About this study

Official title: Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Autologous T-cells Transfected With mRNA Encoding Hepatitis-B Virus (HBV)-Antigen-specific T Cell Receptor (TCR) in Combination With Nucleos(t)Ide Analogue (NUC) for Chronic Hepatitis B

This is a single center, single arm, open label study to assess the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of the autologous HBV specific T cell receptor (HBV-TCR) redirected T cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B with ongoing with nucleos(t)ide analogue (NUC) treatment. This study will be conducted sequentially starting with Stage-1, followed by Stage-2.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TCR-TBiological

    Stage-1: Patients will receive three biweekly HBV-TCR T cell infusions at escalating doses, ranging from 1 x 10^5 cells/kg to 5 x 10^6 cells/kg bodyweight (by IV infusion). Patients are to remain on existing HBV NUC treatment.

    Stage-2: Patients will receive three biweekly HBV-TCR T cell infusions at maximum dose as determined in Stage-1 study. Patients are to remain on existing HBV NUC treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety evaluation of HBV-TCR T cell treatment

    Incidence of adverse events/serious adverse events

    Measured: Start of Treatment until 28 days post last dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate the capability of HBV-TCR T cell treatment to lower the levels of serum HBsAg

    This is based on quantitative changes of HBsAg levels from baseline

    Measured: Start of treatment until 12 months post treatment follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TCR-T in people with Chronic Hepatitis B, run by Beijing 302 Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 7 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this 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.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Safety evaluation of HBV-TCR T cell treatment (time frame: Start of Treatment until 28 days post last dose). 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 15 Jun 2023.
