They must not have other infections like HIV or Hepatitis C/D, no recent cancer except certain skin cancers, and can't be on immune-suppressing drugs or have a history of drug abuse.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of Bepirovirsen compared to a placebo in suppressing the hepatitis B virus when taken alongside standard antiviral treatment. It's divided into stages including initial double-blind treatment, continued antiviral therapy, potential cessation of antivirals, and monitoring durability of response over approximately two years.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, similar treatments often cause flu-like symptoms (fever, fatigue), injection site reactions (redness or pain), possible liver enzyme elevations indicating liver irritation/inflammation. Participants will be monitored closely for any adverse effects throughout the trial.
