Overview

This drug is a **combination therapy** consisting of: - **BRII-179**: a recombinant protein-based therapeutic vaccine targeting hepatitis B virus (HBV), expressing the Pre-S1, Pre-S2, and S HBV surface antigens to induce broad B-cell and T-cell immunity in patients[1]. - **Elebsiran**: a small interfering RNA (siRNA, formerly BRII-835 or VIR-2218) designed to silence HBV gene expression, thereby reducing viral antigens and replication[1]. - **Pegylated interferon alfa (Pegasys, peginterferon alfa-2a)**: an immunotherapy that boosts the innate antiviral immune response via the type I interferon pathway (notably JAK/STAT), used in chronic hepatitis treatments[2][4]. This combination is in clinical development as a **curative functional therapy for chronic hepatitis B infection**, aiming to enhance HBsAg (hepatitis B surface antigen) loss and seroclearance, especially in patients primed with BRII-179[1][3][5][7]. BRII-179 may help select or prime patients for improved immune response to subsequent elebsiran + pegylated interferon therapy[1][3][5]. Developer: Brii Biosciences[1][3][5][7].
