Study Summary

This was a Phase I, open-label, single-dose, parallel-group study in participants with mild hepatic impairment (HI) and healthy matched control participants with normal hepatic function designed to evaluate the PK of pelacarsen following a single 80 mg s.c. dose. Participants were matched by gender, age (±10 years), and body weight (±15%).

Primary Outcome

The maximum (peak) observed drug concentration in after single-dose administration (mass x volume-1). To assess the PK properties of plasma pelacarsen after a single s.c. injection in participants with mild HI (Child-Pugh classification) as compared to matched healthy participants with normal hepatic function.
