NCT01641536

Brief Summary

This study is an open label, dose escalation study using the classical 3+3 design to determine the MTD of HB-110 and assess the safety, immunogenicity and efficacy of HB-110 DNA therapeutic vaccine administered by Electroporation in combination with Entecavir in chronic hepatitis B patients.

EXPERIMENTAL

The subjects in this group will be administered 1 mg of HB-110 according to the protocol.

Genetic: HB-110

2mg of HB-110

EXPERIMENTAL

The subjects in this group will be administered 2 mg of HB-110 according to the protocol.

Genetic: HB-110

4mg of HB-110

EXPERIMENTAL

Interventions

HB-110GENETIC

Each patient will be administered HB-110 by Electroporation for 20 weeks based on the protocol and take one pill of Entecavir(0.5 mg) per day during the study period. The Dose of HB-110 will be determined by the classical 3+3 dose escalation schedule and dose levels are 1mg, 2mg, 4mg respectively. The number of patients will be ranged from 9 to 18.
