Scientists hunt for genetic clues to chronic hepatitis b immune failure
NCT ID NCT06853886
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at genetic changes in natural killer (NK) and B cells—key immune cells—in people with chronic hepatitis B. Researchers want to understand why these cells don't work properly during long-term infection. The study will analyze blood samples from 140 adults with chronic hepatitis B and healthy volunteers to find molecular patterns that could explain immune system failure.
