The purpose of this study is to see if the study drug Harvoni given for 4 weeks immediately after liver transplantation is safe and able to clear the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) from the body. This study will test a drug named Harvoni for the treatment of chronic genotype 1 or 4 Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in peri-operative liver transplant patients. Harvoni (LDV/SOF FDC) is approved in the United States for treatment of chronic genotype 1 HCV infection.in adult patients but not for genotype 4. It is still being tested in research studies for genotype 4.
