The Xpert HCV test, performed on the GeneXpert Xpress System, is an automated in vitro reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test for the qualitative detection of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) RNA in human fingerstick K2-EDTA whole blood from adult individuals at risk and/or with signs and symptoms of HCV infection with or without antibody evidence of HCV infection. Detection of HCV RNA indicates that the virus is replicating and therefore is evidence of active infection. Detection of HCV RNA does not discriminate between acute and chronic states of infection.

The Xpert HCV test is not intended for monitoring patients undergoing treatment or for use in screening blood, plasma, or tissue donors.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
