Long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) was US Food and Drug Administration-approved in 2021. However, little is known about providers' CAB-LA knowledge, attitudes, challenges, and prescribing preferences for transgender women patients. Understanding this is critical to developing new pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) interventions tailored to transgender women. We conducted 45-min, in-depth Zoom interviews (IDIs) with United States-based health care providers who prescribe PrEP to transgender women. IDIs focused on providers' CAB-LA knowledge/acceptability, willingness to prescribe CAB-LA to transgender women, potential challenges, and solutions to mitigate challenges. Providers ( N = 17) had a mean age of 43 years, and 35.4% ( n = 6) identified as people of color. Most ( n = 12) had basic knowledge of CAB-LA but wanted additional training. All participants found CAB-LA acceptable and were willing to prescribe. Most ( n = 11) anticipated minimal challenges to implementation. Others ( n = 4) reported potential issues, including logistical/scheduling concerns that impede CAB-LA integration and staffing concerns. Many providers expressed support for self-injection ( n = 13) and injections at "drop-in" clinics ( n = 8) to overcome challenges.
长效注射型卡替拉韦(CAB-LA)于 2021 年获得美国食品和药物管理局批准。然而,对于医疗服务提供者在为跨性别女性患者开处方时,对 CAB-LA 的了解、态度、挑战和偏好知之甚少。了解这些问题对于开发新的针对跨性别女性的暴露前预防(PrEP)干预措施至关重要。我们对在美国为跨性别女性开 PrEP 处方的医疗服务提供者进行了 45 分钟的深入 Zoom 访谈(IDIs)。IDIs 主要关注提供者对 CAB-LA 的了解/可接受性、为跨性别女性开 CAB-LA 的意愿、潜在挑战以及缓解挑战的解决方案。提供者(N=17)的平均年龄为 43 岁,35.4%(n=6)为有色人种。大多数(n=12)对 CAB-LA 有基本了解,但希望接受额外培训。所有参与者都认为 CAB-LA 是可以接受的,并愿意开处方。大多数(n=11)预计实施过程中几乎没有挑战。其他人(n=4)报告了潜在问题,包括影响 CAB-LA 整合的后勤/调度问题和人员配备问题。许多提供者表示支持自我注射(n=13)和在“随到随诊”诊所进行注射(n=8),以克服挑战。
