Brief Summary

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

The study is a phase 2a, single blind, randomized, placebo controlled, study evaluating the safety, anti-viral activity, and pharmacokinetics (PK) following multiple doses of intravenous ARB-001467

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Approximately 24 subjects will be enrolled in three cohorts: two cohorts of HBeAg-negative subjects and one cohort of HBeAg-positive subjects and 12 HbeAg-negative subjects will be enrolled in cohort 4. All subjects will be non-cirrhotic, with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and will have been receiving nucleos(t)ide-analogue (NA) therapy with entecavir or tenofovir for at least 12 months.
