    • Screening HBV DNA ≥ 2 × 104 IU/mL
    • Screening serum ALT > 45 U/L (> 1.5 × ULN: 30 U/L) and ≤ 10 × ULN (by central laboratory range)
  • Treatment-naive or treatment-experienced will be eligible for enrollment.

  • Males and females of reproductive potential who are unwilling to use an "effective", protocol-specified method(s) of contraception during the study.
  • Coinfection with hepatitis C virus (HCV), HIV, or hepatitis D virus (HDV)
  • Evidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (Note: if screening alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is < 50 ng/mL no imaging study is needed; however, if the screening AFP is > 50 ng/mL an imaging study is required)
  • Any history of, or current evidence of, clinical hepatic decompensation
  • Abnormal hematological and biochemical parameters
  • Chronic liver disease of non-HBV etiology (e.g., hemochromatosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, cholangitis)
