About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Hepatitis C Virus Infection focused on measuring liver transplant, hepatitis C, Gilead, Communicable Diseases, Infection, Liver Diseases, RNA Virus Infections

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent or for those individuals where hepatic encephalopathy affects their ability to provide initial or ongoing consent, has an appropriate and legally-authorized representative (LAR) willing and able to provide consent on behalf of the individual.
  • HCV RNA infection with quantifiable virus at screening
  • Must have chronic genotype 1 or 4 HCV infection for ≥ 6 months by medical history or liver biopsy
  • Currently on the liver transplantation wait list
  • Screening electrocardiogram (ECG) without clinically significant abnormalities.
  • A negative serum pregnancy test result is required for females

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any previous solid organ transplant
  • Any serious or active medical or psychiatric illness which, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with participant's treatment, assessment, or compliance
  • HIV infection or a positive hepatitis B virus surface antigen result
  • History of malignancy (with exception of hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria, certain resolved skin cancers or other early cancer for which surgical resection is considered to be completely curative)
  • Treatment with any approved or experimental medication with known anti-HCV activity within 1 month prior to screening date
  • Prior exposure to an HCV non-structural protein (NS)5A inhibitor
  • Patients on hemodialysis prior to or at the time of transplantation will be excluded
  • Creatinine clearance (CLcr) < 40 mL/min at screening or < 40 mL/min on day of transplant
  • Participation in a clinical study with an investigational drug or biologic within 28 days prior to screening visit
  • Receipt or planned receipt of an organ from an HCV positive donor

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

LDV/SOF

Arm Description

Participants with genotype 1 or 4 HCV who are undergoing liver transplant will receive one dose of LDV/SOF prior to the transplant and then will receive LDV/SOF once daily for 4 weeks following the transplant.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) 12 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12)
SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA < the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ; ie, 15 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.
Percentage of Participants Who Prematurely Discontinued Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With SVR 4 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4)
SVR4 was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 weeks after stopping study treatment.
Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure
Virologic failure was defined as: End of treatment virologic failure: Completed 28 days LDV/SOF treatment and had HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ at last measurement on treatment Virologic relapse: Confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at last on-treatment HCV RNA measurement.
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ While on Treatment at Days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21, and 28
