Official title

A 2-part, Open-label, Single-dose Study to Investigate the Influence of Hepatic Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics of MK-8189

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of elpipodect in participants with moderate hepatic impairment (based on the Child-Pugh classification) to healthy participants. This is Part 1 of the study; following review of the safety and PK data from Part 1, a decision will be made as to whether Part 2 of the study will be initiated. If done, Part 2 of the study will compare the PK of elpipodect in participants with mild hepatic impairment to healthy participants.
