Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine the concentration of canagliflozin in blood and urine samples after the administration of canagliflozin to study participants with mild or moderate hepatic (liver) impairment compared with study participants with normal hepatic function.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Details

• Lead Sponsor: Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C.
• Treatments: Canagliflozin

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• All study participants must have a body mass index (ie, a measure of one's weight in relation to height) between 18 and 33 kg/m2 (inclusive)

• Study participants with normal hepatic function must have blood pressure at screening and before study drug administration between 90 and 160 mmHg systolic, inclusive, and 55 and 100 mmHg diastolic, inclusive

• Study participants with normal hepatic function should be comparable to the groups with hepatic impairment with respect to mean (average) age (range of +/- 15 years) and mean weight (range of +/- 25%)

• Study participants with mild or moderate hepatic impairment must be otherwise in acceptable clinical condition on the basis results from prestudy assessments, have a total Child-Pugh score of 5 or 6 (mild hepatic impairment) or a score of between 7 and 9, inclusive (moderate hepatic impairment)

• In study participants with mild or moderate hepatic impairment, concomitant therapy to treat underlying disease states or medical conditions related to hepatic insufficiency are allowed

Exclusion Criteria:

• Study participants with normal hepatic function who have a history of or current medical illness deemed clinically significant by the investigator, use of any prescription or nonprescription medication, except for acetaminophen, oral contraceptives and hormonal replacement therapy within 14 days before the study drug administration, and have a positive test for drugs of abuse before study drug administration

• Study participants with mild or moderate hepatic impairment who have a positive test for drugs of abuse, have severe ascites or pleural effusion (accumulation of fluid in the abdomen and lungs, respectively), have a score of 3 or 4 for hepatic encephalopathy

• have acute exacerbation (worsening) of liver disease, as indicated by worsening clinical signs of hepatic impairment, or by an increase in total bilirubin (a liver function test) or prothrombin time (ie, the time it takes blood to clot) of more than 50% in the 3 months prior to study entry
