HIV and syphilis self-testing study for men who have sex with men
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving at-home HIV and syphilis self-test kits to men who have sex with men (MSM) can help more people learn their status and get linked to care. It also looks at how sharing test results with partners might increase testing and prevent the spread of infections.
