Summary

This trial tests if a mobile therapy can help treat stimulant use disorder and keep HIV viral loads suppressed in gay men with HIV.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men living with HIV who use stimulants and aren't currently in drug treatment. They must be over 18, patients at certain clinics in Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth, Fort Lauderdale, or Los Angeles, not have severe psychiatric symptoms or cognitive impairment, and be less than 90% adherent to their HIV treatment.
What is being tested?
The study tests if reSET—a mobile app approved by the FDA—helps men who have sex with men manage stimulant use disorder while maintaining stable HIV viral load suppression. Participants will either receive standard care or use the reSET app alongside their usual treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Since reSET is a digital therapeutic application designed to support substance abuse treatment without using medication, it does not have traditional side effects like drugs do. However, users may experience stress or frustration if they find the technology challenging.
