HBV003 is a Phase 2b clinical trial designed to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of VTP-300 when combined with a low-dose anti-PD-1 antibody in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection.

Key Points: 
  • HBV003 is a Phase 2b clinical trial designed to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of VTP-300 when combined with a low-dose anti-PD-1 antibody in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection.
  • VTP-300 includes Vaccitechs prime-boost platform, which utilizes 2 nonreplicating viral vectors, ChAdOx1 and MVA.
  • Each viral vector encodes HBV antigens to elicit an immune response against HBV.
  • We have been very encouraged by data emerging from our open-label HBV002 study, which shows that VTP-300 induced significant and sustained HBsAg declines in some patients with chronic HBV.
