About this study
Official title: A Prospective, Multi-Centre Study (B-Sure) to Evaluate Long-Term Durability of Treatment Response in Chronic Hepatitis B Participants With and Without Nucleos(t)Ide Therapy Who Have Participated in a Previous Bepirovirsen Treatment Study
This is a global multi-center, long-term follow-up study to assess durability of efficacy, as measured by maintenance of treatment response from the parent study, in participants who participated in a previous bepirovirsen study and achieved a complete or partial response. Eligible participants will be enrolled in this study after completing the end of study (EoS) visit in the respective parent bepirovirsen studies (studies B-Clear [209668: NCT04449029], B-Together [209348: NCT04676724], B-Fine [212602: NCT04544956], B-Well 1 [202009: NCT05630807], B-Well 2 [219288: NCT05630820], and TH HBV ASO-001 [217023: NCT05276297]). Participants will be categorized as Not-on-NA, NA-cessated, or On-NA based on their nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) status in the parent study. No further treatment with bepirovirsen will be administered in this study.

BepirovirsenDrug
No study drug will be administered in this study. Eligible participants who received prior treatment with bepirovirsen in the parent studies will be included.
PlaceboDrug
No study drug will be administered in this study. Eligible participants who received prior treatment with placebo in the parent studies (209668, 202009, and 219288) will be included to maintain the blind in the still ongoing parent studies.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Not-on-NA participants | Experimental | Participants rolling over from study 209668 who have not received nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) therapy during the parent study and remain off NAs will be included in this arm. Participants will be followed up for 33 months. Participants maintaining either functional cure (FC) or a partial response off NA treatment at Month 33 will be eligible to be followed up for an additional 2 years. No study treatment will be administered in this study. Receives: Drug: Bepirovirsen; Drug: Placebo |
| On-NA participants | Experimental | Participants rolling over from studies 209668, 209348, 212602, 202009, 219288, and 217023 who entered the parent study on stable NA therapy and remained on NA therapy for the duration of the treatment and follow-up periods in the parent study will be included in this arm. NA cessation will occur at 3 months in 206882 for eligible and willing participants. Participants will be followed up for 33 months. Participants rolling over from studies 209668 and 209348 who stopped NA treatment and are maintaining either FC or a partial response at Month 33, and remaining off NA treatment, will be eligible to be followed up for an additional 2 years. No study treatment will be administered in this study. Receives: Drug: Bepirovirsen; Drug: Placebo |
| NA-cessated participants | Experimental | Participants rolling over from studies 202009 and 219288 who have stopped NA treatment during the parent study will be included in this arm.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Bepirovirsen in people with Hepatitis B, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 161 sites in 29 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 161 sites in China, Japan, India, Taiwan, Italy and 24 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Percentage of Not-on-NA participants without loss of parent study primary outcome (PSPO) (time frame: From primary endpoint assessment in the parent study up to Month 57). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Nov 2026.
