Celiac Disease Overview Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. In individuals with celiac disease, the immune system mistakenly attacks the small intestine upon gluten consumption, leading to inflammation and damage to the intestinal lining, specifically the villi, which are essential for nutrient absorption. The exact cause of celiac disease is not fully understood, but it is known to involve a combination of genetic predisposition (usually associated with HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 genes) and environmental factors. Common symptoms of celiac disease include digestive issues such as diarrhea, bloating, gas, constipation, and abdominal pain. However, some individuals experience non-digestive symptoms, like fatigue, anemia, joint pain, skin rashes, and even neurological issues such as headaches or depression. Because of this broad symptom range, celiac disease is often underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed as other conditions. Diagnosis typically involves blood tests to detect specific antibodies (like tissue transglutaminase antibodies) and, if positive, is followed by an intestinal biopsy to confirm damage to the villi. Genetic testing may also be conducted in some cases to identify predispositions. The primary treatment for celiac disease is a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet. By avoiding gluten, individuals with celiac disease can heal intestinal damage and prevent symptoms and complications. However, adherence to this diet requires vigilance, as even small amounts of gluten can trigger symptoms and damage.

Eight participants achieved HBsAg loss at any time. Two participants met criteria for functional cure. Two participants who discontinued NUC therapy seroconverted to HBsAb positivity. Nov. 15, 2024 -- Barinthus Biotherapeutics plc (NASDAQ: BRNS), today announced the most significant data so far from the ongoing Phase 2b HBV003 clinical trial. The data will be presented by Dr. Chun-Jen Liu as an oral presentation on November 18, 2024, at 17:30 PT at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) – The Liver Meeting® 2024. Barinthus Bio is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel immunotherapeutic candidates that guide T cells to control disease. The HBV003 study (NCT05343481) is fully recruited with a total of 121 participants, including 69 participants who had entered the trial with HBsAg levels below 200 IU/mL. The study is evaluating different dosing regimens of VTP-300 in combination with low-dose nivolumab, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody. The new data showed that as of data cut off, eight participants were reported with complete HBsAg loss (defined as HBsAg levels below the lower limit of quantitation [ Uniquely, two of the eight participants with HBsAg loss, became positive for anti-hepatitis B antibodies (HBsAb) that they did not have before, including one of those who met functional cure criteria. The data from this ongoing study indicate that stronger responses may happen in participants treated with the combination of VTP-300 and a low dose of the anti-PD1 antibody nivolumab (Groups 1 and 2). “Sustained HBsAg loss has proven to be the largest hurdle in getting chronic hepatitis B patients to functional cure,” said Dr. Chun-Jen Liu, investigator on HBV003 and Director of the Hepatitis Research Center and Clinical Trial Center, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taiwan. “The data we are seeing with VTP-300 is unique because they indicate a durable loss of HBsAg in participants, including two who met the criteria for functional cure. Although the study is still ongoing, these early data may bring us a step closer to potentially allowing some patients with chronic hepatitis B to come off antiviral treatment without their chronic hepatitis B progressing.” 40 participants, with HBsAg below 200 IU/mL at screening, who had reached Day 169 were assessed for nucleos(t)ide analogue (NUC) discontinuation. The data showed the following: 24 were eligible for NUC discontinuation. Eight achieved HBsAg loss at any time, two of whom achieved it after Day 169. Nine participants chose to discontinue NUCs. 66% (n=6/9) remained off NUC therapy, five for more than six months. Two of these six have met the criteria for functional cure. Two of these six seroconverted to HBsAb positivity. Follow up is continuing with the remaining participants to assess if they will meet functional cure criteria. Durable HBsAg declines were observed in all treatment groups, consistent with data previously presented at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress, in June 2024. Preliminary safety data indicate that VTP-300 in combination with low-dose nivolumab was generally well tolerated with no treatment-related SAEs observed or reported as of data cut off. "These Phase 2 data are incredibly encouraging and highlight the ability of VTP-300 to stimulate the immune response and induce sustained reductions in HBsAg to the point of meeting functional cure criteria,” said Dr. Nadege Pelletier, Chief Scientific Officer of Barinthus Bio. "Moreover, the finding that one of the participants meeting functional cure criteria had antibodies against hepatitis B is promising as HBsAb positivity is associated with long-term control of the infection by the immune system.” Functional cure is defined by AASLD as sustained HBsAg loss and hepatitis B virus DNA About the HBV003 Trial The HBV003 trial is designed to obtain critical information on treatment dosing regimen with participants receiving VTP-300 and low-dose (LD) nivolumab. All Groups received ChAdOx at Day 1; Groups 1 & 2 received MVA with nivolumab at Day 29; Group 2 was dosed again with MVA and nivolumab at Day 85; Group 3 received only MVA at Day 29, nivolumab at Day 36, and a conditional second MVA dose at Day 85 to evaluate anti-PD-1 inhibition timing. The conditional MVA dose was administered if participants had HBsAg ≥10 IU/mL. In 2023, the study inclusion criteria was amended from people with CHB with HBsAg ≥10 and About VTP-300 VTP-300 is an immunotherapeutic candidate consisting of an initial dose using the ChAdOx vector and a secondary dose(s) using the MVA vector, both encoding multiple HBsAg, including full-length surface, modified polymerase, and core antigens. VTP-300 is the first antigen-specific immunotherapy that has been shown to induce sustained reductions in HBsAg. Barinthus Bio is studying VTP-300 in combination with other agents, including siRNA and low-dose anti-PD-1 antibodies in the ongoing IM-PROVE II trial, to control the infection, and counterbalance the immune suppression and T cell exhaustion in the liver caused by chronic HBV infection. Barinthus Bio is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel immunotherapeutic candidates designed to guide the immune system to overcome chronic infectious diseases and autoimmunity. Helping people living with serious diseases and their families is the guiding principle at the heart of Barinthus Bio. With a focused pipeline built around our proprietary platform technologies, Barinthus Bio is advancing immunotherapeutic product candidates in infectious diseases and autoimmunity, including: VTP-300, utilizing our ChAdOx/MVA platform designed as a potential component of a functional cure for chronic HBV infection and VTP-1000, utilizing our SNAP-Tolerance Immunotherapy (SNAP-TI) platform and designed to treat people with celiac disease.
