Criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

All Participants (Parts A and B):

• Adult male or non-pregnant female individuals

• Documented evidence of chronic HBV infection

• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 10 × upper limit of normal (ULN)

Part A Only (renal impairment):

• Maintained on TDF and/or other OAV treatment(s) for CHB for at least 48 weeks and with viral suppression (HBV deoxyribonucleic acid [DNA] < lower limit of quantitation [LLOQ]) for ≥ 6 months prior to screening

• All individuals must have HBV DNA < 20 International units per milliliter (IU/mL) at screening by central laboratory

• Both Hepatitis B e-Antigen (HBeAg) positive and negative individuals are eligible to participate

• Moderate renal impairment (30 milliliters per minute [mL/min] ≤ estimated glomerular filtration rate by the cockcroft-gault formula [eGFRcg] ≤ 59 mL/min), severe renal impairment (15 mL/min ≤ eGFRcg < 30 mL/min) or end stage renal disease (ESRD) (eGFR < 15 mL/min) maintained on hemodialysis (HD)

• Stable renal function (for participants with moderate or severe impairment): serum creatinine measured at least once within three months prior to screening. The measurement difference between the value measured within three months prior to screening versus the screening value must be ≤ 25% of the screening value

Part B Only (hepatic impairment):

• Maintained on TDF and/or other OAV(s) for CHB for at least 48 weeks and with viral suppression (HBV DNA < LLOQ) for ≥ 6 months prior to screening

• All individuals must have HBV DNA < 20 IU/mL at screening by central laboratory

• Both HBeAg positive and negative individuals are eligible to participate

• Child-pugh-turcotte (CPT) score of 7-12 (inclusive) OR a past history of CPT score ≥ 7 and any CPT score ≤ 12 at screening

• eGFRCG ≥ 30 mL/min using the Cockcroft-Gault equation

Key Exclusion Criteria:

All Individuals (Parts A & B):

• Women who are breastfeeding or who believe they may wish to become pregnant during the course of the study

• Males and females of reproductive potential who are unwilling to use an "effective", protocol-specified method(s) of contraception during the study

• Co-infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or hepatitis D virus (HDV)

• Prior Interferon (IFN) use within 6 months of screening

• Evidence of hepatocellular carcinoma

• Received solid organ or bone marrow transplant

• Significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, or neurological disease

• Malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, with the exception of specific cancers that are cured by surgical resection (basal cell skin cancer, etc.). Individuals under evaluation for possible malignancy are not eligible

• Currently receiving therapy with immunomodulators (e.g. corticosteroids), nephrotoxic agents, or agents capable of modifying renal excretion

• Known hypersensitivity to study drugs, metabolites, or formulation excipients

• Current alcohol or substance abuse judged by the investigator to potentially interfere with individual's compliance

• Any other clinical condition or prior therapy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the individual unsuitable for the study or unable to comply with dosing requirements.

Part A Only (Renal Impairment):

• Current or historical evidence of clinical hepatic decompensation (e.g., ascites, encephalopathy or variceal hemorrhage)

• Abnormal hematological and biochemical parameters, including:

• Hemoglobin < 9 grams per deciliter (g/dL)

• Absolute neutrophil count < 750/cubic millimeter (mm^3)

• Platelets ≤ 50,000/mm^3

• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 10 × ULN

• Albumin < 3.0 g/dL

• Total bilirubin > 2.5 × ULN

• International normalized ratio of prothrombin time (INR) > 1.5 × ULN (unless stable on anticoagulant regimen)

• Individuals with ESRD (i.e. eGFRcg < 15 mL/min) not on HD, or those on other forms of renal replacement therapy (i.e. peritoneal dialysis)

Part B Only (Hepatic Impairment):

• Active variceal bleeding within 6 months or prior placement of a portosystemic shunt (such as transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt [TIPS])

• History of hepatorenal syndrome, hepatopulmonary syndrome, Grade 3 or Grade 4 hepatic encephalopathy, or spontaneous bacterial peritonitis within 6 months of screening

• Grade 2 hepatic encephalopathy at screening

• Model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score ≥ 30

• Abnormal hematological and biochemical parameters, including

• Absolute neutrophil count < 750/mm^3

• Platelets < 30,000/mm^3

• Hemoglobin < 8.0 g/dL

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
