Project T is a study for HIV negative gay & bisexual men and transgender women (MTF). It's looking to see if it is safe for HIV negative people to take tenofovir, a commonly prescribed pill used for HIV treatment, and offer a suggestion of whether it may reduce the risk of HIV infection. This prevention method is called pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP. Right now, we don't know if it works that way.
Project T was also designed to measure whether the simple act of taking a daily pill might affect risk behavior.
The last Project T study visits happened in July, 2009. Results from the study should be available later this year.
