Study of Oral TLR8 Agonist Selgantolimod on HBsAg in Participants With Both Chronic Hepatitis B and HIV
48 patients around the world
Available in United States, Brazil, Peru
A5394 is a phase II, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Forty-eight study
participants will be randomized 3:1 to receive SLGN or its placebo (36 active and 12
placebo), and randomization will be stratified by HBeAg status. One-half of the study
participants will be HBeAg positive (n=24) at screening, and the other half will be HBeAg
negative (n=24). All participants will remain on their non-study-provided antiviral
therapy throughout the study.

CD4+ cell count ≥350 cells/mm3
HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL measured on at least two occasions at least 12 weeks apart, with no documented value >200 copies/mL, over the 12 months prior to study entry.
Positive or negative HBeAg
Negative anti-HDV
Current CHB infection
HBV DNA level <50 IU/mL measured on at least two occasions at least 12 weeks apart, with no documented value ≥50 IU/mL, over the 12 months prior to study entry.
Quantitative HBsAg >1000 IU/mL
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody negative, or if the participant is HCV antibody positive, an undetectable HCV RNA.
Participants age ≥18 years and ≤70 years at study entry
Participants must agree to stay on an effective antiviral therapy for HIV (ART) and HBV throughout the study.
Receipt of treatment for HCV within 24 weeks prior to study entry
Evidence of advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis (Metavir ≥F3 or equivalent).
Current or prior history of clinical hepatic decompensation (e.g., ascites, encephalopathy, or variceal hemorrhage)
History of HCC or cholangiocarcinoma
Malignancy within 5 years prior to study entry. NOTE: A history of non-melanoma skin cancer (e.g., basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell skin cancer) is not exclusionary.
History of solid organ transplantation
Presence of any active or acute AIDS-defining opportunistic infections within 60 days prior to study entry
