    Therapeutic Safety and Efficacy of REP 2139 (REP 9AC') in HBV Infected Patients

    NCT02646189

    Aug 2011 to Aug 2013

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

REP 9AC (REP 2055) is a nucleic acid polymer (NAP) with entry and post-entry antiviral activity against duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) infection. REP 2055 has been shown to have potent therapeutic effect against established DHBV infection in vivo REP 2055 was additionally shown to have significant antiviral effects in patients with chronic HBV infection in the previous REP 101 study. REP 2139 is a version of REP 2055 designed for improved administration tolerability and stability. The safety and antiviral activity REP 2139, first in monotherapy and then in combination with immunotherapy in patients with chronic HBV infection will be assessed in the REP 102 protocol.

Interventions

  • REP 2139-CaDrug
  • ZadaxinDrug
  • PegasysDrug

Arms1

  • Experimental

    REP 2139-Ca + immunotherapy

    REP 2139-Ca is the calcium chelate complex formulation of REP 2139. Zadaxin is thymosin alpha 1 Pegasys is pegylated interferon alpha 2a Patients initially receiving REP 2139-Ca with no Grade 3 adverse events at week 20 are eligible to transition to combination therapy with Zadaxin if serum HBV DNA is \> 2000 copies / ml. After 10 weeks of REP 2139-Ca / Zadaxin combination therapy, patients not experiencing a measurable improvement in serum antiviral response can further transition to combination therapy with REP 2139-Ca and Pegasys.

Primary outcomes1
