Protocol Summary 
 
Title 
A single-center pilot study of the use of hepatitis C positive donors for hepatitis 
C negative lung transplant recipients with post-transplant treatment of hepatitis 
C viremia with Mavyret 
Short Title 
HCV positive lung donors 
Brief Summary 
Patients who are hepatitis C negative and are on the waiting list for a Lung 
transplant will be enrolled. Study subjects will receive a lung transplant from a 
deceased donor who has tested positive for hepatitis C and post-transplant 
surveillance for viral transmission will be performed. All patients who develop 
hepatitis C viremia will receive therapy with an FDA approved medication, 
Mavyret, for the treatment of hepatitis C. Mavyret is a pan-genotypic hepatitis 
C treatment with a cure rate of over 98%. All the recipients will undergo close 
monitoring and surveillance for the development of hepatitis C viremia post-
transplant. 
They will be monitored in order to ensure that cure of hepatitis C viremia with 
sustained virologic response has been achieved. 
Phase 
Pilot study 
Objectives 
To determine safety and efficacy of the strategy of transplantation of lungs 
from HCV positive donors (with or without evidence of active HCV viremia). 
To characterize the incidence of HCV viremia in recipients whose lung donors 
were HCV positive. For recipients who develop viremia, to characterize the 
time course of the development of viremia, and subsequent clearance of 
viremia after treatment with Mavyret. 
Methodology 
Open label, single treatment arm 
Endpoint 
Percentage of patients with sustained virologic response after treatment for 
HCV after lung transplant. Incidence of viremia after receiving a lung 
transplant from a donor who tests positive for hepatitis C. 
Study Duration 
Two years 
Participant Duration 
One year 
Duration of IP 
administration 
Eight weeks 
Population 
Adult patients active on the UNOS waiting list for a lung transplant

Introduction, Background Information and Scientific Rationale 
 
2.1 
Background Information and Relevant Literature 
 
In New York State, 882 patients have received lung transplants since the year 2000. In that time, 
however 439 patients either died on the waiting list or became too sick for transplant [1]. Thus, for every 
2 patients waitlisted in New York, one patient will die or become too sick for transplant before an organ 
becomes available. The shortage of organs available for lung transplantation directly results in loss of 
life. 
 
At the same time, since 2000, in New York alone, thousands of donor organs available for 
transplantation were discarded because of donor history of HCV infection or exposure [2]. With the 
availability of new and well-tolerated direct-acting antiviral agents, cure rates for chronic HCV infection 
approach 100% [3]. Treatment of HCV naïve transplant recipients who develop donor-derived HCV 
infection post-transplant would be expected to be equally successful. Thus, if post-transplant antiviral 
treatment could enable HCV positive lung donors to be utilized for negative recipients, then the current 
donor pool has the potential to eliminate waitlist mortality. 
 
There is, in fact, precedent for this as a viable strategy to narrow the gap between organ supply and 
demand. A recently study in which HCV positive donor kidneys were transplanted into HCV negative 
recipients demonstrated both excellent outcomes in terms of allograft function, and 100% HCV cure rates 
among the recipients [4]. Other ongoing and unpublished series of kidney transplant recipients [5] and of 
heart transplant recipients [6] have observed that only about 70% of HCV negative recipients who receive 
an organ from a HCV positive donor actually develop HCV viremia post-transplant. This is not surprising 
since the designation for HCV donor positivity by UNOS is a positive test for either anti-HCV antibody or 
HCV RNA. Donors who test positive for HCV antibody alone may have a falsely positive test, or may 
have had a prior exposure to HCV with subsequent virus clearance; in either scenario, there would be no 
risk of transmission of HCV infection to a recipient. It is estimated that one-third of donors designated as 
HCV positive is, in fact, non-viremic [7]. 
 
In this pilot study, we propose utilizing HCV positive donors for HCV negative patients on the waiting list 
for a lung transplant at NYU Langone. Following transplant we will perform serial surveillance for the 
transmission of HCV viremia from donor to recipient.  We will start HCV therapy post-transplant once 
viremia is detected.  The rationale for delaying treatment until viremia is detected is to prevent 
unnecessary treatment in patients who never develop viremia.  The main objective is to determine the 
safety and efficacy of the strategy of transplantation of lungs from HCV positive donors (with or without 
evidence of active HCV viremia). To evaluate this clinical objective, we will characterize the incidence of 
HCV viremia in recipients whose lung donors were HCV positive and for recipients who develop viremia, 
to characterize the time course of the development of viremia, and subsequent clearance of viremia after

With the exception of the use of HCV therapy and the blood testing to evaluate the viremia and the 
response to therapy, all the other aspects of management of the lung transplant recipients will follow 
standard of care practices and protocols for lung transplant recipients at NYU Langone Health. 
 
Willingness to participate in this trial will afford patients quicker access to lung transplantation, and will 
have the potential to reduce if not eliminate waitlist mortality. In particular, the availability of lungs for 
transplantation in New York State is among the lowest in the country and the evaluation of HCV donors 
will increase the opportunities for our waitlisted patients to receive organ offers. 
 
 
2.2 
Name and Description of the Investigational Agent 
Mavyret (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir) 
Manufacturer: AbbVie, Inc., North Chicago IL 
 
Mavyret is an FDA-approved, marketed drug clinically indicated for the treatment of HCV infection in 
patients without cirrhosis. 
 
Its formulation is as an oral tablet containing two antiviral agents: glecaprevir and pibrentasvir 
Glecaprevir is an inhibitor of the HCV NS3/4A protease, which is essential for viral replication. 
Pibrentasvir is an inhibitor of the HCV NS5 protease, which is necessary for RNA replication and virion 
assembly. Mavyret is active against all known strains of HCV. 
 
 
2.2.1 
Preclinical Data 
In vitro studies demonstrating efficacy of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir at preventing replication of all 
strains of HCV were published prior to the initiation of clinical trials for these agents. In vitro the two 
agents act synergistically and have high potency with low rates of resistance. [8] 
 
2.2.2 
Clinical Data to Date 
In Phase 3 clinical trials, 8 weeks of Mavyret therapy achieved high rates (98%) of SVR across all 
genotypes (1-6) of HCV in patients with HCV infection without cirrhosis. Clinical trials involved over 2300 
patients in 27 countries. Based on the results of clinical trials, the FDA approved Mayvret for use in the 
treatment of HCV (all strains) in patients without cirrhosis. (ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers: NCT02651194, 
NCT02642432, NCT02640482, NCT02636595, NCT02604017, NCT02446717, NCT02640157, 
NCT02243293). [9-14] 
 
Included in the clinical trial populations were patients with severe renal impairment (stage 4 or 5 CKD). In 
this population, Mavyret was found to be effective in achieving a high rate of SVR and no dosing 
adjustment was required. [15] 
 
 
2.2.3 
Dose Rationale (if applicable) 
The dose used will be the standard dosing regimen for its FDA approved indication, three tablets taken 
once daily with food (total daily dose: glecaprevir 300mg and pibrentasvir 120mg) 
 
2.3 
Rationale 
There is a vast shortage of available organs for lifesaving lung transplants. Donors with history of HCV 
represent an unutilized source of organs that could potentially eliminate the current waiting list mortality. 
With the emergence of new, FDA approved treatments, HCV disease is now curable in nearly 100% of 
patients who contract it. By transplanting patients with HCV-positive donor lungs, this study will offer the 
benefit of avoiding waiting list mortality, followed by treatment (with the expectation of cure) of HCV in the 
event of transmission.

