New drug combo shows promise in fighting stubborn hepatitis b

NCT ID NCT04980482

Summary

This study tested whether adding an experimental drug called AB-729 to standard hepatitis B medications could better control the virus. Researchers enrolled 43 people with chronic hepatitis B who were already taking antiviral drugs. They wanted to see if this combination was safe and could reduce virus levels enough that some patients might eventually stop their regular medications.
