  • Chronic HBV infection (documented HBsAg positivity for \>6 months).
  • Prior participation in ASO or siRNA clinical trials:
  • Received ≥1 dose of ASO/siRNA (or matched placebo, if applicable).
  • Achieved ≥1 log10 IU/mL HBsAg decline from baseline during prior therapy.
  • Discontinued ASO/siRNA therapy before screening.
  • Screening HBsAg: 0.05-500 IU/mL.
  • No prior interferon (IFN) therapy within 6 months before enrollment.
  • Willingness to comply with study-related treatments, tests, and procedures.
  • Commitment to contraception during the study.
  • Voluntary participation with signed informed consent.

Exclusion

  • Decompensated cirrhosis or hepatic malignancy (evidenced by imaging or histology within 6 months before/during screening).
  • Elevated AFP: Screening AFP \>100 ng/mL; AFP 20-100 ng/mL with imaging-confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma (ultrasound/CT/MRI).
  • Coinfection with hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis D virus (HDV), hepatitis E virus (HEV), or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

  • Pregnancy, lactation, or plans for pregnancy during the study.
  • Autoimmune hepatitis.
  • Active autoimmune diseases (e.g., psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus).
  • Uncontrolled cardiovascular disease (e.g., unstable angina, myocardial infarction within 6 months).

  • Severe psychiatric disorders: History of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or family history of psychiatric conditions (especially depression).
  • Substance abuse: Alcohol (\>40 g/day for males; \>20 g/day for females) or Illicit drug use.
  • Severe retinopathy or ophthalmologic disorders.
  • Renal diseases: Chronic nephritis, renal insufficiency, nephrotic syndrome.
  • Major organ dysfunction (e.g., heart, lung, pancreas).
  • Organ transplant recipients or candidates.
  • Hypersensitivity to interferon or excipients.
  • Concurrent participation in other HBV-related interventional trials.
