Men who have sex with men (MSM) continue to be disproportionately affected by HIV. The majority of MSM acquire HIV after exposure to the rectal mucosa through unprotected receptive anal intercourse. Post-exposure-prophylaxis (PEP) is an intervention that is used to prevent HIV infection soon (72 hours) after a potential exposure. HIV-negative people with a possible exposure to HIV are instructed to take 28 days of a combination anti-HIV medication regimen, Truvada® + Raltegravir.~This study is being conducted to determine if the uptake of another anti-HIV medication, called Genvoya®, at different time-frames, is different at several body sites, including mucosal tissues. This medication might be considered for on-demand PEP regimens in the future.
