How olverembatinib is processed in people with liver impairment

Official title: An Open-Label, Phase 1 Study to Investigate the Effect of Hepatic Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics of Olverembatinib

Run by Ascentage Pharma Group Inc. · NCT07282093 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This test gives a single 20 mg dose of olverembatinib to people with different levels of chronic liver impairment and matched healthy volunteers to see how the drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and cleared.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with chronic hepatic impairment classified as Child-Pugh A, B, or C who meet BMI, weight, and safety screening criteria, as well as matched healthy volunteers, are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients seeking therapeutic benefit for a medical condition should not expect clinical benefit from this single-dose PK study, and those with acute liver failure, unstable medical illness, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or outside the BMI/weight limits are unlikely to qualify or benefit.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a non-randomized, open-label, parallel single-dose pharmacokinetic study comparing participants with mild (Child-Pugh A), moderate (Child-Pugh B), and severe (Child-Pugh C) hepatic impairment to sex-, age-, and body weight-matched healthy volunteers. Each participant receives a single 20 mg oral dose of olverembatinib and undergoes timed blood sampling and safety monitoring to measure drug concentrations and standard tolerability parameters. The PK parameters (for example, Cmax, AUC, half-life, and clearance) will be compared across groups to characterize the effect of hepatic impairment on drug exposure. Results will be used to inform dosing recommendations for patients with impaired liver function.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the study could define safe dose adjustments for olverembatinib in people with liver impairment to reduce the risk of toxicity or underdosing.

How similar studies have gone: PK studies of other tyrosine kinase inhibitors in hepatic impairment have been successfully used to guide dose adjustments, so the approach is standard even if olverembatinib-specific data are limited.

2. Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kg/m² (inclusive), with male weight ≥ 50 kg and female weight ≥ 45 kg.
3. The investigator judges the participant suitable to participate in this study based on physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) examination.
4. Female participants of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception during the study and for 3 months after the study ends; must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to study enrollment; and must not be breastfeeding. Male participants must agree to use effective contraception during the study and for 3 months after the study ends.
5. Additional Criteria for Participants with hepatic impairment Only:

1\. Chronic hepatic impairment due to viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, or other causes.

2\. Hepatic impairment classified as Child-Pugh Class A, B, or C. 3. Coagulation function: INR ≤ 2.5 without intervention with procoagulant drugs (after a 2-week washout period).

Any of the following conditions: history of liver transplantation; presence of acute or worsening liver injury due to any cause; liver failure; concurrent Grade 3/4 hepatic encephalopathy; active hepatocellular carcinoma lesions; severe esophageal or gastric varices or history of rupture and bleeding; severe/late-stage ascites or pleural effusion requiring paracentesis/thoracentesis and albumin supplementation; hepatorenal syndrome; or any other condition deemed by the investigator as unsuitable for study participation.
3. History of cholestasis, biliary tract infection, or other diseases affecting bile excretion within 3 months prior to screening.
4. Esophageal or gastric variceal bleeding due to portal hypertension within 3 months prior to screening, or history of portosystemic shunt surgery (including Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt - TIPS) within 6 months prior to screening.
5. History of significant allergy or intolerance to any drug, food, or other substance.
6. History of any clinically significant disease in the neurological, cardiovascular, digestive, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, hematological, immune systems, or any other disease or condition that the investigator believes may affect the trial results.
7. History of surgery that may affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion, or plans for surgery or other reasons requiring hospitalization during the expected study period.
8. Uncontrolled bacterial, viral, parasitic, or fungal infection requiring treatment at the time of screening (except Hepatitis B), or history of severe active infection within 1 month prior to screening.
9. Positive Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) antigen/antibody test at screening. For participants with normal hepatic function: Positive Treponema pallidum antibody. For hepatically impaired participants: Active syphilis.
10. Use of systemic medications with known potential hepatotoxicity for 7 consecutive days or more within 14 days prior to study drug administration.

12. Systemic use of moderate or potent CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., itraconazole, fluconazole) or moderate or potent CYP3A4 inducers within 14 days prior to study drug administration.
13. Positive urine drug screen or alcohol breath test at screening.
