Trial summary

Study subjects active on the waiting list for a heart transplant at the NYU Langone Transplant Institute who are hepatitis C (HCV) negative will receive a heart transplant from a donor who tests positive for HCV. The study will entail surveillance for the development of HCV viremia post-transplant. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Single-center Pilot Study of the Use of Hepatitis C Positive Donors for Hepatitis C Negative Heart Transplant Recipients With Post-transplant Treatment of Hepatitis C Viremia With Mavyret

Study subjects active on the waiting list for a heart transplant at the NYU Langone Transplant Institute who are hepatitis C (HCV) negative will receive a heart transplant from a donor who tests positive for HCV. The study will entail surveillance for the development of HCV viremia post-transplant. Patients who develop HCV viremia post-transplant will be treated with an FDA-approved, pan-genotypic direct acting antiviral drug, Mavyret. Patients who are treated with Mavyret will be monitored for clearance of viremia and for sustained virologic response.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intervention armExperimentalHCV negative patients will receive a heart transplant from a HCV positive donor. Post-transplant, there will be surveillance for the development of viremia, and treatment of viremia. Following treatment, there will be surveillance for a sustained virologic response to HCV treatment.

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sustained Virologic Response After Treatment

    Percentage of patients with sustained virologic response after treatment for HCV after heart transplant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Transplant with HCV positive donor, followed by surveillance and treatment of viremia in people with Heart Failure, run by NYU Langone Health at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Feb 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sustained Virologic Response After Treatment (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Feb 2021.
