The Global Impact of Diversifying PrEP Options: Results of an International Discrete Choice Experiment of Existing and Potential PrEP Strategies with Gay and Bisexual Men and Physicians.

To improve current and future use of existing (oral, injectable) and potential future (implants, douches) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) products, we must understand product preferences relative to one another, among gay and bisexual men (GBM), and physicians who prescribe PrEP.

Preferences Among Physicians and Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM) for a Long-Acting, Removable Implant for HIV Prevention: A Discrete Choice Study.

To end the HIV epidemic, we must understand the needs and preferences of groups most affected by HIV (e.g.
