Eligibility of study

You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:

  • Conditions: Chronic Hepatitis B Virus
  • Age: 100 years or below
  • Gender: All

This study investigates the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication for treating Chronic Hepatitis B in children and adolescents. Chronic Hepatitis B is a long-term liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus, which can lead to liver damage over time.

Participants in this study will receive either the investigational medication or a placebo. A placebo is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medication but does not contain any medicine. The study will measure how well the investigational medication works and its safety.

  • Who can participate: Eligible participants are children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years who have been diagnosed with Chronic Hepatitis B. Additional eligibility criteria include stable liver function tests and no history of severe liver disease or other major health conditions.
