Summary
Individuals will participate in a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) that implements and evaluates the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of crowdsourced partner services (PS) or conventional PS among Chinese men who have sex with men (MSM) living with HIV.
The pilot RCT will include 120 newly identified MSM HIV cases who were born biologically male, aged 18 years old or older, newly identified as HIV positive, had oral or anal sex with a man, had at least one sexual partner in the previous 6 months and live in Guangzhou. Participants will undergo a series of computer-based interviews (baseline and 2 months after enrollment) and will be randomly assigned into two groups in 2:1 ratio (intervention: control) and receive crowdsourced PS and conventional PS, respectively.
