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 characterizing the experience of administration of 4 weeks of pan-genotypic DAA therapy in kidney transplantation to prevent the transmission of hepatitis C virus infection from an HCV-positive donor kidney to an HCV-negative recipient.

Detailed Description

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

The goal of this study is to determine if the administration of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir (G/P) for 4 weeks beginning in the immediate peri-transplant period prevents establishment of HCV infection in HCV negative recipients receiving transplanted kidneys from HCV RNA positive donors.
