Background: GS-9688 is an oral selective small molecule
agonist of Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) in clinical development for
the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) Here we evaluate
the safety and efficacy of GS-9688 in CHB patients who were
virally suppressed on an oral antiviral (OAV). Methods: In this
multicenter, randomized, double-blind, phase 2 study of GS-
9688 in virally suppressed CHB patients on OAV, 48 patients
were enrolled in two cohorts (HBeAg-positive and HBeAgnegative)
evaluating 3.0 mg, 1.5 mg, and placebo (2:2:1) of
GS-9688 once a week (QW) for 24 weeks in combination with
OAV. Safety assessments included monitoring of adverse
events (AE) and laboratory abnormalities. The primary efficacy
endpoint was the proportion of patients with ≥ 1 log10 IU/mL
decline in HBsAg levels from baseline at week 24 Secondary
endpoints include the proportion of patients with HBsAg and
HBeAg loss and changes in pharmacodynamic (PD) markers,
IL-1RA and IL-12p40 Results: Baseline characteristics of
the 48 patients were similar across groups (table) Safety
and pharmacodynamic parameters are also summarized
in the table. Grade ≥ 3 AE were observed in 0%, 10%, and
0% of patients treated with 3 0 mg, 1 5 mg, and placebo,
respectively One patient in the study (HBeAg-negative,
1.5mg group) achieved the primary endpoint of ≥ 1 log10 IU/
mL decline in HBsAg levels at week 24 One patient in the
study (HBeAg-negative, 3 mg group) achieved HBsAg loss
and another patient (HBeAg-positive, 1 5 mg group) achieved
HBeAg loss at week 24 Dose-dependent increases in serum
IL-1RA and IL-12p40 in the GS-9688 treatment groups were
observed Conclusion: Oral GS-9688 is safe, well-tolerated,
and induced dose-dependent PD changes in CHB patients
5% of patients experienced either ≥ 1 log10 IU/mL decline in
HBsAg levels or HBsAg loss at week 24 Further evaluation
of immunologic, antiviral, and pharmacodynamics markers
through week 48 are underway. |
