Inclusion Criteria

  • Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for participation in
  • this study:
  • 1. Willing and able to provide written informed consent
  • 2. Male or female, age = 18 years
  • 3. Confirmation of chronic HBV infection documented by:
  • positive HBsAg at least 12 months before screening
  • 4. Cohort A: NA treatment for at least 12 months before screening. HBV-DNA should be
  • below the lower limit of detection at screening. HBsAg positive and <100 IU/ml.
  • HBeAg negative.
  • 5. Cohort B: Untreated with NAs for at least 12 months before screening. HBV-DNA <
  • 2000 IU/ml. HBsAg positive and < 100 IU/ml. HBeAg-negative.
  • 6. Subject has not been treated with any investigational drug or device within 42 days
  • before the screening visit or within 5 half-lives for investigational drugs, whichever is
  • 7. Transient Elastography (FibroScan) < 7.5 kPa at screening.
  • 8. ALT levels < 1.5 times of upper the limit of normal at screening for both cohorts
  • 9. Body mass idex (BMI) > 18kg/m²
  • 10. A negative serum pregnancy test is required for female subjects (unless surgically
  • sterile or women > 54 years of age with cessation for > 24 months of previously
  • occurring menses). Complete abstinence from intercourse. Periodic abstinence (e.g.,
  • calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods) is not permitted.
  • Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed
  • below, in addition to a male partner who correctly uses a condom, from the date of
  • Screening until the end of FU:
  • intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of < 1% per year
  • bilateral tubal sterilization
  • vasectomy in male partner
  • hormone-containing contraceptive:
  • o combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation:
  • - intravaginal
  • - transdermal
  • o progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation:
  • - injectable
  • - implantable
  • 11. Subject must be able to comply with the dosing instructions for study drug administration and be able to complete the study schedule of assessments
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 18
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 2

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subjects who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled in this study:
  • 1. Clinically significant illness (other than hepatitis B) or any other major medical
  • disorder that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with subject
  • treatment, assessment or compliance with the protocol. Subjects currently under
  • evaluation for a potentially clinically significant illness (other than hepatitis B) are
  • also excluded.
  • 2. Co-infection with hepatitis C virus (defined as HCV RNA positive. HCV RNA
  • negative/anti-HCV-positive patients can be included) or co-infection with HIV.
  • 3. Clinical hepatic decompensation (i.e. clinical ascites, encephalopathy or variceal
  • hemorrhage).
  • 4. Psychiatric hospitalization, suicide attempt, and/or a period of disability as a result
  • of their psychiatric illness within the last 2 years. Subjects with psychiatric illness
  • that is well-controlled on a stable treatment regimen for at least 12 months prior to
  • screening or has not required medication in the last 12 months may be included.
  • 5. Significant drug allergy (such as anaphylaxis or hepatotoxicity).
  • 6. Pregnant or nursing female or male with pregnant female partner
  • 7. Clinically relevant drug or alcohol abuse within 12 months of screening including any
  • uncontrolled drug use within 6 months of screening. A positive drug screen will
  • exclude subjects unless it can be explained by a prescribed medication. The
  • investigator must approve medication, the diagnosis and prescription. Uncontrolled
  • users of intravenous drugs will not be permitted to enroll in the study.
  • 8. live-attenuated virus vaccinations such as: measles, mumps, rubella and varicella 4
  • weeks before and up to three months after administration of hepatitis B
  • immunoglobulins. If not required by an emergency situation, passive or active
  • immunizations or administration of plasma preparations or of other
  • immunoglobulins is not allowed during the study.
  • 9. A recent SARS-COV2 infection in the last 4 weeks prior to screening