2.4 
Potential Risks & Benefits 
 
2.4.1 
Known Potential Risks 
Risks of treatment failure: HCV mutation can lead to drug resistance and treatment failure. In patients 
administered Mavyret, the risk of this was 2% or less. For patients with treatment resistant HCV, rescue 
therapy with alternative agents can result in cure of up to 100% depending upon the genotype. Guidelines 
for the treatment of resistant HCV strains are published and updated regularly. [16] 
 
Risks of treatment intolerance: Over multiple clinical trials. The overall rate of medication related adverse 
events leading to permanent discontinuation prior to completion of an 8-week course of therapy was 0.1% 
[17]. 
 
Risk of acute hepatitis C infection: Acute hepatitis C is asymptomatic in 66-75% of patients. The risks of 
acute HCV leading to fulminant hepatic failure are believed to be very low, however case reports of this 
do exist [18]. To minimize this already very low risk, we are starting treatment in all the patients at the 
time of transplant before any viremia is even detected. 
Risk of chronic hepatitis C infection: Patients who prove refractory to all therapy including rescue therapy 
and develop persistent viremia are at risk to develop chronic HCV infection, which has the potential to 
cause cirrhosis/end-stage liver disease, the potential for the need for liver transplantation and/or death. 
We expect our treatment failure rate in this study to be 0%, therefore we expect the risk of chronic HCV 
infection to be 0%. In the event of a treatment failure, the risks of developing chronic HCV must be 
considered. It is estimated that approximately 15-30% of patients with chronic HCV develop cirrhosis/end- 
stage liver disease over 20-30 years. [19]. This risk should be compared to the risk of death on the lung 
transplant waiting list. The reported one-year mortality for a waitlisted patient without a transplant is as 
high 26.7% [20]. 
 
The efficacy of HCV treatment with Mavyret is high (98%). The efficacy of rescue therapies approaches 
100%. Even in the event of a treatment failure, the risk of cirrhosis and liver disease secondary to chronic 
HCV are low. We believe that the survival benefit of receiving an earlier lung transplant, by accepting an 
organ from a HCV-positive donor, far outweighs the risks of HCV exposure and possible treatment failure. 
 
 
2.4.2 
Known Potential Benefits 
The benefit of this study is the ability to obtain a lifesaving lung transplant rather than risk death while 
waiting on the list for a HCV negative organ. In addition, many of the donors with HCV infection have 
otherwise ideal donor characteristics for lung donation and our patients could benefit from access to 
better quality organs. 
 
3 
Objectives and Purpose 
 
3.1 
Primary Objective 
This pilot feasibility study is being conducted to determine safety and efficacy of the strategy of 
transplantation of lungs from HCV positive donors (with or without evidence of active HCV viremia) into 
HCV-negative recipients on the NYU Langone Health lung transplant waiting list, with subsequent anti- 
HCV therapy to treat infection in the recipient. 
 
3.2 
Secondary Objectives (if applicable) 
Secondary objectives will include characterization of the incidence of HCV viremia in recipients whose 
lung donors were HCV positive. 
 
For those who develop viremia we will also characterize the time course of the development of viremia, 
and subsequent clearance of viremia after treatment.

Study Design and Endpoints 
 
4.1 
Description of Study Design 
This will be an open-label, single arm, single center trial of the use of HCV positive lung donors for HCV 
negative recipients, followed by treatment of HCV in recipients. 
 
4.2 
Study Endpoints 
 
4.2.1 
Primary Study Endpoints 
The primary endpoint will be percentage of patients with sustained virologic response after treatment for 
HCV after lung transplant. This endpoint was chosen as primary because it will enable us to evaluate the 
safety of transient exposure to HCV at the time of lung transplantation. The expectation is that all 
patients who develop HCV viremia will achieve SVR (cure) following treatment with Mavyret. 
 
4.2.2 
Secondary Study Endpoints 
Secondary endpoints will include: 
 
1-year patient survival rates in HCV negative lung recipients who receive a lung transplant from a HCV 
positive donor. 
 
Incidence of acute HCV viremia among HCV negative recipients who receive a lung transplant from a 
HCV positive donor. 
 
These endpoints will enable us to assess the risks associated with this approach to lung transplantation 
and will allow us to better understand the risks of this approach to risks associated with remaining on the 
waiting list for a HCV-negative organ offer.

for this trial than would otherwise be normally collected as per standard of care for evaluation for a lung 
transplant. 
 
Written informed consent for actual enrollment in the study will occur in the inpatient setting once 
available organ offer has been identified and the patient is admitted for potential transplantation. 
 
The target sample size will be 20 patients. 
 
5.4.1 
Use of Data Core/Epic Information for Recruitment Purposes 
 
This study will utilize EPIC to identify subjects. 
 
Any recruitment information sent by email will utilize Send Safe email. 
 
Potential subjects will already be known to the study team, as they will be under their care as candidates 
and/or waitlist registrants for lung transplant. The study team will conduct an in person consultation with 
the patients to explain the study as well as discuss the risks, benefits, and alternatives 
 
Approved recruitment language will be used to communicate the reason they are being contacted and 
subjects will be asked if they are interested in participating in this specific study. Should the potential 
subjects agree, the study team will provide the subjects with information regarding the next steps for 
participation. 
 
If a subject requests information regarding opting out of further recruitment for all research, subjects will 
be directed to contact research-contact-optout@nyumc.org or 1-855-777-7858.

5.5 
Duration of Study Participation 
Duration of participation is expected to be 12 months minimum, which will be 10 months of follow up post 
therapy with Mavyret. 
 
5.6 
Total Number of Participants and Sites 
Twenty patients are expected to be enrolled and transplanted. No sites outside of NYULMC will enroll 
patients. 
 
5.7 
Participant Withdrawal or Termination 
 
5.7.1 
Reasons for Withdrawal or Termination 
 
Participants are free to withdraw from participation in the study at any time upon request. An investigator 
may terminate participation in the study if: 
• 
Any clinical adverse event (AE), laboratory abnormality, or other medical condition or situation 
occurs such that continued participation in the study would not be in the best interest of the 
participant 
• 
The participant meets an exclusion criterion (either newly developed or not previously 
recognized) that precludes further study participation 
 
5.7.2 
Handling of Participant Withdrawals or Termination 
Discontinuation of the study agent is not anticipated, as this will place patients at risk to develop acute or 
chronic HCV. For patients who do elect to discontinue the study agent Mavyret due to intolerance or 
SAEs/AEs, the following steps will be taken: 
 
• 
Hepatology consultation to guide management, which could include: 
• 
Continued surveillance for evidence of HCV viremia in patients who had cleared their viremia 
• 
Conversion to an alternate HCV treatment that can be tolerated by the patient 
 
5.8 
Premature Termination or Suspension of Study 
 
This study may be temporarily suspended or prematurely terminated if there is sufficient reasonable 
cause. Written notification, documenting the reason for study suspension or termination, will be provided 
by the suspending or terminating party to the IRB. If the study is prematurely terminated or suspended, 
the PI will promptly inform the IRB and will provide the reason(s) for the termination or suspension. 
Circumstances that may warrant termination or suspension include, but are not limited to: 
 
• 
Determination of unexpected, significant, or unacceptable risk to participants 
• 
Demonstration of efficacy that would warrant stopping 
• 
Insufficient compliance to protocol requirements 
• 
Data that are not sufficiently complete and/or evaluable 
• 
Determination of futility 
 
Study may resume once concerns about safety, protocol compliance, data quality are addressed and 
satisfy the sponsor, IRB and DSMB.

approved agent for the treatment of HCV or to change the marketing for Mavyret. 
 
