Study Design for NIDA CTN Protocols Safe Sex for Men & Safe Sex for Women Participants Men/Women in substance abuse treatment (16 sites) Report unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse during the past 6 months. Interventions Randomly assigned to either: –a standard one session HIV education intervention –5 session gender specific HIV prevention intervention Measurement ACASI Assessments at baseline, 3 & 6 mo. follow up Primary outcome: number of unprotected vaginal and anal sexual intercourse occasions.

Secondary Outcomes Attitude towards condoms Possession of condoms Intent to use condoms Condom Use Skills Use of condoms Sex under the influence of drugs or alcohol Frequency of “outer course” Number of sexual partners

Background HIV Risk Behavior  Engaging in sex while under the influence of drugs or alcohol is common among men in substance treatment.  At baseline assessment  71% reported some sex under the influence in past 90 days  39 % reported sex under the influence during their most recent sexual event.  Sex under the influence is more likely to occur with a casual partner than a regular partner HIV Prevention in SA Treatment  Most HIV prevention programs encourage people not to engage in sex under the influence.  However, how to change that behavior is often not addressed outside of “just say no.”

Conclusions An intensive gender specific HIV prevention intervention was associated with a reduction in sex under the influence of drugs or alcohol for men in treatment. There was a significant difference between the interventions at 3 the month follow up, but not at 6 months. Sex under the influence occurred more frequently with casual compared to regular partners. Sex under the influence occurred more frequently with methadone maintenance patients compared to outpatient psychosocial program patients.

Limitations The outcome data was self report, although social desirability was lessened with ACASI methodology. Sample size limits power for exploring more complex interactions. Generalizations are somewhat limited by 67% rate of completing follow up assessments The active ingredient for the effect is unclear.

Implications Findings point to the need for treatment programs to address the “sex under the influence” issue in treatment. Future studies may want to explore differences noted between methadone and psychosocial program patients. Future studies should explore if patients adopt suggestions to enhance sex without drugs made in HIV/STI prevention groups.
