This study examined female sex workers' evaluation of ethically relevant experiences of participating in an HPV4 vaccine clinical trial conducted in Lima, Peru (the Sunflower Study). The Sunflower Study provided all participants with HPV testing, treatment for those testing positive, and access to the vaccine for all testing negative. Themes that emerged from content analysis of interviews with 16 former participants included the importance of respectful treatment and access to healthcare not otherwise available and concerns about privacy protections, the potential for HIV stigma, and poststudy abandonment.
本研究考察了女性性工作者对参与在秘鲁利马开展的一项四价人乳头瘤病毒(HPV4)疫苗临床试验(向日葵研究)中与伦理相关经历的评价。向日葵研究为所有参与者提供了HPV检测、对检测呈阳性者的治疗,以及对所有检测呈阴性者的疫苗接种机会。对16名 former participants(此处疑有误,可能是former participants,即“前参与者”) 的访谈内容分析中出现的主题包括受到尊重对待和获得其他途径无法获得的医疗保健的重要性,以及对隐私保护、HIV污名化可能性和研究后被遗弃的担忧。
