Changes in utilization and discard of HCV-antibody positive deceased-donor kidneys in the era of direct-acting antiviral therapy

Abstract Background The availability of direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy might have impacted use of HCV-infected (HCV+) deceased-donor kidneys for transplantation. Methods We used 2005-2018 SRTR data to identify 18 936 candidates willing to accept HCV+ kidneys and 3348 HCV+ recipients of HCV+ kidneys. We compared willingness to accept, utilization, discard, and posttransplant outcomes associated with HCV+ kidneys between 2 treatment eras (Interferon [IFN] era: 1/1/2005-12/5/2013 versus DAA era: 12/6/2013-8/2/2018). Models were adjusted for candidate, recipient, and donor factors where appropriate. Results In the DAA era, candidates were 2.2-times more likely to list as willing to accept HCV+ kidneys (aOR: 2.072.232.41, P
