Observational Study of Direct-Acting Antivirals for Hepatitis C in Pregnancy
This study, called the "TiP-HepC Registry," is looking at the safety and effectiveness of Direct Acting Antivirals (DAAs) for pregnant women with Hepatitis C (HCV). Currently, there isn't an approved treatment for HCV during pregnancy, even though screening is recommended. This study aims to understand how DAAs affect both the mother and the baby when taken during pregnancy, and if they help reduce the chance of the baby getting HCV from the mother. You could be eligible if you are pregnant, have chronic HCV infection, and have been exposed to DAAs around the time of conception. The study will track the number of negative pregnancy and birth outcomes over one year to see how well these medications work and if they are safe. The study plans to include 100 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.
