Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

All Subjects:

1. Individuals who provide freely given written consent for participating in the study.

2. Men and women aged ≥ 18 and ≤ 75 years at the date of providing informed consent.

3. Subjects with a BMI in the range 18.0 to 40.0 kg/m2.

4. Females will not be pregnant or lactating, and females of childbearing potential and males will agree to use contraception.

5. Able to comprehend and willing to sign an ICF and to abide by the study restrictions.

Subjects with Hepatic Impairment:

6. Subjects must meet the criteria for mild or moderate hepatic impairment based on CP classification. Subjects will be classified at Screening based on CP score and classification will be repeated at Check-in. If the hepatic function classification for the subject is not the same at the 2 timepoints, enrollment of the subject into a hepatic category group will be based on the CP score at Screening.

7. Subjects have stable hepatic function with a diagnosis of chronic disease of > 6 months, defined as no clinically significant change in disease status within the 60 days prior to the Screening visit or 90 days prior to drug administration on Day 1 (whichever is longer), as documented by the subject's recent medical history.

8. Subjects are on a stable medication dose(s) and/or treatment regimen(s) for treatment of hepatic impairment during the 30 days preceding the first dose of IMP. Drugs known to be moderate-to-potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4/5 enzyme will not be allowed. Subjects requiring medications that are moderate-to-potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4/5 may have these medications discontinued for purposes of qualifying for at least 30 days prior to dosing day for this study. Adjustments may be made if deemed medically safe and also acceptable to the Sponsor and Medical Monitor.

9. Subjects with mild or moderate hepatic impairment may have medical findings consistent with their hepatic dysfunction, as determined by medical history, physical examination, 12-lead ECG, vital sign measurements, and clinical laboratory evaluations at Screening and Check-in. Subjects with abnormal findings considered not clinically significant by the Investigator will be eligible. Vital signs between the following ranges and stable (measured in a supine position after a minimum of 5 minutes supine):

1. Systolic blood pressure ≥ 90 and ≤ 160 mmHg

2. Diastolic blood pressure ≥ 50 and ≤ 95 mmHg

3. Pulse rate ≥ 45 and ≤ 100 bpm

Healthy Subjects with Normal Hepatic Function:

10. Subjects with no clinically significant abnormalities in liver function test results (AST, ALT, gamma-glutamyl transferase [γ-GTP], alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, albumin [Alb], and PT) at Screening and Check-in. In good health, determined by no clinically significant findings from medical history, physical examination, 12-lead ECG, vital signs measurements, and clinical laboratory evaluations (congenital nonhemolytic hyperbilirubinemia [eg, suspicion of Gilbert's syndrome based on total and direct bilirubin] is not acceptable) at Screening and Check-in as assessed by the Investigator. Vital signs between the following ranges and stable (measured in a supine position after a minimum of 5 minutes supine):

1. Systolic blood pressure ≥ 95 and ≤ 150 mmHg mmHg

2. Diastolic blood pressure ≥ 50 and ≤ 90 mmHg

3. Pulse rate ≥ 45 and ≤ 100 bpm
