Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Male or female, aged 18 to 65 years (inclusive);
• Clinically diagnosed chronic hepatitis B (serum HBsAg positive ≥6 months);
• Subjects with a history of nucleoside (acid) analog anti-hepatitis B therapy lasting ≥6 months until screening, currently receiving antiviral therapy with a single nucleoside (acid) analog [eg, tenofovir fumarate (TAF), amitenofovir (TMF), tenofovir disoform fumarate (TDF) or entecavir (ETV), etc.], and HBV DNA<100 IU/mL within 28 days prior to the first dose of investigational product;
• Hepatitis B virus e antigen (HBeAg) negative within 28 days prior to first use of investigational product;
• HBsAg>0.05 IU/mL and HBsAg<100 IU/mL within 28 days prior to first use of investigational product;
• Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2× upper limit of normal (ULN) within 28 days prior to the first dose of investigational product;
• Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) negative, or abnormal but not supportive of diagnosis of autoimmune liver disease in the investigator's judgment;

Exclusion Criteria

• Liver disease caused by other causes, including alcoholic liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, drug-induced hepatitis, hemochromatosis, etc.;
• In addition to chronic hepatitis B, clinically important chronic diseases that, in the opinion of the investigator, make the patient unsuitable for participation in the study, including but not limited to thyroid disease requiring clinical intervention or clinically significant thyroid dysfunction, fundus disease (e.g. retinopathy), chronic lung disease with lung dysfunction, history of severe seizures or current use of antiepileptic drugs, immunodeficiency or autoimmune disease;
• Laboratory indicators or symptoms meet one or more of the following:

1. Blood phosphorus <0.65 mmol/L;

2. Serum albumin <35 g/L;

3. Total bilirubin>1.5×ULN;

4. Hemoglobin <100 g/L;

5. Prothrombin time international normalized ratio (INR) ≥1.5;

6. Past or present ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatorenal syndrome, hepatic encephalopathy or liver failure;Child-Pugh score B/C (see Appendix 1 for Child-Pugh classification criteria);

7. Platelet count <125×109/L;

8. WBC count <3×109/L;

9. Absolute neutrophil count <1.5×109/L;

10. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<50 mL/min/1.73m2[calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula (CKD-EPI formula), see Appendix 2 for CKD-EPI formula];

11. Imaging results show hepatocellular carcinoma, cirrhosis or liver mass (except liver cyst or hemangioma), or alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ≥20 μg/L, or FibroScan®/FibroTouch® liver stiffness value (LSM)>10.6 kPa;

12. Serum ceruloplasmin (CP) results suggest an increased risk of metabolic disease;

• Use of immunosuppressants within 6 months prior to first use of investigational product;
• Treatment with corticosteroids (other than topical or inhaled corticosteroids) lasting for 1 week or more within 6 months prior to first use of investigational product;
• Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positive and HCV RNA positive; or hepatitis D virus (HDV) antibody positive; or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody positive; or Treponema pallidum (TP) antibody positive [except for rapid plasma reagin circular card test (RPR) or toluidine red unheated serum test (TRUST) negative];
• History of malignant tumor or recurrence within 5 years prior to the first use of investigational product;
• Previous organ transplant;
• Severe cardiac disease [including myocardial infarction, unstable angina, heart failure (New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class III or IV, NYHA Functional Class criteria see Appendix 3)], renal failure, or pancreatitis;
• Diabetes mellitus with unstable drug control [glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥7.5%] or hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mmHg);
• History of severe drug or food allergy;
• History of alcohol or drug abuse within 6 months prior to screening (mean alcohol consumption in ethanol: >40 g/day for men and>20 g/day for women);
• A past or current diagnosis of mental illness, especially depression or depressive tendencies;
• Use of other investigational drugs or biologics within 30 days or 5 drug half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to first use of investigational product; or participation in a clinical trial of a medical device, drug or vaccine at screening;
• Subjects who have previously taken the investigational drug TVAX-008 injection within 1 year;
• In the opinion of the investigator, participation in this trial is not appropriate due to other reasons.
