Accomplished and Planned Activities to Date Accomplished ¡ ¡ Three subcommittee conference calls Announcement in “Notes to the Field” Planned ¡ ¡ Systematic review of all USG funded TE/OR activities Country level funded mechanism for TE/OR activities l ¡ Subcommittee review and catalogue of TE/OR activities in FY 05 COPS Centrally funded mechanism for TE/OR activities l Purpose: ¡ ¡ ¡ l l fill in the gaps, quick hit to get an answer for mid-term adjustment Tailor approaches appropriate to individual focus countries Coordinate efforts for TA and training for TE/OR capacity building Different models possible
SPNS Evaluation Center Model Supports development and evaluation of innovative models of HIV care, typically funding 5 -10 demonstration sites and an Evaluation and Support Center which provides leadership in design and evaluation of interventions including: ¡ Lead and facilitate the demonstration sites in refining interventions and local evaluation ¡ Provide TA to the demonstration sites and responsible for developing centralized training, communication and dissemination activities ¡ Conduct needs assessment of site capacity to perform intervention and participate in cross-site evaluation activities (e. g. data collection and transfer) ¡ Design and conduct cross-site evaluation including development of standardized core data elements (biologic, clinical and psychosocial outcomes) ¡ Develop common evaluation and research protocols ¡ Design and oversee initiative website, plans meetings, site visits ¡ ¡ ¡ Some challenges - working with existing sites that have: diverse interventions in various stages of development different resource needs and capacity/willingness to do evaluation
Timing of Funding 1. Evaluation Center is funded prior to the demonstration sites Example: Prevention with Positives Initiative – UCSF, Steve Morin, PI Advantages: l A head start on planning cross-site evaluation, communication, website and other responsibilities l Develop RFA for demonstration sites Disadvantages: l Takes longer to get interventions up and running l Cross-site is less collaborative 2. Evaluation Center is funded at the same time as the demonstration sites Example: Caribbean Peer Support Initiative – AED, Elvis Fraser, PI Advantages: l Sites work with Center on development of cross site evaluation l Interventions can start sooner Disadvantages: l Decision making less centralized (messy) l Demonstration site RFA is less focused, prescriptive

AIDS Relief Consortium Nigeria/Uganda
Focus of Emphasis Priority 1: Clinical implications of ARV treatment scale-up ¡ What are optimal approaches for ensuring drug adherence and minimizing disinhibition in Emergency Plan focus countries? ¡ What are the characteristics and causes of viral resistance to ARV treatment in Emergency Plan focus countries? ¡ What is the differential effect on patient outcomes for ARV treatment provided by physician versus non-physician providers? Priority 2: Behavior change ¡ What is the effect of the ABC approach to prevention on HIV risk behavior in Emergency Plan focus countries? ¡ What is the effect of widely available care and Tx on approaches to HIV prevention? ¡ What is the effect of PMTCT/PMTCT+ on HIV risk behaviors of participating mothers? Priority 3: Care and support ¡ What are the components of successful care models for OVC? ¡ What are the components of successful palliative care models? Other studies: ¡ Other studies may be conducted based on SI requirements or other needs ¡ Does the administration of single-dose nevirapine reduce mother-to-child transmission in Emergency Plan focus countries? ¡ What are the components of a successful networked health care system? CAVEAT: Need to listen to what the countries define as their TE/OR needs
Challenges/Considerations/Opportunities ¡ Time l ¡ Gaps l ¡ RFAs, standardized outcome measures, results Expect new issues to be identified after FY 05 COP review and development of compendium of TE/OR Diversity of group l l HQ + Field staff Differing perspectives of TE/OR mission ¡ Program evaluation Public health impact ¡ Clinical outcomes/biologic markers ¡
