The influence of severely diminished liver function on the metabolism, safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of enzalutamide in a group of 8 men. The results are compared to the data gained from 8 age- and BMI-matched men with normal liver function.
Screening takes place between Day -22 and Day -2, and subjects are admitted to the clinic on Day -1. Each subject receives a single oral dose of enzalutamide on Day 1, under fasted conditions. They are discharged on Day 7; ambulant visits take place until Day 50. An End of Study Visit (ESV) occurs 7-10 days after the last PK sampling or early withdrawal. Full PK profiles are obtained for enzalutamide, metabolite 1 of enzalutamide (M1) and metabolite 2 of enzalutamide (M2) up to 1176 hours (Day 50) after administration. Safety assessments are performed throughout the study. For subjects with severe hepatic impairment, additional Child-Pugh classification and laboratory safety tests (including liver function tests) are performed regularly after administration.
