New shot for hepatitis b heads into early safety testing

NCT ID NCT07600788

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This early-stage study tests a single injection of AHB-137 in 32 people with chronic hepatitis B, some with mild to moderate liver dysfunction and some with normal liver function. Researchers will measure how the drug moves through the body and check for safety issues. The goal is to understand how liver problems affect the drug, not yet to see if it works.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help determine safe dosing for people with liver problems, moving toward a treatment for chronic hepatitis B.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 study with only 32 participants, focused on safety and drug levels, not effectiveness. It may not lead to a working treatment.
