Cabotegravir plus rilpivirine long acting in the US to optimize and measure implementation and experience (CUSTOMIZE) trial

Background
Long-acting HIV treatment will require a paradigm shift for both clinicians and people living with HIV (PLHIV). Supporting clinicians and PLHIV to effectively use long-acting injectables is important for widespread, public health impact in Europe. The proposed study is a mixed-methods hybrid implementation-effectiveness study to help inform successful uptake of the long-acting injectables across US clinical settings.

Goals
The CUSTOMIZE study, a mixed-methods study, evaluated both qualitative and quantitative measures across a range of patient and staff-study participant (SSP) types in the United States (US) to determine the most effective strategies for real-world implementation of the CAB LA + RPV LA injectable regimen. Additionally, the study aimed to identify the barriers to and facilitators of (including solutions for) the successful implementation of the CAB LA + RPV LA regimen in real-world clinical settings.

Design
CUSTOMIZE was a Hybrid III Implementation Effectiveness study conducted over one year, wherein people living with HIV (PLWH) and staff study participants from eight US clinical sites were surveyed at at three different timepoints—baseline, month 4, and month 12. A subgroup of PLWH was selected to participate in interviews via a randomization scheme at baseline and month 12. SSPs were interviewed at month 4 and participated in the monthly facilitation calls (n=8) from June 2019 through January 2020.
