Study To Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Vesatolimod for the Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B Virus in Virally-Suppressed Participants

Summary

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of vesatolimod in participants with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection currently being treated with oral antivirals (OAV). Participants will be randomized in 3 sequential cohorts (Cohorts A, B, and C). Within each cohort, participants will be randomized in a 1:3:3:3 ratio to placebo or one of the doses of vesatolimod (1, 2, or 4 mg).
