A Study in Adults to Investigate the Impact of Mild, Moderate, and Severe Hepatic Impairment on Pharmacokinetics of Venglustat Compared to Participants With Normal Hepatic Function

United States, Germany26 participantsStarted 2023-01-18

Plain-language summary

This is a parallel, Phase 1, four arm, open-label, single dose, multicenter study to evaluate the impact of hepatic impairment on venglustat exposure following treatment with venglustat. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of mild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment on PK, safety, and tolerability of venglustat compared with normal hepatic function in male and female participants aged 18 to 79 years. Study details include: * The total study duration per participant will be up to 42 days, including up to 21 days for screening and approximately 21 days from institutionalization to the end of study (EOS). * Institutionalization is mandatory until the activities on D5 have been completed. * Each participant will receive a single dose of venglustat. * For hepatically impaired participants there will be a screening visit, a multi-day institutionalization visit, and 7 site visits after D5 discharge, including the end of study (EOS) visit. * For healthy volunteers there will be a screening visit, a multi-day institutionalization visit and 3 site visits after D5 discharge, including the end of study (EOS) visit.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participant must be 18 to 79 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent. * Body weight between 50.0 and 115.0 kg, inclusive, if male; between 40.0 and 100 kg, inclusive, if female, and body mass index (BMI) within the range 18 to 40 kg/m2, inclusive, at screening. * Contraception (with double contraception methods) for male and female participants; not pregnant or breastfeeding for female participants; no sperm donation for male participants. * Female participants must refrain from donating ova/ovum. * Capable of giving signed informed consent. Participants with mild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment * Stable chronic liver disease assessed by medical history, physical examination, and laboratory values. Hepatic impairment will be assessed according to the Child-Pugh classification, using CPS (Mild hepatic impairment is defined as a total score ranging from 5 to 6, inclusive (CPS-A); Moderate hepatic impairment is defined as a total score ranging from 7 to 9, inclusive (CPS-B); and severe hepatic impairment is defined as a total score ranging from 10 to 15, inclusive (CPS-C). * Laboratory parameters within the acceptable range for participants with hepatic impairment; however, serum creatinine should be strictly at or below the upper laboratory norm and eGFR should be \>= 60 mL/min. Participants with normal hepatic function * Certified as healthy by a comprehensive clinical assessment (detailed medical history and comp…

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
