Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is a a single (open-label) and repeat dose (randomised, placebo controlled) trial to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of GB1211 (Gal-3 inhibitor) in participants with hepatic impairment (Child Pugh B and Child Pugh C)
| Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
|
Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
PART 1 A single dose, open-label safety and PK study of GB1211 administered to participants with moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh B) and to matched healthy participants (controls).
PART 2 A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in participants with moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh B). GB1211 or placebo will be administered daily for 12 weeks.
PART 3 A single dose, open-label safety and PK study of GB1211 administered to participants with severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh C) and to healthy participants (controls).
