Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of the study is to procure blood (plasma, serum, RNA and PBMC samples) from approximately 40 chronic HBV for biomedical research program led by VGTI Florida.


Clinical Trial Description

During chronic HBV infection, a dynamic balance between viral replication and the host immune response is pivotal to the pathogenesis of liver disease. HBV specific T-cell function is impaired in patients with chronic HBV infection characterized by low levels of antiviral cytokines, impaired cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity, and persistent viremia. However, the mechanism underlying this T-cell malfunction in chronic HBV infection has not been completely understood.

The biomedical research on the samples obtained during this study will include, among other studies, advanced flow cytometry to study the Treg and activation markers, negative regulatory molecules and phenotype of CD4 and CD8 subsets using the extended panel markers developed at VGTI Florida. Additional antibody panels for measuring functional CD4 responses by ICS, DC subsets, activation, and signaling pathways by phos ;
