Three Novel Patient-Reported Outcome Measures to Assess the Patient Experience With Daily and Weekly HIV Oral Antiretroviral Therapy.

Background: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) can provide data on the barriers and facilitators of adherence to daily oral antiretroviral therapy (OART) regimens. We aimed to develop PROMs to understand the perspectives of people with HIV (PWH) on (1) facilitators/barriers to daily OART regimen adherence and (2) a hypothetical switch to a long-acting (LA)-OART regimen.

Methods: Following the US food and drug administration patient-reported outcome guidance, targeted literature reviews and concept elicitation interviews with clinicians (n = 7) and PWH (n = 28) were conducted to develop conceptual models (CMs) of facilitators/barriers to OART regimen adherence.
