A Study of the Use of Hepatitis C Positive Donors for Hepatitis C Negative Lung Transplant Recipients With Post-transplant Treatment With Mavyret

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis C
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03523871
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

Patients who are Hepatitis C Negative (HCV negative) and are on the waiting list for a lung transplant at NYULH who consent to participate in this study will receive a lung transplant from a deceased donor that is HCV positive. Patients will initiate treatment for HCV with the pan-genotypic agent, Mavyret, on the day of surgery and will complete the full 8-week treatment course. Patients will be monitored post-transplant for the development of viremia, and for the time course of clearance of viremia among those who develop viremia.
