Recruiting studies
- NCT05766449Recruiting
Study of liver inflammation and scarring in hepatitis B or fatty liver
This study looks at what factors predict liver inflammation, scarring (fibrosis), and health outcomes in people with long-term hepatitis B or fatty liver disease. The goal is to better understand who is more likely to worsen over time.
NanjingAges 18 years+ - NCT06904820Recruiting
Hepatitis and HIV screening for drug users
This trial tests a convenient way to screen people who use drugs or are in vulnerable situations for hepatitis B, C, and HIV using rapid tests and a liver scanner. The goal is to see if offering these tests in community settings (like shelters or mobile clinics) is acceptable and works well.
LimogesAges 18 years+ - NCT05255978Recruiting
Follow-up study for hepatitis B with fatty liver
This observational study looks at people with chronic hepatitis B who also have fatty liver (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease). It follows how their liver health changes over time and may help doctors understand outcomes and risk factors.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06887036RecruitingPhase 2
Methylene blue for chronic inactive hepatitis B
This trial tests whether a medication called methylene blue can help lower the amount of hepatitis B virus in people with a chronic but inactive infection. It may be an option for people whose virus levels are stable but not fully controlled.

Preventing mom-to-baby hepatitis B with tenofovir
This study tests whether the medicine tenofovir disoproxil can help prevent passing hepatitis B from mother to baby during pregnancy. It is for pregnant women with an active hepatitis B infection who are early in their pregnancy (less than 24 weeks).
TokonbéréAges 16 years+ - NCT05583006Recruiting
Switch from entecavir to tenofovir for chronic hepatitis B
This trial studies switching people with chronic hepatitis B from entecavir (ETV) to tenofovir alafenamide (TAF). It may help if you feel your current entecavir treatment isn’t working well enough or is inconvenient.

Study of LW231 for people with chronic hepatitis B
This trial tests a new drug, LW231, in people with chronic hepatitis B. It aims to see if the drug can reduce the amount of virus and surface antigen in your blood, and if it is safe for you.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–60 - NCT04357600Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell treatment for hepatitis B–related cirrhosis
This early-stage trial tests umbilical cord “mesenchymal” stem cells in people with liver scarring (cirrhosis) that is caused by hepatitis B. It may help improve liver function and related complications, but it is mainly designed to check safety and how well the treatment works.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges 18–65 - NCT06746701Recruiting
Peginterferon with NA to prevent liver cancer in hepatitis B
This study tests whether combining peginterferon alpha-2b with a nucleoside analog can lower liver cancer risk in people with chronic hepatitis B who have a family history of liver cancer. It compares the combination therapy to nucleoside analog alone.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT04942886Enrolling by invitation
Preventing hepatitis B reactivation after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether taking the antiviral medicine entecavir before and after a stem cell transplant can prevent hepatitis B from “waking up” again. It may help protect your liver during a high-risk treatment period.
SeoulAges 19–70 - NCT06923280Recruiting
Sequential Pegylated Interferon After RNA-Targeted Hepatitis B Therapy
This trial tests a sequence of pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) shots for people with chronic hepatitis B who have already had a significant drop in their virus levels after taking a newer type of RNA-targeting medicine. The goal is to see if this approach can help clear the virus even further.
Beijing, ChinaAges 18–80 - NCT07600788RecruitingPhase 1
Liver Function and Safety Study of AHB-137 Injection
This study tests how a new investigational drug called AHB-137 moves through your body and affects safety in people with mild-to-moderate liver problems compared to people with normal liver function. The goal is to understand if the drug works safely in people whose livers don't work as well as they should.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT03097952Recruiting
Study of people with long-term hepatitis B in real life
This “real-life” study follows people with chronic hepatitis B to better understand their health over time. It may help researchers learn which factors affect outcomes in everyday care.
Changzhou, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT03792919RecruitingPhase 4
Stopping long-term hepatitis B medicine vs continuing
This study compares outcomes for people with chronic hepatitis B who have long-term, stable viral suppression: stopping their antiviral medicine versus continuing it. It may help answer whether it’s safe to stop treatment in the right patients.
Hong Kong, Hong Kong SARAges Any age - NCT03920618Recruiting
Testing three HBV medicines for severe liver flare (ACLF)
This study compares three hepatitis B (HBV) medicines to see which treatment helps people with a severe liver flare. You may be eligible if you have confirmed HBV and lab results showing significant liver stress.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 12–65 - NCT04231565Recruiting
Testing antiviral medicines for hepatitis B with normal liver blood tests
This trial studies how well nucleoside (nucleoside-acid) type antiviral medicines control hepatitis B in people whose liver enzyme test (ALT) is currently normal. It may help those with active hepatitis B but no major liver inflammation on recent bloodwork.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT04597164Recruiting
Test a hepatitis B–targeted treatment for serious liver failure
This trial studies a combination approach called DPMAS and low-volume plasma exchange for people with hepatitis B–related acute-on-chronic liver failure. If you qualify, the goal is to improve your liver function and reduce serious complications from liver failure.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT05195450Recruiting
Tenofovir to stop liver disease in mild hepatitis B
This trial tests tenofovir alafenamide (a hepatitis B antiviral medicine) to see if it can prevent liver disease from getting worse in people with chronic hepatitis B who currently have stable (normal) liver blood tests and low virus levels. It may help lower the chance of developing serious liver complications over time.

- Are there clinical trials for hepatitis b?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 153 recruiting hepatitis b studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a hepatitis b trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a hepatitis b trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
