Adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is critical for people with HIV (PWH) to achieve and maintain virologic suppression and minimize drug resistance. This study aimed to use real-world data to characterize ART adherence and its effect on quality of life (QoL) in PWH. Data were drawn from the Adelphi HIV Disease Specific Programme™, a cross-sectional survey of physicians and PWH in the United States, conducted June-October 2021.

Uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in the United States (US) remains below target, despite reported high efficacy in prevention of HIV infection and being considered as a strategy for ending new HIV transmissions. Here, we sought to investigate drivers for PrEP use and barriers to increased uptake using real-world data. Data were drawn from the Adelphi PrEP Disease Specific Programme, a cross-sectional survey of PrEP users and PrEP non-users at risk for HIV and their physicians in the US between August 2021 and March 2022.

The present study assessed the prevalence of rectal urgency and its association with disease activity and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) among patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) in a real-world setting.

Methods: Data were drawn from the 2017-2018 Adelphi IBD Disease Specific Programme™, a multi-center, point-in-time survey of gastroenterologists and consulting adult patients with UC or CD in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Background: To describe variations in treatment patterns, clinical outcomes, patient-reported outcomes (PRO), and physician and patient satisfaction in patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC) treated with tofacitinib in a real-world setting.

Methods: Data were drawn from the Adelphi UC Disease Specific Programme™, a point-in-time survey of physicians and their consulting patients in the US and Europe. For inclusion in this analysis, gastroenterologists completed medical record forms for the next seven consecutive consulting patients with confirmed UC, plus a further two patient record forms for patients treated with tofacitinib.
