Inclusion criteria

  • between 18.0 and 40.0 kilograms per square meter (kg/m\^2), inclusive.

Inclusion Criteria for Participants with Normal Hepatic Function

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

Inclusion Criteria for Participants With Hepatic Impairment:

  • Diagnosis of chronic (>6 months), stable hepatic impairment with no clinically significant changes within 30 days prior to dosing, as determined by medical history.
  • Participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus may be included, if they have:

    • glycosylated ≤8.5% at screening
    • fasting blood glucose ≤240 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), while participant is using their normal diabetes medication, at screening and check-in.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • 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 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.

Exclusion Criteria for Participants with Normal Hepatic Function

  • 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).
  • Positive hepatitis panel and/or positive test. Participants whose results are compatible with prior immunization may be included.
  • Positive urine drug screen at screening or positive alcohol test result or positive urine drug screen at check-in. Results that are compatible with marijuana use are not exclusionary.

Exclusion Criteria for Participants With Hepatic Impairment:

  • Current organ transplant or waiting for organ transplant scheduled to occur during the trial.
  • Hospitalization for hepatic encephalopathy within 3 months prior to dosing.
  • Encephalopathy ≥Grade 2.
  • History of drug/chemical abuse within 1 year prior to check-in. Marijuana use is not exclusionary.

Note: Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

BMI (body mass index)

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.

What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

HbA1c

A blood test of average blood sugar over the past two to three months, given as a percentage or in mmol/mol. 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or more is the usual threshold for diabetes, normally confirmed by a second test.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
