ArmTypeDescription
ABI-H0731 + SOC ETVEXPERIMENTALParticipants with cHBV who are currently not being treated will receive ABI-H0731 along with SOC ETV tablets orally for 24 weeks. Eligible participants may enter a separate extension study after Week 24 to continue open-label ABI-H0731 for up to an additional year if necessary.
Placebo + SOC ETVEXPERIMENTALParticipants with cHBV who are currently not being treated will receive matching placebo along with SOC ETV tablets orally for 24 weeks. Eligible participants may enter a separate extension study after Week 24 to start treatment on open-label ABI-H0731 for up to a year if necessary.
ABI-H0731 + SOC NUCEXPERIMENTALVirologically suppressed participants will receive ABI-H0731 along with SOC NUC (ETV, TDF or TAF) tablets orally for 24 weeks. Eligible participants may enter a separate extension study after Week 24 to continue open-label ABI-H0731 for up to an additional year if necessary.
Placebo + SOC NUCACTIVE_COMPARATORVirologically suppressed participants will receive matching placebo tablets and continue their SOC NUC (ETV, TDF or TAF) for 24 weeks. Eligible participants may enter a separate extension study after Week 24 to start treatment on open-label ABI-H0731 for up to a year if necessary.
