dc.description.abstract
Treatment of HCV with direct-acting antivirals has enabled the discussion of HCV eradicationworldwide. Envisioning this aim requires implementation of mass screening in resource-limited areas, usuallyconstrained by testing costs. We validated a low-cost, rapid diagnosis test (RDT) for HCV in three different continents in 141individuals. The HCV RDT showed 100% specificity and sensitivity across different samples regardless of genotypeor viral load (in samples with such information, 90%). The HCV test validated in this study can allow for HCV screening in areas of need when properly used.
