PRO-ACT: Prevention of De Novo HCV With Antiviral HCV Therapy Post-Liver

In this study, subjects that do not have Hepatitis C virus (HCV) will be transplanted with
livers or kidneys from donors who do have HCV. Medications that are used to treat HCV will be
given to the study subjects shortly after transplant to protect them from developing the
problems HCV can cause to the liver.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Adult (≥ 18 year-old), wait-listed for primary kidney or liver transplant without a
potential suitable living donor or for simultaneous liver kidney transplant;

- HCV non-infected at the time of transplant. Subjects who were previously HCV infected
but who have had documented SVR12 are eligible to participate;

- Agree to use two methods of birth control during the study;

- Donor characteristics: serum HCV NAT-positive and negative for hepatitis B surface
antigen. For liver transplant: pre-donation liver biopsy with no fibrosis (F0) or
minimal fibrosis (F1). For kidney transplant: kidney donor profile index < 85%.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Donor and/or recipient HIV infection

- Subject pregnant or nursing

- Donor and/or recipient Hepatitis B surface antigen positive

- Kidney-pancreas transplant

- Single organ liver recipients who received hemodialysis for more than 7 days prior to
liver transplantation

- Kidney recipients: on dialysis for > 5 years at time of Screening; subjects sensitized
with panel reactive antibody > 80%; for single organ kidney transplant, subjects with
advanced liver fibrosis (Knodell stage 3) or cirrhosis

- Individuals being treated with and needing to continue rifabutin, rifampin,
carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, oxcarbazepine, St. John's wort (Hypericum
perforatum), medium- or high-dose rosuvastatin or atorvastatin, or high-dose proton
pump inhibitors (See Concomitant Medications).

- Individuals treated with amiodarone within 42 days of organ transplant.