• 
This investigation does not involve a route of administration, dosing change, or patient population 
change compared to what is FDA-approved for Mavyret 
• 
This investigation will be conducted in compliance with the NYULMC IRB review and consenting 
requirements 
• 
This investigation is not intended to promote or commercialize the product Mavyret. 
 
In this particular situation, it is safe to believe that in most of the cases the transplanted lungs are 
infected with HCV, more likely with a low viral load but still infected, and that the use of Mavyret is for the 
treatment of Hepatitis C, even if at the time of the transplant there is no evidence of a HCV viremia. We 
understand this risk and we will have clear communicating with our patients during the acknowledge 
introduction of this trial (during listing) and also at the time of the consent for the study that we are 
transplanting an organ with high likelihood of HCV infection. Then the use of this medication is for the 
intended use of treating HCV infection. The drug is marketed and will be available through the pharmacy. 
 
6.1.1 
Acquisition 
 
These agents are FDA approved and will be obtained from the NYU pharmacy via standard procedure for 
medication ordering. 
 
6.1.2 
Formulation, Appearance, Packaging, and Labeling 
This is an open label study and the drug will appear as it provided directly from the manufacturer. The 
tablets are pink, oblong-shaped, film-coated, and debossed with “NXT” on one side. The drug will be 
packed in the standard manufacturer’s packing and all standard and package inserts will be retained. 
 
6.1.3 
Product Storage and Stability 
 
Mavyret is dispensed from the manufacturer in a 4-week (monthly) or an 8-week carton. Each weekly 
carton contains seven daily dose wallets. Each monthly carton contains four weekly cartons. Each 8- 
week carton contains 2 monthly cartons. Each child resistant daily dose wallet contains three 100 mg/40 
mg glecaprevir/pibrentasvir tablets. Storage is at room temperature. 
 
6.1.4 
Preparation 
The drug is a tablet for oral ingestion, which requires no preparation. For patients with prolonged intubation 
the medication will be crushed and administered to the patient via nasogastric tube. 
 
6.1.5 
Dosing and Administration 
The dose will be three tablets taken at one time, once daily with a meal. The standard duration of therapy 
is 8-weeks. Patients requiring administration via nasogastric tube will have the same frequency of the 
dosing as oral. When the patient has been extubated and are cleared for oral medications, they will be 
converted to the oral preparation. 
 
6.1.6 
Route of Administration 
Administered orally or via nasogastric tube. 
 
6.1.7 
Dose Adjustments/Modifications/Delays 
No dose adjustments are anticipated. Subjects will be counseled as to the importance of strict adherence 
to the medication regimen. Subjects will be advised to notify the study team of any missed or delayed 
doses. If a dose is missed and less than 18 hours have elapsed since the scheduled time, patients will 
be instructed to take the missed dose with the next meal and resume the regular schedule the following 
day. If a dose is missed and more than 18 hours have elapsed since the scheduled time, then the 
patients will be instructed not to take the missed dose, but to resume the regular schedule the next day.

6.1.8 
Duration of Therapy 
The duration of therapy will be 8-weeks. 
 
6.1.9 
Tracking of Dose 
While in the hospital, nursing staff will give any doses and accountability will be maintained in the 
electronic medical record. Once outpatient, patients will attend regularly scheduled clinic appointments 
for routine care following a lung transplant and medication review will occur on each of these visits to 
ensure that the medication is being taken properly. Laboratory testing for HCV will be performed as 
described. Clearance of HCV and SVR will serve as clinical evidence that the mediation is being taken 
properly. 
6.2 
Study Agent Accountability Procedures 
For therapy that is initiated during the inpatient hospitalization post-transplant, the NYU Langone 
pharmacy will dispense the medication and the bedside nurse will give it to the patient. For outpatient 
therapy, the drug will be distributed to the study subjects together with the standard of care medications 
they will require after a lung transplant. The drug is supplied in either 4-week or 8-week batches. 
Completion of the course will leave no remaining doses. The entire supplied product will be used.

Study Procedures and Schedule 
 
7.1 
Study Procedures/Evaluations 
 
7.1.1 
Study Specific Procedures 
Note that the medical history and medication history that pertains to candidacy for lung transplantation 
are considered standard of care procedures and evaluations for lung transplantation, and are not 
considered here. Patients are not considered candidates for this trial if there is any contraindication to 
their standard candidacy for a lung transplant. As such, procedures and evaluations specific to 
participation in this study include: 
 
• 
Medical history to assess for any history of acute or chronic liver disease, and any prior infection 
with HCV or HBV(Standard of Care/Per Lung Transplant Protocols) 
• 
Medication history to assess for any potential interacting drugs including (amiodarone, statins, 
anti-epileptics, hormonal contraceptives, antipsychotics, recreational drugs, immunosuppressant 
drugs) (Standard of Care/Per Lung Transplant Protocols) 
• 
Physical examination (height, weight, baseline blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, 
assess for absence of jaundice/scleral icterus, abdominal examination to assess for absence of 
hepatosplenomegaly, ascites, abdominal wall varices) (Standard of Care/Per Lung Transplant 
Protocols) 
• 
Laboratory evaluations. Serum evaluation for HCV and HBV quantitative (PCR) testing. Serum 
evaluation for HCV and HBV described in detail below. 
• 
A discussion of if the results of any positive blood tests for HCV infection and discussions of 
response to treatment once treatment has begun. 
 
7.1.2 
Standard of Care Study Procedures 
 
Lung transplantation and all associated procedures will be considered standard of care including: the 
transplant procedure itself and requisite intra-operative procedures and hemodynamic monitoring, post- 
operative ICU-level care, inpatient hospital unit care, outpatient post-operative care including, standard 
induction and maintenance immunosuppression, and standard post-transplant anti-infectious prophylaxis 
(anti-fungal, anti-pneumocystis, and anti-CMV prophylaxis).

7.2 
Laboratory Procedures/Evaluations 
 
7.2.1 
Clinical Laboratory Evaluations 
 
The following tests will be reviewed for patients who are included in the study but will be performed as 
standard of care for lung transplant recipients: 
• 
Hematology: hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cells (WBC) with differential count, platelet 
count 
• 
Biochemistry: sodium, potassium, CO2, BUN, creatinine, total bilirubin, alanine 
aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase 
• 
Coagulation: INR 
• 
Pregnancy test, usually to be done within 24 hours prior to study intervention and results must 
be available prior to administration of study product. 
• 
HBV quantitative (Hepatitis B Virus DNA, quantitative Real-Time PCR) testing: PCR test for 
detection and quantification of HBV viral load, an indicator of active HBV infection. These tests 
are performed as standard of care for patients who receive transplanted organs from a donor who 
is designated “PHS increased infectious risk.” By definition, all HCV positive organ donors meet 
criteria for designation as PHS increased infectious risk. 
• 
HBV serologic testing (HBsAb, HBsAg, HBcoreAb): serologic testing to evaluate for the 
presence of immunity to HBV or the evidence of prior infection with HBV. These tests are 
performed as standard of care for patients who receive transplanted organs from a donor who is 
designated “PHS increased infectious risk.” By definition, all HCV positive organ donors meet 
criteria for designation as PHS increased infectious risk. 
• 
HIV serologic testing (HIV1 and 2 antigen/antibody 4th gen): serologic testing to evaluate for 
the presence of HIV infection. These tests are performed as standard of care for patients who 
receive transplanted organs from a donor who is designated “PHS increased infectious risk.” By 
definition, all HCV positive organ donors meet criteria for designation as PHS increased infectious 
risk. 
 
