Depending on study progress, these bodies may recommend a trial to continue as is, be modified or stopped. Six such reviews were conducted during the implementation of the VOICE study. We describe the impact of Data & Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) recommendations on continued study participation in Kampala, Uganda, including retention, researchers’ motivation to continue the study, and community perceptions and attitudes about the study.enDSMB OutcomesParticipationHIVUgandaImpact of DSMB Outcomes on Participation in HIV Prevention Trials: The VOICE Study Experience in Kampala, UgandaArticle
