Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Percentage of Participants With Normal Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) at Week 72
Samples were collected and analyzed for ALT. A normal ALT is a value within the normal range of the assay.
At Week 72
Percentage of Participants With Negative Hepatitis D Virus Ribonucleic Acid (HDV RNA) at Week 72
Samples were collected and analyzed for HDV RNA levels. Negative HDV RNA is defined as below the level of detection of the assay.
At Week 72
