Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Evaluation of the safety and tolerability of increasing multiple oral doses of CMX157 in HBV + patients

    Capture adverse events, physical examinations, ECGs and clinical laboratory panels

    Time frame: 28 days

  2. To evaluate the antiviral activity of CMX157 versus tenofovir disproxil fumarate(TDF).

    HBV DNA levels

    Time frame: 28 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of oral CMX157 in HBV + subjects, Cmax.

    Measuring Cmax(concentration maximum): the peak plasma concentration.

    Time frame: 28 days

  2. Evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of oral CMX157 in HBV + subjects: Tmax.

    Measuring Tmax(time maximum): the time Cmax was observed.

    Time frame: 28 days

  3. Evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of oral CMX157 in HBV + subjects: AUC.

    Measuring AUC(area under the curve): area under plasma concentration versus time curve.

    Time frame: 28 days

  4. Evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of oral CMX157 in HBV + subjects: Cmin.

    Measuring Cmin(concentration minimum): minimum observed plasma concentration.

    Time frame: 28 days

The record gives a start of May 2016, a primary completion of Jul 2017 and a completion of Jul 2017. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 13, 2017, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
