About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for End Stage Liver Disease focused on measuring HCV, Epclusa, ESLD

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Recipient is Age ≥ 18 years
  • Met Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) transplant center criteria, listed for liver transplant
  • HCV naïve
  • Able to sign informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positivity
  • Need for dual organ transplant
  • Any contra-indication to liver transplantation per center protocol

Sites / Locations

  • Masschusetts General Hospital

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Treatment with Direct Acting Antiviral (DAA) Fixed Dose Combination

Arm Description

12 weeks of HCV treatment with medically appropriate direct acting antiviral

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of Participants With Undetectable Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Viral RNA
Number of dosed subjects with negative HCV viral RNA at 12 weeks after the last dose of treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events and Out of Range Lab Values
Safety and tolerability of direct acting antiviral therapy in the liver transplant patient will be monitored by quantifying the number of treatment related adverse events per patient and evaluating clinically significant out of range laboratory results as compared to baseline/pretreatment values per patient.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single center study for the donation of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-positive livers to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
Detailed Description
Patients will be selected based on diminished likelihood of receiving a liver from the waitlist within a period during which they would be likely to succumb to severe comorbidities. This will be determined in part through use of a patient's Model of End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score, listing status, and clinical judgment. To ensure maximal benefit for the recipient, only high quality donor livers will be accepted.
