Direct Acting Antiviral-Post Authorization Safety Study
This is an independent optional sub-study parallel to TARGET-HCC (NCT02954094). The purpose of Direct-Acting Antiviral-Post Authorization Safety Study (DAA-PASS) is to investigate the impact of exposure to direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) on early recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients following successful HCC treatment interventions.
Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.

transplant as prior or planned treatment for HCC is excluded.
- HCV RNA positive
Screening Exclusion Criteria:

Screening (see Section 9.2.9 for imaging details)
- Prior liver transplantation
- Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) surface antigen positive (HBsAg)
- Previously treated with direct-acting antiviral agents (not DAA-naïve); Note that
prior (peg)IFN and/or ribavirin therapy is allowed
Enrollment Inclusion Criteria:
- Continued participation in TARGET-HCC
- No recurrence or progression of initial HCC beyond BCLC Stage A prior to
Enrollment/Baseline
- HCC-free imaging (as defined in Section 9.1.1) at Enrollment/Baseline (see Section
9.2.9 for imaging details; participants may remain in Screening until an HCC-free
image is obtained)
- Remains DAA-naïve (prior therapy with (peg)IFN and/or ribavirin is allowed)
