A Phase 2 Study of GC1102 (Recombinant Hepatitis B Immunoglobulin) in HBV-related Liver Transplant Recipients

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis B Infection
Interventions
Biological: GC1102 50,000 IU
Biological: GC1102 80,000 IU
Registration Number
NCT02304315
Lead Sponsor
Green Cross Corporation
Brief Summary

This is a proof-of-concept study for GC1102 to demonstrate preventing the recurrence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection following liver transplantation and a dose-finding study to determine its optional dose.

Detailed Description

GC1102 is a new recombinant hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIg) from Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. It is a monoclonal antibody and has high affinity and avidity to hepatitis B surface antigen and several advantages compared to HBIg derived from blood plasma of human donors. Forty volunteers will participate in the study, receive 24-week treatment with low dose (50,000IU) of GC1102 or with high dose (80,000IU) and be followed up till 28 weeks.
