Combined GS-4774 and Tenofovir Therapy can Improve HBV-Specific T-Cell Responses in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis.
Gastroenterology(2019)
Abstract
In a phase 2 study of patients with chronic HBV infection given TDF with or without GS-4774, we found that vaccination can increase production of IFNG, TNF, and IL2 by CD8+ T cells exposed to antigenic peptides, with little effect on CD4+ T cells. Although GS-4774 did not reduce levels of HBsAg in patients, its strong immune stimulatory effect on CD8+ T cells might be used in combination with other antiviral agents to boost the anti-virus immune response. Clinicaltrials.gov no: NCT02174276.
