Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will assess the efficacy of ABF656 in chronic hepatitis B characterized by HBeAg positivity. The study is designed to establish a dose response and safety relationship sufficient to allow the subsequent design and conduct of Phase 3 trials. The trial is also designed to generate the PK data in hepatitis B patients to satisfy regulatory requirements in China.
