Can a new injection tame chronic hepatitis b?

NCT ID NCT07741461

First seen Aug 03, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-stage trial is evaluating an investigational drug called ACT201, given as an injection, to see if it is safe and tolerable. The study first tests single and multiple doses in healthy volunteers, then moves to people with chronic hepatitis B whose virus is already suppressed by standard therapy. The goal is to gather initial information on safety, how the drug moves through the body, and any early signs that it might help control the infection.