The following tests will be performed specifically for purposes of this study: 
• 
HCV genotyping: to be performed on all donors in parallel with (not prior to) the transplant, and 
to be performed for any recipient who develops HCV viremia post-transplant. Donor serum will 
be sent to Quest Laboratories for this testing (Hepatitis C Viral RNA, Genotype, LiPA®). 
Recipient testing for HCV genotyping will be ordered by standard ordering procedures through 
Epic as with all other tests. 
• 
HCV RNA Quantitative (PCR) testing: PCR test for detection and quantification of HCV viral load 
• 
HCV serologic testing: serologic evaluation for the presence of anti-HCV antibodies 
 
7.2.2 
Other Assays or Procedures 
 
If after sending the donor serum for HCV genotyping extra donor serum is available, a sample of the 
donor serum (minimum of 0.5cc), will be banked. This will be retained indefinitely in the event that the 
donor genotype testing requires repeating at any time. See below for sample handling and labeling 
details. 
 
7.2.3 
Specimen Preparation, Handling, and Storage 
Deceased donor blood routinely accompanies organs for transplantation to enable any additional testing a 
recipient center may wish to perform. For this study, we will utilize donor serum for purposes of HCV 
genotyping, as outlined above in 7.2.1, because genotyping for HCV positive donors is not performed 
regularly by UNOS. Donor blood accompanying the lung will be received in a red top tube. The whole blood 
will be spun in a centrifuge at 2000rpm x 15 minutes at 4°C. Serum will be removed with a pipette and 
transferred to a cryovials either for storage, or for packaging and shipping to Quest Laboratories for HCV 
genotype testing. The sample sent to Quest Laboratories will be a minimum of 1mL serum and will be 
labeled with donor demographic data only, no recipient data. Per standard specimen handling protocols at

Quest Diagnostics, residual samples will not be retained by Quest. Once results are finalized, Quest 
Diagnostics destroys samples they have tested. 
 
The alternative option for donor blood processing (labeled with donor demographic data only, no recipient 
data) is having the NYU Laboratory process the samples via standard of care and providing the results to 
the research team. 
 
 
The sample banked for storage will be labeled with the donor UNOS identification number (a unique 
transplant identifier that has no patient- derived identifiers), the recipient’s study subject number, at the date 
collected. Banked samples will be stored in a -80°C freezer, located at 403 E. 34th St, 4th Floor. 
 
See attached documents (Section 19) for detailed standard operating procedures for specimen 
processing, collection and shipping instructions from Quest Laboratories, as well as for the accreditation 
documentation for the Transplant Research Lab, where these specimens will be processed and stored. 
intolerances to Mavyret, due to illness associated with acute HCV infection, HCV resistances) will occur 
as clinically appropriate and any AEs/SAEs will be documented as described below. 
 
Recipient blood will be processed at the NYU Laboratory while patient is hospitalized and will be 
processed in local laboratories (Quest, LabCorp) or NYU Laboratory while the patient is outpatient. 
 
7.4 
Concomitant Medications, Treatments, and Procedures 
 
The subjects will receive concomitant medications, which would otherwise be given as standard of care for 
patients undergoing a lung transplant. 
 
7.4.1 
Precautionary Medications, Treatments, and Procedures 
Treatment with amiodarone, digoxin, atorvastatin, lovastatin, simvastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, 
flucastatin, pitavastatin requires special consideration and possible dosing adjustments in patients 
receiving Mavyret and the use of these medications will be discussed by the study team and any dose 
adjustment plan documented in the CRF. 
 
7.5 
Prohibited Medications, Treatments, and Procedures 
 
Treatment with atazanavir, darunavir, lopinavir, ritonavir, efavirenz, rifampin, cyclosporine, ethinyl 
estradiol-containing oral contraceptives, carbamazepine, dabigatran, St. John’s worth will not be 
permitted. 
 
7.6 
Rescue Medications, Treatments, and Procedures 
In the event that a subject fails to achieve SVR with Mavyret, rescue therapy with other marketed agents 
approved for the treatment of HCV will be administered. The rescue treatment will be determined based 
on genotyping and resistance testing, and the choice of drug(s) used will be prescribed under the direction 
of a transplant hepatologist and/or transplant infectious diseases physician.

8.1.1 
Definition of Adverse Events (AE) 
 
An adverse event (AE) is any symptom, sign, illness or experience that develops or worsens in severity 
during the course of the study. Intercurrent illnesses or injuries should be regarded as adverse events. 
 
 
For the purpose of this protocol an adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study 
subject associated with procedures required by this protocol in relation to Mavyret treatment. 
 
An AE does not include the following for this study: 
 
• 
Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date before the 
consent form is signed and before day 1 visit is not an AE. 
 
• 
Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date after the 
consent form is signed that is not related to the study medication. 
8.1.2 
Definition of Serious Adverse Events (SAE) 
Serious Adverse Event 
Adverse events are classified as serious or non-serious. A serious adverse event is any AE that is: 
• fatal 
• life-threatening 
• requires or prolongs hospital stay 
• results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity 
• a congenital anomaly or birth defect 
• an important medical event 
 
Important medical events are those that may not be immediately life threatening, but are clearly of major 
clinical significance. They may jeopardize the subject, and may require intervention to prevent one of the 
other serious outcomes noted above. For example, drug overdose or abuse, a seizure that did not result 
in in-patient hospitalization or intensive treatment of bronchospasm in an emergency department would 
typically be considered serious. 
 
All adverse events that do not meet any of the criteria for serious should be regarded as non-serious 
adverse events.

Any incident, experience, or outcome that meets all of the following criteria: 
• Unexpected in nature, severity, or frequency (i.e. not described in study-related documents such 
as the IRB-approved protocol or consent form, the investigators brochure, etc.) 
• Related or possibly related to participation in the research (i.e. possibly related means there is a 
reasonable possibility that the incident experience, or outcome may have been caused bythe 
procedures involved in the research) 
• Suggests that the research places subjects or others at greater risk of harm (including physical, 
psychological, economic, or social harm).

8.2 
Classification of an Adverse Event 
 
8.2.1 
Severity of Event 
 
For AEs not included in the protocol defined grading system, the following guidelines will be used 
to describe severity. 
 
• Mild – Events require minimal or no treatment and do not interfere with the participant’s daily 
activities. 
• Moderate – Events result in a low level of inconvenience or concern with the therapeutic 
measures. Moderate events may cause some interference with functioning. 
• Severe – Events interrupt a participant’s usual daily activity and may require systemic drug 
therapy or other treatment. Severe events are usually potentially life-threatening or incapacitating. 
 
 
8.2.2 
Relationship to Study Agent 
 
The clinician’s assessment of an AE's relationship to study is part of the documentation process, but it is not 
a factor in determining what is or is not reported in the study. If there is any doubt as to whether a clinical 
observation is an AE, the event should be reported. All AEs must have their relationship to study agent 
assessed. In a clinical trial, the study product must always be suspect. To help assess, the following 
guidelines are used. 
 
