Summary
This early-stage study tests an injection called AHB-171 in healthy volunteers and people with chronic hepatitis B. The main goals are to check safety, how the body processes the drug, and whether it shows any signs of controlling the virus. About 110 participants will be enrolled to gather this initial information.
