AMP is a prospective cohort study designed to evaluate the impact of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and antiretroviral treatment (ART) on perinatally-infected youth between the ages of 7 and 16 years. AMP enrolled 451 perinatally HIV-infected (PHIV+) children and adolescents and 227 perinatally HIV-exposed uninfected (PHEU) youth receiving care at 15 sites in the United States, including Puerto Rico. The study population was divided into four birth cohorts (1991–1993, 1994–1995, 1996–1997, and 1998–2002). AMP is a component of the Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort Study (PHACS).
