Several therapeutic options have been developed to improve our ability to cure chronic HBV infection(1). In this issue of Hepatology, Fergusson et al describe the development of HBV-specific "Immune mobilizing monoclonal T cell receptors Against Virus" (ImmTAV), a novel and elegant immune therapeutic strategy designed to substitute and potentially restore HBV-specific CD8T cells in chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) patients.
