Liver impairment drug study completed: what happens to BPN14770?
NCT ID NCT07018492
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at how the drug BPN14770 is handled by the body in people with mild, moderate, or severe liver impairment compared to healthy people. A total of 32 adults took a single dose of the drug. Researchers measured drug levels in the blood and checked for side effects. The goal was to understand if liver problems change how the drug works, which is important for future safe use.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- BPN14770
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study will help determine safe dosing of BPN14770 for people with liver problems, potentially guiding future treatment use.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early phase 1 study with only 32 people. It focuses on drug processing, not on treating any disease, so it may not lead to a new therapy.

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Considered to be healthy (for healthy participants) or medically stable (for participants with hepatic impairment), as determined by medical evaluation. * Body weight ≥ 50 kilograms (kg) and body mass index (BMI) within the range ≥ 18.5 to \< 40.0 kilograms per square meter (kg/m\^2). * A diagnosis of clinically stable hepatic disease for at least 1 month prior to the screening visit, confirmed by medical history or previous confirmation of hepatic cirrhosis by liver biopsy or medical imaging technique. * Mild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment based on the Child-Pugh classification score at the screening visit and Day ˗1 to determine eligibility: * Mild (Class A) hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification score 5 to 6) * Moderate (Class B) hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification score 7 to 9) * Severe (Class C) hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification score 10 to 15) * Healthy Participants matched to each participant with moderate hepatic impairment with respect to sex, age (± 10 years), and BMI (± 10%) Key Exclusion Criteria: * History or presence of/significant history of or current cardiovascular, respiratory, hepatic, gastrointestinal, endocrinological, hematological, or neurological disorders capable of significantly altering the absorption, metabolism, or elimination of drugs; constituting a risk when taking the study intervention; or interfering with the interpretation of data, in the judgment of the investigator. * Blood loss or blood donation that exceeds 500 milliliters (mL) within 56 days prior to or at the screening visit or donation of any amount of blood from the screening visit until admission to the clinical research unit (CRU). * Healthy participants: * Clinical laboratory values outside the reference range during the screening period or on Day ˗1 and considered clinically significant by the investigator * Alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase \> 1.5 \* the upper limit of normal (ULN) or bilirubin ≥ 1.0 \* the ULN. * Participants with hepatic impairment: * Participant with clinically significant laboratory values in the opinion of the investigator or outside the acceptable ranges or limits during the screening period.
