Combining HIV prevention Options with Mental health service delivery for Adolescent girls and young women (CHOMA): results of a pilot hybrid effectiveness‐implementation randomized trial in South Africa
The intervention improved PrEP adherence at Week 4, although the effect was not durable to Week 12, possibly due to retention challenges. Reductions in CMD symptoms were seen in both arms. Findings suggest different mental health and PrEP support interventions may be needed to improve integrated service delivery among AGYW.
