    Review, Journal:  RNA Interference Therapy for Chronic Hepatitis B Predicts the Importance of Addressing Viral Integration When Developing Novel Cure Strategies. (Pubmed Central) -  Aug 14, 2021   
    Early clinical testing with the first of these agents in the clinic, ARC-520, demonstrated that rapid and deep reductions in viral proteins, RNA and DNA could be produced with this approach, but also the surprising insight that HBsAg production from incomplete HBV DNA integrated into the host genome appears to play a heretofore unappreciated and important role in maintaining circulating HBsAg, thought to play a fundamental role in preventing host clearance of the virus. Thus, accounting for viral DNA integration in novel HBV treatment approaches may prove to be essential to achieving successful finite therapies of this difficult to treat chronic infection.

    Clinical, Journal:  RNA Interference Therapy with ARC-520 Results in Prolonged HBsAg Response in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Infection. (Pubmed Central) -  May 7, 2021   
    ARC-520 was well tolerated, with only two SAEs of pyrexia possibly related to study drug observed. In conclusion, ARC-520 was active in both E-neg and E-pos, NUC experienced HBV patients, but absolute HBsAg reductions were moderate, possibly due to expression of HBsAg from integrated HBV DNA, indicating the need for RNAi therapeutics that can target viral transcripts regardless of origin.
