Hepatitis b study tests if 'Undetectable equals Untransmissible' holds true for body fluids

NCT ID NCT07449091

First seen Mar 04, 2026 · Last updated Jun 18, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study looks at whether people with chronic hepatitis B who have undetectable virus levels in their blood also have undetectable levels in other body fluids like saliva or semen. Researchers will compare treated patients with suppressed virus to untreated patients with active virus. The goal is to see if the 'Undetectable = Untransmissible' message, already used for HIV, can apply to hepatitis B, which could reduce stigma and fear of transmission.
