About this study

Official title: Four-part, Randomized, Double-blind (Parts 1, 2A, 3 and 4), Multi-center, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of GSK3965193 Monotherapy in Healthy Participants and in Participants Living With Chronic Hepatitis B Infection; and GSK3965193 in Combination With Bepirovirsen in Participants Living With Chronic Hepatitis B Infection

This Phase 1/2a multiple part study is a first time-in-human (FTIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single (Part 1) and repeat doses (Part 2) of GSK3965193 in healthy participants. Part 3 will evaluate the ability of GSK3965193 to lower hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) in participants living with chronic hepatitis B infection (PLWCHB) and will be given the option to subsequently receive treatment with open label bepirovirsen. Part 4 will evaluate the safety and tolerability of combination therapy with GSK3965193 and bepirovirsen and the potential to effect sustained virologic response in PLWCHB.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing GSK3965193 and Bepirovirsen in people with Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 14 sites in 6 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 42 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in France, South Korea, United Kingdom, Canada, Italy and 1 more country. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Jun 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Part 1: Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (STEAEs), and Treatment Withdrawals Due to TEAEs (time frame: From the start of study intervention (Day 1) up to 12 weeks). The study lists 36 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Oct 2026.
