About this study
Official title: A Phase 2 Multicenter, Open-label Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Regimens Containing BRII-179, BRII-835, and Pegylated Interferon Alpha (PEG-IFNα) for the Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Infection (ENRICH)
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the regimens containing BRII-179, BRII-835, and PEG-IFNα in adult participants with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection receiving nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) as background therapy.
- Being tested
- BRII-179, BRII-835 (VIR-2218), PEG-IFNα
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
BRII-179Biological
BRII-179 will be given via intramuscular injection
BRII-835 (VIR-2218)Drug
Also called elebsiran
BRII-835 will be given via subcutaneous injection
PEG-IFNαBiological
Also called Pegylated interferon alfa
PEG-IFNα will be given via subcutaneous injection
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| BRII-179 (longer dose interval) followed by BRII-835 + PEG-IFNα | Experimental | Participants will receive BRII-179 of a longer dose interval, followed by BRII-835 and PEG-IFNα combination therapy. Receives: Biological: BRII-179; Drug: BRII-835 (VIR-2218); Biological: PEG-IFNα |
| BRII-179 (shorter dose interval) followed by BRII-835 + PEG-IFNα | Experimental | Participants will receive BRII-179 of a shorter dose interval, followed by BRII-835 and PEG-IFNα combination therapy. Receives: Biological: BRII-179; Drug: BRII-835 (VIR-2218); Biological: PEG-IFNα |