• Related – The AE is known to occur with the study agent, there is a reasonable possibility that the 
study agent caused the AE, or there is a temporal relationship between the study agent and event. 
Reasonable possibility means that there is evidence to suggest a causal relationship between the 
study agent and the AE. 
• Not Related – There is not a reasonable possibility that the administration of the study agent 
caused the event, there is no temporal relationship between the study agent and event onset, or 
an alternate etiology has been established. 
 
For all collected AEs, the clinician who examines and evaluates the participant will determine the AE’s 
causality based on temporal relationship and his/her clinical judgment. The degree of certainty about 
causality will be graded using the categories below. 
• Definitely Related – There is clear evidence to suggest a causal relationship, and other possible 
contributing factors can be ruled out. The clinical event, including an abnormal laboratory test 
result, occurs in a plausible time relationship to drug administration and cannot be explained by 
concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals. The response to withdrawal of the drug 
(dechallenge) should be clinically plausible. The event must be pharmacologically or 
phenomenologically definitive, with use of a satisfactory rechallenge procedure if necessary. 
• Probably Related – There is evidence to suggest a causal relationship, and the influence of other 
factors is unlikely. The clinical event, including an abnormal laboratory test result, occurs within a 
reasonable time after administration of the drug, is unlikely to be attributed to concurrent disease 
or other drugs or chemicals, and follows a clinically reasonable response on withdrawal 
(dechallenge). Rechallenge information is not required to fulfill this definition. 
• Possibly Related – There is some evidence to suggest a causal relationship (e.g., the event 
occurred within a reasonable time after administration of the trial medication). However, other 
factors may have contributed to the event (e.g., the participant’s clinical condition, other 
concomitant events). Although an AE may rate only as “possibly related” soon after discovery, it 
can be flagged as requiring more information and later be upgraded to “probably related” or 
“definitely related,” as appropriate. 
• Unlikely to be related – A clinical event, including an abnormal laboratory test result, whose 
temporal relationship to drug administration makes a causal relationship improbable (e.g., the 
event did not occur within a reasonable time after administration of the trial medication) and in 
which other drugs or chemicals or underlying disease provides plausible explanations (e.g., the

participant’s clinical condition, other concomitant treatments). 
• Not Related – The AE is completely independent of study drug administration, and/or evidence 
exists that the event is definitely related to another etiology. There must be an alternative, 
definitive etiology documented by the clinician. 
 
8.2.3 
Expectedness 
 
The Principal Investigator will be responsible for determining whether an AE is expected or unexpected. 
An AE will be considered unexpected if the nature, severity, or frequency of the event is notconsistent 
with the risk information previously described for the study agent. 
 
8.3 
Time Period and Frequency for Event Assessment and Follow-Up 
 
The occurrence of an AE or SAE may come to the attention of study personnel during study visits and 
interviews of a study participant presenting for medical care, or upon review by the DSMB. All AEs 
including local and systemic reactions meeting the criteria for SAEs will be captured on the appropriate CRF. 
Information to be collected includes event description, time of onset, clinician’s assessment of severity, 
relationship to study product (assessed only by those with the training and authority to make a diagnosis), and 
time of resolution/stabilization of the event. All SAEs occurring while on study must be documented 
appropriately regardless of relationship. All SAEs will be followed to adequate resolution. 
 
Any medical condition that is present at the time that the participant is screened will be considered as 
baseline and not reported as an AE. However, if the study participant’s condition deteriorates at any time 
during the study, it will be recorded as an AE. UPs will be recorded in the data collection system 
throughout the study. 
 
Changes in the severity of an SAE will be documented to allow an assessment of the duration of the event 
at each level of severity to be performed. SAEs characterized as intermittent require documentation of 
onset and duration of each episode. 
 
The PI will record all reportable events with start dates occurring any time after informed consent is 
obtained until 30 days (for SAEs) after the last day of study participation. At each study visit, the 
investigator will inquire about the occurrence of SAEs since the last visit. Events will be followed for 
outcome information until resolution or stabilization. 
 
All unresolved serious adverse events should be followed by the investigator until the events are resolved, 
the subject is lost to follow-up, or the adverse event is otherwise explained. At the last scheduled visit, the 
investigator should instruct each subject to report any subsequent event(s) that the subject, or the 
subject’s personal physician, believes might reasonably be related to participation in this study. The 
investigator should notify the study sponsor of any death or adverse event occurring at any time after a 
subject has discontinued or terminated study participation that may reasonably be related to this study. 
The sponsor should also be notified if the investigator should become aware of the development of cancer 
or of a congenital anomaly in a subsequently conceived offspring of a subject that has participated in this 
study. 
 
8.4 
Reporting Procedures – Notifying the IRB 
 
8.4.1 
Adverse Event Reporting 
All AEs will be recorded in AE CRFs by a member of the study team. AEs will be recorded within 3 
business days of the study team being made aware of the AE. The relationship of the AE to the study 
interventions will be noted by the PI. AEs that are deemed definitely related or probably related to the study 
interventions will be reported to the IRB and the DSMB within 3 days of their designation as such. The 
DSMB will determine the need for an emergency meeting between the DSMB and the study team (see

safety oversight below). AEs that are deemed unrelated or not likely related to the study interventions will be 
recorded on CRFs as described above and will be reviewed at quarterly DSMB safety review meetings, and 
at annual review by the IRB. 
 
8.4.2 
Serious Adverse Event Reporting 
All SAEs will be recorded in SAE CRFs by a member of the study team. SAEs will be recorded within 3 
business days of the study team being made aware of the SAE. The relationship of the SAE to the study 
interventions will be noted by the PI. SAEs that are both unexpected and deemed related to the study 
interventions will be reported to the IRB and the DSMB within 24 hours of the PI designation as such. The 
DSMB will determined the need for an emergency meeting between the DSMB and the study team (see 
safety oversight below) or whether these can be reviewed at quarterly meetings. SAEs that are deemed 
unrelated or not likely related to the study interventions will be recorded on CRFs, will be reported to IRB 
and DSMB within 3 days of their designation as such and will be reviewed at quarterly DSMB safety 
meetings. 
 
8.4.3 
Unanticipated Problem Reporting 
Incidents or events that meet the OHRP criteria for UPs require the creation and completion of an UPreport 
form. It is the site investigator’s responsibility to report UPs to their IRB and notify the DSMB. The UP report 
will include the following information: 
 
• Protocol identifying information: protocol title and number, PI’s name, and the IRB project number; 
• A detailed description of the event, incident, experience, or outcome; 
• An explanation of the basis for determining that the event, incident, experience, or outcome 
represents an UP; 
• A description of any changes to the protocol or other corrective actions that have been taken or 
are proposed in response to the UP. 
 
To satisfy the requirement for prompt reporting, UPs will be reported using the following timeline: 
 
• UPs that are SAEs will be reported to the IRB within 3 days the investigator becoming aware of 
the event. 
• Any other UP will be reported to the IRB within 3 days of the investigator becoming aware of the 
problem. 
 
8.4.4 
Reporting of Pregnancy 
If any pregnancy occurs in a study subject, the PI will be notified immediately and the IRB will be notified 
within 3 days of discovery of the pregnancy. No data regarding safety or efficacy of Mavyret in pregnant 
women are available. Standard of care medications utilized for lung transplant recipients have known 
contraindications in pregnancies therefore any pregnancies will need to be managed as per standard of 
care with the lung transplant team. Counseling of pregnant subjects with regard to the risks of continuing 
versus discontinuing Mavyret will occur with patients once counseling with regard to the contraindications 
of the standard of care transplant medications has occurred. 
 
