The effect of moderately diminished liver function on the exposure, safety and tolerability of a single dose of FG-4592 is studied in male and female subjects. The results are compared to the data gained from subjects with normal liver function.
The effect of moderate hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of a single dose of FG-4592 in male and female subjects is investigated. Data obtained from these subjects are compared to data from BMI-, age- and sex-matched subjects with normal hepatic function. Both groups consist of 8 subjects. Screening takes place from Days -22 to -2 before admission to the clinical unit on Day -1. Administration of the trial medication takes place on Day 1 under fasted conditions. Healthy subjects are discharged on Day 5 and subjects with moderate hepatic impairment on Day 7, if there is no reason to extend the stay. An end-of-study visit (ESV) takes place 5 to 9 days after (early) discharge. Safety assessments are performed throughout the study.
