Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
As a result, the utilization of HCV NAT+ donor hearts for transplantation is rapidly gaining momentum, with the obvious benefits of an enlarged donor pool \[7\]. Appropriately, clinical safety trials are currently underway, including a multicenter effort led by the PI of this proposal. Moreover, since the last \~2 years many transplant centers across the nation have started transplanting HCV NAT+ donor organs as standard of care. We estimate that the number of HCV+ cardiac transplants is quickly outpacing the number of trial participants. Hence, it is imperative that safety assessments and risk analyses 'catch up with the real world'.
