Study summary

This is an open-label, non-randomized, multi-center, sequential group, safety, tolerance, and Pharmacokinetic study of a single dose of CMX001 administered at 2 mg/kg of ideal body weight rounded to the closest 20 mg in fasted healthy control subjects compared with that in fasted subjects with moderate and severe hepatic impairment.

Read the detailed description

A maximum of 24 subjects will be studied at multiple sites in the Unites States. Eight subjects with normal hepatic function and 8 subjects with moderate hepatic impairment will be enrolled on Cohort 1 and an additional 8 subjects with severe hepatic impairment may be enrolled in Cohort 2. The severity of hepatic impairment will be assessed according to the Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) score1 (see Table 4-2). Because CMX001 is highly protein-bound, to avoid confounding the PK assessment of hepatic impairment versus hypoalbuminemia, only patients with serum albumin levels >3 g/dL will be enrolled in this study.

Potential subjects will be screened to assess their eligibility to enter the study within 28 days prior to Check-in.

Subjects who have met inclusion and exclusion criteria will check in to the clinic on Day -1 and receive a single oral dose of CMX001 (2 mg/kg of ideal body weight rounded to the closest 20 mg) on Day 1. The study design schematic is presented in Table 4-3. Subjects will be discharged from the clinic on Day 2 (if stable in the opinion of the Investigator), return for outpatient visits on Days 3 through 6 for safety assessments and PK sampling, and return for an End of Study Visit on Day 14 ± 2 for safety assessments. Subjects may be confined to the clinic during the period of Day -1 to Day 6 at the discretion of the Investigator, after discussion with the Medical Monitor.

  7. Male subjects will either be sterile or agree to use from Check-in until 45 days following Study Discharge one of the following approved methods of contraception: a male condom with spermicide; a sterile sexual partner; or use by female sexual partner of an IUD with spermicide; a female condom with spermicide; contraceptive sponge with spermicide; an intravaginal system (e.g., NuvaRing®); a diaphragm with spermicide; a cervical cap with spermicide; or oral, implantable, transdermal, or injectable contraceptives.

For healthy subjects with normal hepatic function:

  1. Normal hepatic function defined as alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, bilirubin, serum albumin, and gamma glutamyl transferase all within normal limits;
  2. The absence of clinically-relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history, full physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), and clinical laboratory tests;
  3. Negative hepatitis panel (including HBsAg and hepatitis C virus antibody);
  4. No medical or surgical conditions that might significantly interfere with gastrointestinal absorption of CMX001.

For subjects with impaired hepatic function:

  1. Otherwise healthy subjects as determined by a detailed medical history, complete physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, and clinical laboratory tests (abnormal findings that are related to the subject's underlying condition are acceptable);
  2. Satisfy the criteria for Class B or Class C of the modified Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CPT) classification (mild [CPT score of 5 to 6 points], moderate [CPT score of 7 to 9 points], and severe [CPT score of >9 to \<12 points]);
  3. A diagnosis of chronic hepatic impairment due to cirrhosis or fibrosis, not secondary to other diseases, which is confirmed and documented by medical history, physical examination, and/or liver biopsy, hepatic ultrasound, computed tomography scan, or magnetic resonance imaging.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Significant history or clinical manifestation of any significant metabolic, allergic, dermatological, hepatic (healthy control subjects only), renal, hematological, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, or psychiatric disorder (as determined by the Investigator, Sponsor, and/or Sponsor's representative);
