Summary

This early-stage trial tested two experimental therapeutic vaccines, GS-2829 and GS-6779, in 83 healthy people and those with chronic hepatitis B. The main goal was to check safety and tolerability, while also measuring immune responses. The vaccines are designed to help the body fight the hepatitis B virus, potentially offering a new way to control the disease.

What this could lead to
