Brief summary

The study is designed to assess efficacy of a finitie treatment in Chronic Hepatitis B patients who had stable treatment of NAs for ≧ 2 years, which is compared hepalatide in combination with Pegylated Interferon + TAF with Pegylated Interferon +TAF. Subjects will be randomly assigned to the hepalatide or placebo groups , 15 subjects in each group . Subjects will receive hepalatide+Pegylated Interferon +TAF treatment for 48 weeks or placebo +PegylatedInterferon +TAF treatment for 48 weeks , Then, stopping hepalatide and Pegylate Interferon treatments and followed with further 8 weeks follow-up.

Detailed description

Hepalatide is a liver-targeted antiviral therapeutic for subcutaneous injection designed to treat chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. The aim of this study is to assess efficacy of a finitie treantment , that combination regimen of hepalatide+half dose Pegylated interferon + TAF , as measured by the primary efficacy endpoint. This study will be conducted in 3 periods: Screening Period (4weeks), Treatment Period (48 weeks) and Follow-up (FU) Period (8 weeks). Safety assessments will include adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, clinical safety laboratory tests, electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs, ophthalmologic examinations and physical examinations. Total duration of individual participation will be up to 60 weeks (including screening period).
