  • Currently on stable dose of nucleot(s)ide analogues (NAs) (≥ 6 months) and expected to continue while participating in the study, or are not received NAs.
  • Have serum HBV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) concentration ≤ 50 IU/mL at screening (for those who are on NAs); or have serum HBV DNA concentration ≤ 2000 IU/mL at screening (for those who are NOT on NAs).

What rules you out

  • Participants that weigh less than 50 kilograms (kg) and/or have a body mass index (BMI) less than 18.5.
