About this study

Official title: A Single-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Escalation Phase I Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Preliminary Efficacy, Drug Concentration-QTc Relationship, and Immunogenicity Profiles of Single and Multiple Doses of ACT201 Injection in Healthy Participants and Participants With Chronic Hepatitis B

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ACT201 Injection in people with Chronic Hepaititis B, run by Xiamen Amoytop Biotech Co., Ltd. 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 14 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2026. 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. 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Jing Zhang, Ph.D. (021-52887926, Zhangj_fudan@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety: number of participants with adverse event (AE), serious adverse events (SAE) and clinically significant examination results. (time frame: throughout the full study period,an average of 4 months). 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 17 Aug 2026.
