Registered outcomes7

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryEvidence of HIV-1 Infection or Death for Visits up to 104 WeeksFor visits up to week 104
The primary endpoint for the study was cumulative HIV infection or death after a second year of follow-up (i.e. at week 104), one year after completion of the treatment phase, designed to test a durable intervention effect.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Urinalysis Results Positive for OpiatesMeasured through Week 104Urine drug screen were assessed monthly and semiannually.
SecondarySelf-report of Continued Injection Opiate Use in the Last 30 DaysMeasured through Week 104All participants completed interviewer-administered assessments of injection and non-injection drug use at baseline and at semi-annual visits.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Reported Using Injection Equipment (Needles, Syringes, Cookers, Cottons, and Rinse Water) in the Prior 6 MonthsMeasured through Week 104
SecondarySelf-reported Number of Injections in the Last MonthMeasured through Week 104
SecondaryIncident Hepatitis C Infections for Thailand and ChinaMeasured through week 156 in Thailand and 104 weeks in China
HCV antibody using two different HCV EIA assays (Ortho HCV antibody version 3.0 and Wantai HCV antibody assay) at baseline and between 26-156 weeks later. If both HCV EIA antibody assays were nonreactive, then the participant was considered not to be HCV infected. If either assay was reactive, then the Ortho HCV assay was repeated in duplicate. If two of 3 Ortho HCV assays were reactive, then the participant was considered to be HCV infected. Samples that were repeatedly reactive for HCV antibody at a follow-up visit were tested for HCV RNA by the Roche COBAS® AmpliPrep/COBAS® TaqMan® HCV assay. Not all participants had follow-up testing performed in China due to early closure of the study by the Data Safety Monitoring Board on account of futility due to a low HIV incidence (the primary study endpoint). Analysis was done separately for both countries
SecondaryIncident Hepatitis B InfectionsMeasured through week 52
Serum samples were tested at baseline and between 26-52 weeks later for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) using a commercial enzyme immunoassay (EIA) (Abbott Murex HBsAg version 3.0). If the HBsAg test was initially non-reactive, then the participant was considered to be negative for HBsAg. If the HBsAg test was initially reactive, then it was repeated in duplicate. If at least two of 3 tests were reactive, then the participant was considered to be positive for HBsAg.
