Brief Summary

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

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of transplanting kidneys from Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected donors into recipients without HCV infection

Detailed Description

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

This will be an open label, prospective, interventional, proof of concept study to evaluate the feasibility and safety of kidney transplant from HCV positive donors into HCV negative recipients using treatment with pan-genotypic direct acting antiviral therapies (DAAS) for treatment of post-transplant HCV transmission
