Brief summary

This is a Phase 2b/3 study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of chronic treatment with brelovitug (a.k.a BJT-778; BTG) for chronic hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infection. The comparator in this study will be 24-weeks of delayed treatment. During the 24-weeks of delayed treatment, participants will complete the same visits and assessments as those randomized to initiate brelovitug immediately. At the completion of 24-week delayed treatment period, all participants will start treatment with brelovitug.

Detailed description

Study will consist of 3 study arms. Approximately 150 participants will be randomized 2:2:1 to one of the following treatment arms: * Arm 1: Participants randomized to Arm 1 will receive brelovitug 300 mg subcutaneously once weekly. * Arm 2: Participants randomized to Arm 2 will receive brelovitug 900 mg subcutaneously once every 4 weeks. * Arm 3: Participants randomized to Arm 3 will attend study clinic visits and delay treatment with brelovitug. At Week 24, all participants will receive brelovitug 300 mg subcutaneously once weekly.