8.5 
Study Halting Rules 
Further enrollment of study subjects will be halted under the following conditions: 
• 
Any patient death occurs and is deemed related to the intervention 
• 
Any SAE deemed related to acute HCV infection occurs 
• 
Any SAE deemed related to Mavyret occurs 
 
The PI will inform the IRB and the DSMB within 24 hours of any of these events. The DSMB and study 
team will convene an emergency meeting as described below. The DSMB will provide recommendations 
for proceeding with any further enrollment. Patients who are already enrolled and receiving Mavyret

treatment will continue to receive treatment unless the DSMB determines that an alternate course of 
therapy should be pursued for already-enrolled subjects. 
 
8.6 
Safety Oversight 
 
It is the responsibility of the Principal Investigator to oversee the safety of the study. This safety 
monitoring will include careful assessment and appropriate reporting of adverse events as noted above, 
as well as the construction and implementation of a site data and safety-monitoring plan. Medical 
monitoring will include a regular assessment of the number and type of serious adverse events. 
 
Safety oversight will be under the direction of a DSMB. This DSMB committee for this study will be 
comprised of individuals with expertise in transplantation, hepatology, infectious diseases and the 
treatment of hepatitis C, and ethics. These individuals will be: 
 
Rebecca Pellett Madan (DSMB Chair) –Pediatric Infectious Disease Arthur Caplan, PhD – Expert in Medical 
Ethics 
 
Vasishta Tatapudi, MD – Transplant Nephrologist 
Shari B. Brosnahan, MD – Pulmonologist 
Nancy Amoroso, MD – Pulmonologist 
Sonja Olsen, MD – Hepatologist 
 
The DSMB Charter with specific outlines of DSMB roles and responsibilities is uploaded as a separate 
attachment in Research Navigator. The DSMB will be notified of all AEs and SAEs as outlined above in 
8.4.1 and 8.4.2. Regular meetings of the DSMB and the study team will occur on a quarterly basis to review 
non-emergent AEs and SAEs.The minimum group required to constitute an adequate DSMB-study team 
meeting will be (either in person or by teleconference): at least 4 of the DSMB members listed above, the 
PI, and at least one coinvestigator. At quarterly meetings the DSMB will evaluate cumulative participant 
safety data and make recommendations regarding the safe continuation of the study. 
 
The DSMB and study team will meet on an emergency basis in the following instances: 
 
• 
Any SAE occurs that is unexpected and deemed related to the study intervention 
• 
Any unanticipated problem occurs that is both serious and deemed related to the study 
• 
intervention 
• 
Any treatment failure occurs or drug resistant HCV strain is identified, and a rescue plan with 
• 
alternate therapy is required 
 
Emergency meetings will occur within one business day of the above-described event occurring or being 
recognized. Any event that prompts an emergency DSMB-study team meeting will be reported to the IRB 
within 24 hours of the event occurring or being recognized.

Clinical Monitoring 
Clinical site monitoring is conducted to ensure that the rights and well-being of human subjects are 
protected, that the reported trial data are accurate, complete, and verifiable, and that the conduct of the 
trial is in compliance with the currently approved protocol/amendment(s), with GCP, and with applicable 
regulatory requirement(s). 
 
10 Statistical Considerations 
 
10.1 Statistical and Analytical Plans (SAP) 
As this is a single-arm observational study, no SAP will apply.

Interventional Template Version: 28 APR 2017 
 
 
10.2 Statistical Hypotheses 
We hypothesize that 100% of patients who develop HCV viremia will achieve SVR after completing an 8- 
week course of Mavyret treatment. 
 
10.3 Analysis Datasets 
 
Subjects will be entered into a study subject dataset which includes de-identified information. This will 
include: donor and recipient demographic data, donor HCV RNA quantitative (PCR), serology, and 
genotyping information, and results of all recipient HCV RNA quantitative (PCR) , serologic, and 
genotyping data obtained throughout the course of the study. 
 
10.4 Description of Statistical Methods 
Since the anticipated study population will be a small size, statistical analyses will be limited to descriptive 
statistics. For patients who develop post-transplant viremia we will be able to compare our HCV cure 
rates to those that are expected for patients who receive treatment with these agents for chronic HCV. 
 
10.4.1 General Approach 
 
The study design will be single arm, open label. Descriptive statistics will include: 
 
• 
Incidence HCV viremia post-transplant (percentage) 
• 
Time course of exposure to development of clinically detectable viremia in those who develop 
viremia (median time to viremia with standard deviations) 
• 
Incidence of sustained clearance of HCV (cure) after treatment of viremia (percentage) 
 
• 
Time course of clearance of viremia after treatment initiation (median time to clearance with 
standard deviations) 
• 
Incidence of treatment failure/treatment resistant strains of HCV (percentage) 
• 
Characterization of distribution of HCV genotypes in patients who develop viremia (percentages) 
Comparison of treatment failure rates to expected treatment failure rates for the treatments used 
(p value for significance will be set at p<0.05 and two-tailed t-test will be used) 
 
 
10.4.2 Analysis of the Primary Efficacy Endpoint(s) 
The primary endpoint will be percentage of patients with sustained virologic response after treatment for 
HCV after lung transplant. 
 
We expect that 100% of patients who are treated will achieve SVR. SVR will be defined as the absence 
of detectable HCV RNA Quantitative (PCR) testing 3 months after the completion of the treatment 
course. Any failure of therapy will be considered significant and will result in the halting of further 
enrollment until further discussed by the safety monitors and the IRB. 
 
10.4.3 Analysis of the Secondary Endpoint(s) 
Secondary endpoint #1: 1-year patient survival rates in HCV negative lung recipients who receive a lung 
transplant from a HCV positive donor. 
Patients will have regular follow-up as standard of care for all lung transplant recipients. Patients survival 
will be readily apparent. Furthermore, all deaths of transplant recipients are required to be reported to 
UNOS. 
 
Secondary endpoint #2: Incidence of HCV viremia among HCV negative recipients who receive a lung 
transplant from a HCV positive donor.

We will be measuring serial HCV RNA Quantitative (PCR) and serologic testing for a minimum of 6-months 
post-transplant. A patient will be considered to be viremic when a post-transplant HCV RNA Quantitative 
(PCR) test is positive. The incidence of viremia will be calculated as a percentage of the patients 
transplanted with a HCV-positive donor who develop HCV viremia by RNA Quantitative (PCR) testing. 
 
10.4.4 Adherence and Retention Analyses 
Adherence to the protocol will be assessed by the study team in direct conversations with thepatients 
during routing visits, and will be assessed clinically by evaluation of HCV viral loads. 
 
Clearance ofHCV will demonstrate adherence to the regimen. Failure to clear viremia will prompt more 
detailed direct patient inquiries regarding and will prompt an evaluation of possible treatment resistant 
strains of HCV as described elsewhere. A rescue course of therapy will be initiated under the direct guidance 
of a hepatologist and/or transplant infectious diseases specialist. 
 
