Declarations
:
: The PrEP Pregnancy Registry was approved as a sub-study under the Path to Scale study protocol by the Malawi National Health Sciences Research Committee (NHSRC), protocol #23/10/4205, and the Georgetown University Institutional Review Board (IRB), protocol #00007311. It is jointly implemented and evaluated alongside the PRI 3 SM-PrIMO study protocol, which also received NHSRC approval under protocol #23/08/4178 and UNC Chapel Hill IRB approval protocol #23-2220. Both studies are conducted in accordance with the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki.Individual consent is not obtained, as the registry is designed to reflect routine programmatic data collection. However, verbal consent is sought for follow-up to document pregnancy outcomes. Additional written consent is obtained for the nested PRI3SM-PrIMO Study safety cohort. All data will be de-identified for analysis. The registry evaluates the safety of only the US. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved and WHO-recommended PrEP options; oral TDF/FTC or TDF/3TC and injectable CAB-LA among pregnant women in real-world service delivery settings.
