Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

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.