10.4.5 Baseline Descriptive Statistics 
In this study, no designed comparison groups will exist. 
 
10.4.6 Planned Interim Analysis 
Interim analysis not applicable 
 
10.4.6.1 Safety Review 
Any patient death will result in halting of any further enrollment in the study and an assessment of 
 
whether the death was related to HCV exposure, infection, or treatment. Even in the event of a patient 
death, currently enrolled patients who are actively being treated for HCV viremia and tolerating therapy 
will continue to receive therapy so as not to put them at risk for HCV infection and/or the development of 
resistance as a consequence of interrupted therapy. If the patient death is deemed related to a specific 
treatment agent, enrolled patients receiving that same agent will be switched to an alternative therapy. 
 
For any patient who is found to experience a treatment, a formal Hepatology consultation will be obtained 
promptly, and rescue therapy with alternative agents will be initiated under Hepatologyguidance. 
 
10.4.7 Multiple Comparison/Multiplicity 
 
Not applicable. 
 
10.4.8 Tabulation of Individual Response Data 
Since this is a relatively small trial, individual participant data, in particular as pertains to the kinetics of 
the development and clearance of HCV viremia, will be evaluated. 
 
10.5 Sample Size 
20 patients are expected to enroll in this trial. 
We expect that less approximately 70% of patients will develop evidence of HCV infection transmitted 
from the HCV-positive donor and will be treated for HCV infection. We expect that 100% of the patients 
who are treated for HCV viremia will achieve SVR. 
This is a single-arm study with no comparison group. The power to detect a difference in observed versus 
expected depends upon the true efficacy of the therapy. The reported efficacy of the therapy is 98%. 
With an estimated 7 patients who will be treated, a single treatment failure will be regarded as a 
significant deviation from the expected outcome.

11 Source Documents and Access to Source Data/Documents 
 
Source data is all information, original records of clinical findings, observations, or other activities in a 
clinical trial necessary for the reconstruction and evaluation of the trial. Source data are contained in 
source documents. Examples of these original documents, and data records include: hospital records, 
clinical and office charts, laboratory notes, memoranda, subjects’ diaries or evaluation checklists, 
pharmacy dispensing records, recorded data from automated instruments, copies or transcriptions 
certified after verification as being accurate and complete, microfiches, photographic negatives, microfilm 
or magnetic media, x-rays, subject files, and records kept at the pharmacy, at the laboratories, and at 
medico-technical departments involved in the clinical trial. It is acceptable to use CRFs as source 
documents. 
 
If this is the case, it should be stated in this section what data will be collected on CRFs and what data 
will be collected from other sources. 
 
The study case report form (CRF) is the primary data collection instrument for the study. All data 
requested on the CRF must be recorded. All missing data must be explained. If a space on the CRF is 
left blank because the procedure was not done or the question was not asked, write “N/D”. If the item is 
not applicable to the individual case, write “N/A”. All entries should be printed legibly in black ink. If any 
entry error has been made, to correct such an error, draw a single straight line through the incorrect entry 
and enter the correct data above it. All such changes must be initialed and dated. DO NOT ERASE OR 
WHITE OUT ERRORS. For clarification of illegible or uncertain entries, print the clarification above the 
item, then initial and date it. 
 
Access to study records will be limited to IRB-approved members of the study team. The 
investigator will permit study-related monitoring, audits, and inspections by the IRB/EC, the 
sponsor, government regulatory bodies, and University compliance and quality assurance groups 
of all study related documents (e.g. source documents, regulatory documents, data collection 
instruments, study data etc.). The investigator will ensure the capability for inspections of applicable 
study-related facilities (e.g. 
 
pharmacy, diagnostic laboratory, etc.). 
 
Participation as an investigator in this study implies acceptance of potential inspection by government 
regulatory authorities and applicable University compliance and quality assurance offices. 
 
 
12 Quality Assurance and Quality Control 
 
QC procedures will be implemented beginning with the data entry system and data QC checks that will be 
run on the database will be generated. Any missing data or data anomalies will be communicated to the 
 
site(s) for clarification/resolution. 
 
Following written SOPs, the monitors will verify that the clinical trial is conducted and data are generated, 
documented (recorded), and reported in compliance with the protocol, GCP, and the applicable regulatory 
requirements (e.g., Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)). 
 
The investigational site will provide direct access to all trial related sites, source data/documents, and 
reports for the purpose of monitoring and auditing by the sponsor, and inspection by local andregulatory 
authorities.

13 Ethics/Protection of Human Subjects 
 
13.1 Ethical Standard 
 
The investigator will ensure that this study is conducted in full conformity with Regulations for the 
Protection of Human Subjects of Research codified in 45 CFR Part 46, 21 CFR Part 50, 21 CFR Part 56, 
and/or the ICH E6. 
 
13.2 Institutional Review Board 
 
The protocol, informed consent form, recruitment materials, and all participant materials will be submitted 
to the IRB for review and approval. Approval of both the protocol and the consent form must be obtained 
before any participant is enrolled. Any amendment to the protocol will require review and approval by the 
IRB before the changes are implemented to the study. All changes to the consent form will be IRB 
approved; a determination will be made regarding whether previously consented participants need to be 
re-consented. 
 
13.3 Informed Consent Process 
 
13.3.1 Consent/Assent and Other Informational Documents Provided to Participants 
 
Consent forms describing in detail the study agent, study procedures, and risks are given to the 
participant and written documentation of informed consent is required prior to starting 
intervention/administering study product. The informed consent document to be used is submitted with 
this protocol. 
 
13.3.2 Consent Procedures and Documentation 
 
Informed consent is a process that is initiated prior to the individual’s agreeing to participate in the study and 
continues throughout the individual’s study participation. Extensive discussion of risks and possible benefits 
of participation will be provided to the participants and their families. Consent forms will be IRB- approved 
and the participant will be asked to read and review the document. The investigator will explain the research 
study to the participant and answer any questions that may arise. All participants will receive 
a verbal explanation in terms suited to their comprehension of the purposes, procedures, and potential risks 
of the study and of their rights as research participants. Participants will have the opportunity to carefully 
review the written consent form and ask questions prior to signing. The participants should have the 
opportunity to discuss the study with their surrogates or think about it prior to agreeing to participate. The 
participant will sign the informed consent document prior to any procedures being done specifically for the 
study. The participants may withdraw consent at any time throughout the course of the trial. A 
copy of the signed informed consent document will be given to the participants for their records. The rights 
and welfare of the participants will be protected by emphasizing to them that the quality of their medical care 
will not be adversely affected if they decline to participate in this study. 
A copy of the signed informed consent document will be stored in the subject’s research record. The 
consent process, including the name of the individual obtaining consent, will be thoroughly documented 
inthe subject’s research record. Any alteration to the standard consent process (e.g. use of a translator, 
consent from a legally authorized representative, consent document presented orally, etc.) and the 
justification for such alteration will likewise be documented.

13.4 Participant and Data Confidentiality 
 
Information about study subjects will be kept confidential and managed according to the requirements of 
 
the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Those regulations require a signed 
subject authorization informing the subject of the following: 
• What protected health information (PHI) will be collected from subjects in this study 
• Who will have access to that information and why 
• Who will use or disclose that information 
• The rights of a research subject to revoke their authorization for use of their PHI. 
 
 
In the event that a subject revokes authorization to collect or use PHI, the investigator, byregulation, 
retains the ability to use all information collected prior to the revocation of subject authorization. For 
subjects that have revoked authorization to collect or use PHI, attempts should be made to obtain 
permission to collect at least vital status (i.e. that the subject is alive) at the end of their scheduledstudy 
period. 
 
Participant confidentiality is strictly held in trust by the participating investigators, their staff, and the 
sponsor(s) and their agents. 
 
