A Randomised Controlled Phase 1 Study of Vaccine Therapy for Control or Cure of Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Sept 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a pilot study to determine the safety and efficacy of a novel adjuvanted hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine formulated as a potential therapeutic vaccine against chronic HBV infection. An ongoing human clinical trial of this HBV vaccine in a prophylactic setting has confirmed this vaccine to be more effective at inducing seroconversion as measured by development of Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) in poor responder subjects than the standard alum-adjuvanted HBV vaccine, providing promise that this new vaccine may also be able to induce HBV viral control and/or seroconversion in chronically infected subjects

Prior treatment

  • Current alcohol or drug abuse that in the opinion of the investigator may result in non-compliance.
  • Participation in another clinical trial with an investigational agent within 30 days preceding initiation of treatment

Other illness

  • Positive for antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) IgM with negative results for the rest of the HBV markers, indicating acute infection,
  • Positive for anti-delta virus, or anti-hepatitis C virus or HIV
  • History of severe allergic reaction to hepatitis B vaccine.
  • Presence of any other organ-specific disease that in the opinion of the investigator may result in risk to the subject from involvement in the study

Lab values

  • Liver transaminases greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal

Age

  • Pregnancy or female of child-bearing age not using effective method of contraception.

Other

  • Childs Pugh Score for Cirrhosis Mortality of Child grade B or greater

Who the study is looking for

  • Male or female
  • 18 years of age or older
  • Current evidence of HBV chronic infection (with or without cirrhosis) as indicated by detection of HBsAg and/or Hepatitis B DNA (Subjects on current nucleoside therapy may have no detectable Hep B DNA)
  • If child bearing age, using contraception (barrier method, IUD or oral contraception)
  • Able to provide written informed consent
  • Willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study.
