Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients treated for chronic hepatitis C (HCV) with zepatier (grazoprevir/elbasvir) prior to kidney transplant will have a stronger immune response compared to patients treated after kidney transplant. 25 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and HCV will be treated with zepatier and 25 kidney transplant recipients with chronic kidney disease will be treated with zepatier. Blood markers of immune function will be monitored in both groups to determine their response to therapy.

Conditions

  • Hepatitis C
  • Renal Insufficiency, Chronic
  • Disorder of Transplanted Kidney

Interventions

DRUG

Post-transplant Grazoprevir and Elbasvir

Treatment will be started in the post-transplant patients on day 0 with the combination pill zepatier, containing grazoprevir 100mg/elbasvir 50mg by mouth once daily. The medications will be continued for a total of 12 weeks (16 weeks if resistance mutations, RAVs, are detected)
