We-INtervention Among Chinese HIV-serodiscordant Male Couples
Evaluating the Effects of the We-INtervention Among Chinese HIV-serodiscordant Male Couples in a Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 21 Jan 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
HIV-serodiscordant male couples, in which one male partner is HIV-seropositive and the other is HIV-seronegative, experience multiple risks in HIV care and prevention. As stigma often hinders such couples' access to support and services, leveraging their relational resources is crucial for optimizing their outcomes. The proposed study will assess the efficacy of the three-session We-INtervention focusing on their relationship dynamics to enhance Chinese HIV-serodiscordant male couples' health and well-being. A total of 160 Chinese HIV-serodiscordant male couples (320 individuals: 160 HIV-seropositive and 160 HIV-seronegative) will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or control arm. In the intervention arm, the We-INtervention will be delivered to both partners of each couple separately. In the control arm, each couple will receive health information pamphlets.
