Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of transplanting lungs from hepatitis B virus (HBV) nucleic acid test positive (NAT+) donors into HBV vaccinated HBV surface antibody positive (sAb+) lung transplant candidates, who will then be treated with Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (HBIG) and entecavir, tenofovir disoproxil, or tenofovir alafenamide.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age 18-70 years
- Able to provide informed consent
- Willing and able to travel to the University of Pennsylvania for routine post-transplant study visits
- Pre-menopausal women must agree to use birth control in accordance with the Mycophenolate Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) following transplant
- Both men and women must agree to use at least one barrier method of birth control or remain abstinent following transplant due to risk of HBV transmission
- Appropriate HBV vaccine pre-transplant response, defined as HBV sAb ≥12.00 mIU/mL
You may not qualify if:
- Donor characteristics:
