Precision BioSciences receives CTA approval to expand Eliminate-B trial

Precision BioSciences (DTIL) announced that it has received Clinical Trial Application, CTA, approval to expand the ongoing global Eliminate-B clinical trial of PBGENE-HBV. The regulatory authorization will allow Precision to initiate important hepatitis B clinical trial sites in France and Romania. This expansion broadens the trial’s global footprint deeper into Europe, adding to existing clinical trial sites in the United Kingdom, Moldova, New Zealand, Hong Kong and the United States. The Company expects the addition of clinical trial sites in France and Romania to support continued patient enrollment and clinical execution in Eliminate-B with the goal to treat as many clinical trial patients as possible with PBGENE-HBV. Site initiation activities are underway, with initial patient screening expected in Q2 2026.
