About this trial

The primary purpose of the study is to determine the effect of mild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment on the PK of total treprostinil palmitil (TP) and treprostinil (TRE) following a single dose of 80 micrograms (μg) TPIP, when compared to normal hepatic function.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Body mass index between 18.0 and 40.0 kilograms per square meter (kg/m²), inclusive.

In good health, as determined by no clinically significant findings from medical history, physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), and vital signs measurements, and clinical laboratory assessments (congenital nonhemolytic hyperbilirubinemia [eg, suspicion of Gilbert's syndrome based on total and direct bilirubin] is not acceptable) at screening and check-in, as assessed by the investigator (or designee).

Diagnosis of chronic (>6 months), stable hepatic impairment with no clinically significant changes within 30 days prior to dosing, as determined by medical history.

glycosylated hemoglobin A1C ≤8.5% at screening

Disqualifiers

History of stomach or intestinal surgery or resection that would potentially alter absorption and/or excretion of orally administered drugs (uncomplicated appendectomy, cholecystectomy, and hernia repair are allowed).

Use or intend to use any moderate or strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP2C8 or CYP2C9 within 30 days prior to dosing.

Participation in a clinical trial involving administration of an investigational medicinal product (IMP) (new chemical entity) in the past 30 days or 5 half-lives of that drug (if known) prior to dosing, whichever is longer.

Significant history or clinical manifestation of any metabolic, allergic, dermatological, hepatic, renal, hematological, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, respiratory, endocrine, or psychiatric disorder, as determined by the investigator (or designee).
