Outcomes in the Era of Interferon-Free Direct-Acting Antiviral Therapy After Liver Transplantation in Patients with Hepatitis C Virus and Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

LT recipients in the IFN-free DAA treatment era had significantly higher complete tumor necrosis in explants. Other HCC tumor characteristics were similar between the two eras. Post-LT graft failure at 1 and 3 years significantly decreased in the IFN-free DAA treatment era among patients with HCV and HCC, although patient mortality was not statistically different.
