Gum disease and hepatitis: a hidden connection revealed?

NCT ID NCT07491848

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at the link between gum (periodontal) disease and hepatitis B+D infection, and whether the drug bulevirtide changes that relationship. Researchers will measure inflammation markers in saliva and gum fluid from 25 adults: those with hepatitis B+D on bulevirtide, those not on the drug, and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand how these conditions interact, not to test a new treatment.
