简要总结
Incorporating Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) treatment into opioid maintenance treatment program clinical protocols is an innovative health care delivery model that has been associated with improved HCV treatment uptake in non-pregnant, drug-using populations. This "medical home" approach would combine HCV and opioid maintenance treatment into one treatment regimen and incorporate the expertise of obstetricians, hepatologists, substance abuse treatment providers and pediatricians into one comprehensive clinical care model. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility/acceptability of a combined, peripartum HCV and opioid maintenance treatment program on adherence to HCV treatment regimens and evaluate the rate of intravenous drug use (IVDU) recidivism, HCV reinfection and health related Quality of Life (QOL) in women with opioid use disorder (OUD) during the first postpartum year.
The protocol involves three separate study phases. All 3 study phases will occur with support from hepatology providers at Magee-Womens Hospital. Phase 1 involves screening, enrollment and a baseline assessment of liver function, HCV infection (genotype, viral load) and blood and urine studies in HCV-infected patients during pregnancy. In Phase 2, subjects will undergo 12 weeks of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir therapy initiated at 2 weeks postpartum. Feasibility/acceptability and adherence to sofosbuvir/velpatasvir will be assessed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks of therapy. In Phase 3, subjects will continue to be followed for 15 months after treatment completion. Treatment effectiveness and sustained virologic response (SVR) will be evaluated at 3 months and rates of IVDU recidivism, HCV reinfection and patient centered outcomes such as health related quality of life (QOL) will be assessed at 6, 9 and 12 months following treatment completion.

- •Reports participating in any other research study involving drugs or medical devices within 60 days or less prior to enrollment
- •Ongoing illicit drug use evidenced by positive urine drug screen with appropriate confirmatory testing for anything other than marijuana since the first prenatal visit that cannot be explained by a prescribed medication
- •Breastfeeding or pumping and feeding infant breastmilk
- •At screening or enrollment, as determined by the Protocol Chair, any significant uncontrolled active or chronic cardiovascular, renal, liver, hematologic, neurologic, gastrointestinal, psychiatric, endocrine, respiratory, immunologic disorder or infectious disease (other than Hepatitis C)
