Frequently asked questions about ABI-4334

What is ABI-4334 used for?

ABI-4334 is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus infection. It is not yet approved for any indication and remains in clinical development. The clinical program has evaluated the drug in adults with chronic hepatitis B as well as in healthy volunteers.

Who makes ABI-4334?

ABI-4334 is being developed by Assembly Biosciences, Inc., which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker ASMB. The company is the sponsor of the clinical program evaluating the drug in chronic hepatitis B.

What phase is ABI-4334 in?

ABI-4334 is in Phase 1 clinical development. Two Phase 1 trials have been completed: a first-in-human study in healthy subjects and a study assessing safety, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity in subjects with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA.

What clinical trials is ABI-4334 in?

ABI-4334 has been studied in two completed Phase 1 trials. NCT05569941 was a first-in-human study of safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in 54 healthy subjects in New Zealand. NCT06384131 assessed safety, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity in 20 subjects with chronic hepatitis B in Moldova and New Zealand.

Is ABI-4334 the same as ABI-4334 Tablet?

Yes. ABI-4334 Tablet is an alternative name for ABI-4334, the investigational small molecule developed by Assembly Biosciences for chronic hepatitis B. Searches for either name refer to the same clinical-stage drug candidate.

How was ABI-4334 studied in its clinical trials?

Both completed Phase 1 trials of ABI-4334 were randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled. Together they enrolled 74 participants. One trial included 54 healthy volunteers in New Zealand, and the other enrolled 20 adults with chronic hepatitis B in Moldova and New Zealand.
