Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The main aim of this study is to learn how the body processes fazirsiran (pharmacokinetics [PK]) in people with mild, moderate, or severe liver problems, compared to people with normal liver function.

The study will include participants with liver scarring (cirrhosis) and mild, moderate, or severe liver problems, and participants with normal liver function. All participants will be given 1 injection of fazirsiran and will be followed up for 6 months after the fazirsiran injection.

    Key Inclusion Criteria for Participants with Hepatic Impairment and Participants with Normal Hepatic Function

    • A 12-lead ECG at screening that, in the opinion of the investigator, has no abnormalities that compromise the participant's safety in this study.

    • Normal lung function.

    • No abnormal finding of clinical relevance at screening or before dosing that in the opinion of the investigator could adversely impact participant safety during the study or adversely impact study results.

    Key Inclusion Criteria for Participants with Hepatic Impairment:

    • The participant has portal vein thrombosis, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), or surgical portosystemic shunt.

    • The participant has required endoscopic treatment of esophageal or gastric varices or paracentesis to control ascites within the last 3 months of dosing.

    • The participant has chronic hepatitis B (hepatitis B surface antigen positive, or positive for both hepatitis B surface antibody and hepatitis B core antibody but negative for hepatitis B surface antigen); or has chronic or incompletely or unsuccessfully treated hepatitis C (as demonstrated by a positive hepatitis C antibody and positive polymerase chain reaction [PCR]).

    • The participant has any of the following clinically significant abnormal parameters at screening:

    • ALT or AST levels >250 units per liter (U/L) at screening.
