PrEP for?
