- W4224087501 abstract "Introduction The global incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) has been rapidly increasing over the past decade, with more than one million curable STIs being acquired daily. Young women in sub-Saharan Africa have a high prevalence and incidence of both curable STIs and HIV. The use of doxycycline as a prophylaxis to prevent STI infections is promising; however, clinical trials, to date, have only been conducted among men who have sex with men (MSM) in high-income settings. We describe the characteristics of participants enrolled in the first trial to determine the efficacy of doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) to reduce STI incidence among women. Methods This is an open-label 1:1 randomized clinical trial of doxycycline PEP efficacy to reduce incident bacterial STIs – Neisseria gonorrhoeae , Chlamydia trachomatis , and Treponema pallidum – among Kenyan women aged 18 and 30 years. All were also taking HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). We describe the baseline characteristics of participants. Results Between February 2020 and November 2021, 449 women were enrolled. The median age was 24 years (IQR 21-27), the majority were never married (66.1%), 370 women (82.4%) reported having a primary sex partner, and 33% had sex with new partners in the 3 months prior to enrolment. Two-thirds (67.5%, 268 women) did not use condoms, 36.7% reported transactional sex, and 43.2% suspected their male partners of having sex with other women. Slightly less than half (45.9%, 206 women) were recently concerned about being exposed to an STI. The prevalence of STIs was 17.9%, with C. trachomatis accounting for the majority of infections. Conclusion Young cisgender women using HIV PrEP in Kenya and enrolled in a trial of doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis had a high prevalence of curable STIs and represent a target population for an STI prevention intervention." @default.
