A Single Dose Study of Oral Vadadustat in Subjects With Normal and Impaired Hepatic Function
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase I open-label study to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of a single oral dose of vadadustat in subjects with hepatic impairment(HI) compared to healthy matched control subjects with normal hepatic function.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This is an open label, parallel-group, single dose, Phase 1 study to evaluate the PK profile, safety, and tolerability of a single oral 450 mg dose of vadadustat in subjects with hepatic impairment relative to control subjects with normal hepatic function. The study will enroll up to 24 subjects in 3 groups of 8 subjects at 2 study sites. Blood samples for vadadustat PK and its metabolites will be collected pre-dose and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72 hours post-dose.
