THE REAL-WORLD INSIGHTS OF PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV SHARED THROUGH ELECTRONIC DEVICES (RISE) STUDY
Background
The “Real-world Insights of PLHIV Shared through Electronic Devices” (RISE) study was a cross-sectional survey designed to obtain an up-to-date understanding of the impact living with HIV has on patients’ lives in the US. This study aims to obtain a current understanding of the impact HIV has on patients’ lives in the United States and to evaluate health related quality of life, internalized stigma, and general satisfaction in PLHIV who have achieved viral suppression.
Design
A total of 1226 participants who were at least 21 years old with a self-reported diagnosis of HIV were included in the study. Additionally, all participants possessed a smartphone with internet access and were able to read English or Spanish. As part of the cross-sectional survey design, participants completed the RISE survey on a customized mobile application downloaded directly to their mobile device.
The study intervention flow included an initial outreach phase with a study introduction, four screening questions, and electronic consent. After completing initial outreach, participants downloaded the RISE study app via Apple or Android App Stores. Lastly, participants completed RISE study questionnaires via the app. The survey included a sociodemographic and/clinical form, and 7 validated patient-reported outcome measures (i.e. adherence, HIV-SDM). An additional qualitative assessment of PLHIV’s amenability to using the online application platform for PRO data collection is also being conducted.
Primary Objective
- Explore the potential of a novel PRO data collection method using electronic administration of a survey via mobile phone app
Conclusions
- Payers believe that RWD offers enormous potential for decision-making, especially in resource allocation or policy and formulary design.
- HIV patients still have unmet needs related to health-related quality of life that require consideration from a variety of stakeholders, including education and access to treatment to improve adherence.
- Electronic mobile patient surveys can be beneficial to inform decision-making in a wide range of diseases, including diabetes, asthma, and oncology.