This confidentiality is extended to cover testing of biological samples and genetic tests in addition to the 
clinical information relating to participants. Therefore, the study protocol, documentation, data, and all 
other information generated will be held in strict confidence. No information concerning the study or the 
data will be released to any unauthorized third party without prior written approval of the sponsor. 
 
The study monitor, other authorized representatives of the IRB may inspect all documents and records 
required to be maintained by the investigator, including but not limited to, medical records (office, clinic, or 
hospital) and pharmacy records for the participants in this study. The clinical study site will permit access 
to such records. 
 
The study participant’s contact information will be securely stored at each clinical site for internaluse 
during the study. At the end of the study, all records will continue to be kept in a secure location for as 
long a period as dictated by local IRB and Institutional regulations. 
 
Study participant research data, which is for purposes of statistical analysis and scientific reporting, will 
be transmitted to and stored at NYU Langone Medical Center. This will not include the participant’s 
contact or identifying information. Rather, individual participants and their research data will be identified 
 
by a unique study identification number. The study data entry and study management systems used by 
clinical sites and by NYU Langone Medical Center research staff will be secured and password protected. 
At the end of the study, all study databases will be de-identified and archived at the NYU Langone 
Medical Center. 
 
14 Data Handling and Record Keeping 
 
14.1 Data Collection and Management Responsibilities 
 
Data collection is the responsibility of the clinical trial staff at the site under the supervision of the site PI. 
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, legibility, and timeliness of the 
data reported. 
 
 
Data will be collected on CRFs and entered electronically into eCRFs in REDCap. The original CRFs will 
be provided for use as source documents and maintained for recording data for each participant enrolled

in the study. Data reported in the electronic CRF derived from source documents should be consistent 
with the source documents or the discrepancies should be explained and captured in a progress note 
and maintained in the participant’s official electronic study record. 
 
Clinical data (including AEs, concomitant medications, and expected adverse reactions data) and clinical 
laboratory data will be assimilated in the study subject binders. Clinical data will be entered directly from 
the source documents to electronic CRFs in REDCap. 
 
14.2 Study Records Retention 
 
Study documents will be retained for the longer of 3 years after close-out, 5 years after final 
reporting/publication, or 2 years after the investigation is discontinued. No records will be destroyed 
without the written consent of the sponsor, if applicable. It is the responsibility of the sponsor to inform the 
investigator when these documents no longer need to be retained. 
 
14.3 Protocol Deviations 
 
A protocol deviation is any noncompliance with the clinical trial protocol, GCP, or Manual of Procedures 
(MOP) requirements. 
 
The noncompliance may be either on the part of the participant, the investigator, or the study site staff. 
As a result of deviations, corrective actions are to be developed by the site and implemented promptly. 
 
These practices are consistent with ICH E6: 
• 4.5 Compliance with Protocol, sections 4.5.1, 4.5.2, and 4.5.3 
• 5.1 Quality Assurance and Quality Control, section 5.1.1 
• 5.20 Noncompliance, sections 5.20.1, and 5.20.2. 
 
It is the responsibility of the site PI/study staff to use continuous vigilance to identify and report deviations 
within 3 working days of identification of the protocol deviation, or within 3 working days of the scheduled 
protocol-required activity. 
 
All protocol deviations must be addressed in study source documents, reported to the Monitoring 
committee and the IRB. 
 
Protocol deviations must be reported to the local IRB per their guidelines. The site PI/study staff is 
responsible for knowing and adhering to their IRB requirements. Further details about the handling of 
protocol deviations will be included in the MOP. 
 
14.4 Publication and Data Sharing Policy 
 
This study will comply with the NIH Public Access Policy, which ensures that the public has access to the 
published results of NIH funded research. It requires scientists to submit final peer-reviewed journal 
 
manuscripts that arise from NIH funds to the digital archive PubMed Central upon acceptance for 
publication. 
 
The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) member journals have adopted a clinical 
trials registration policy as a condition for publication. The ICMJE defines a clinical trial as any research 
project that prospectively assigns human subjects to intervention or concurrent comparison or control 
groups to study the cause-and-effect relationship between a medical intervention and a health outcome. 
Medical interventions include drugs, surgical procedures, devices, behavioral treatments, process-of-care 
changes, and the like. Health outcomes include any biomedical or health-related measures obtained in 
patients or participants, including pharmacokinetic measures and adverse events. The ICMJE policy, and 
the Section 801 of the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007, requires that all clinical 
trials be registered in a public trials registry such as ClinicalTrials.gov, which is sponsored by the National

Library of Medicine. Other biomedical journals are considering adopting similar policies. For interventional 
clinical trials performed under NIH IC grants and cooperative agreements, it is the grantee’s responsibility 
to register the trial in an acceptable registry, so the research results may be considered for publication in 
ICMJE member journals. The ICMJE does not review specific studies to determine whether registration is 
necessary; instead, the committee recommends that researchers who have questions about the need to 
register err on the side of registration or consult the editorial office of the journal in which they wish to 
publish. 
 
FDAAA mandates that a "responsible party" (i.e., the sponsor or designated principal investigator) register 
and report results of certain "applicable clinical trials": 
 
• Trials of Drugs and Biologics: Controlled, clinical investigations, other than Phase I investigations 
of a product subject to FDA regulation; 
• Trials of Devices: Controlled trials with health outcomes of a product subject to FDA regulation 
(other than small feasibility studies) and pediatric postmarket surveillance studies. 
• NIH grantees must take specific steps to ensure compliance with NIH implementation of FDAAA. 
Study Finances 
 
14.5 Funding Source 
Medication costs for the study drug Mavyret will be paid by the Transplant Institute. Study specific 
laboratory testing will be limited to: 
• 
Serial HCV PCR and serology testing which will be performed at a greater frequency than for 
standard of care following lung transplantation. 
• 
Genotyping of donor HCV 
• 
Genotyping of recipient HCV among those who develop viremia 
The costs of these laboratory tests will be covered by the Transplant Institute. 
 
All other medications and laboratory testing required for this study are routinely conducted as standard of 
care for all recipients of lung transplants and are not considered components of the study. 
 
14.6 Costs to the Participant 
Participants will not incur any costs associated with participating in this trial. 
 
15 Study Administration 
 
15.1 Study Leadership 
 
The Principal Investigator will govern the conduct of the study. The PI, together with at least one 
coinvestigator will meet in person or by teleconference with the DSMB (at least 4 members) at least 
quarterly and documentation of the meeting will be maintained. 
 
16 Conflict of Interest Policy 
The independence of this study from any actual or perceived influence, such as by the pharmaceutical 
industry, is critical. Therefore any actual conflict of interest of persons who have a role in the design, 
conduct, analysis, publication, or any aspect of this trial will be disclosed and managed. Furthermore, 
persons who have a perceived conflict of interest will be required to have such conflicts managed ina 
way that is appropriate to their participation in the trial. The study leadership in conjunction with the 
has established policies and procedures for all study group members to disclose all conflicts of interest 
and will establish a mechanism for the management of all reported dualities of interest. 
 
Any investigator who has a conflict of interest with this study (patent ownership, royalties, or financial gain 
greater than the minimum allowable by their institution, etc.) must have the conflict reviewed by the NYU 
Langone Conflict of Interest Management Unit (CIMU) with a Committee-sanctioned conflict management 
plan that has been reviewed and approved by the study sponsor prior to participation in this study. All 
NYULMC investigators will follow the applicable conflict of interest policies.
