Daily oral PrEP can virtually eliminate HIV acquisition risk when prevention-effective adherence is achieved. TFV-DP below 900 fmol per punch was classified as suboptimal daily oral PrEP adherence. The protocol defines prevention-effective adherence as at least four oral PrEP doses per week. TFV-DP above 900 fmol per punch was classified as prevention-effective PrEP adherence. Follow-up assessments measured TFV-DP in dried blood spots as an objective biomarker of PrEP adherence. Sexual minority men who use stimulants have more difficulty maintaining PrEP adherence and persistence.
