Scientists probe immune system for clues to beat hepatitis b

NCT ID NCT01796457

Summary

This study aims to understand how the body's immune system changes when people with chronic hepatitis B receive treatment. Researchers will observe 40 adults already enrolled in other hepatitis B treatment trials. By measuring immune cells and signals in blood samples, they hope to learn which immune responses predict a good, long-term outcome from therapy.
