Treprostinil Palmitil Inhalation Powder: how liver function affects drug in a single-dose test
Official title: An Open-label, Phase 1 Trial to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of a Single Dose of 80 μg Treprostinil Palmitil Inhalation Powder in Participants With Normal Hepatic Function and Participants With Hepatic Impairment
Run by Insmed Incorporated · NCT07643155 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests how mild to severe liver impairment changes the amount of treprostinil palmitil and treprostinil in the body after one 80 mcg dose of TPIP in people with and without liver problems.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with BMI 18.0 to 40.0 kg/m^2, including those with stable hepatic impairment; healthy volunteers without liver disease for the normal function group.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with severe comorbidities or unstable liver disease, or those not matching hepatic impairment criteria, may not benefit from this PK-focused single-dose study.

What this trial studies
This Phase 1 interventional trial examines the pharmacokinetics and safety of a single 80 mcg dose of Treprostinil Palmitil Inhalation Powder (TPIP) in adults with normal hepatic function and those with mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment. Participants will be grouped by liver function and receive the same dose to compare how liver disease affects drug exposure. The study collects PK data and monitors safety signals to understand whether hepatic impairment alters clearance or distribution. Lead sponsor is Insmed Incorporated with sites in California and Florida. The study aims to inform dosing considerations for TPIP in patients with varying liver function.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, results could guide dosing or safety monitoring for TPIP in people with liver impairment.
How similar studies have gone: Previous PK studies of similar inhaled prostacyclin prodrugs have shown liver function can influence drug levels, but this exact TPIP single-dose PK in hepatic impairment is a newer evaluation.

Inclusion Criteria: * Body mass index between 18.0 and 40.0 kilograms per square meter (kg/m\^2), inclusive. Inclusion Criteria for Participants with Normal Hepatic Function * In good health, as determined by no clinically significant findings from medical history, physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), and vital signs measurements, and clinical laboratory assessments (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 (or designee). Inclusion Criteria for Participants With Hepatic Impairment: * Diagnosis of chronic (\>6 months), stable hepatic impairment with no clinically significant changes within 30 days prior to dosing, as determined by medical history. * Participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus may be included, if they have: * glycosylated hemoglobin A1C ≤8.5% at screening * fasting blood glucose ≤240 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), while participant is using their normal diabetes medication, at screening and check-in. Exclusion Criteria: * History of stomach or intestinal surgery or resection that would potentially alter absorption and/or excretion of orally administered drugs (uncomplicated appendectomy, cholecystectomy, and hernia repair are allowed). * Use or intend to use any moderate or strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP2C8 or CYP2C9 within 30 days prior to dosing. * Participation in a clinical trial involving administration of an investigational medicinal product (IMP) (new chemical entity) in the past 30 days or 5 half-lives of that drug (if known) prior to dosing, whichever is longer. Exclusion Criteria for Participants with Normal Hepatic Function * Significant history or clinical manifestation of any metabolic, allergic, dermatological, hepatic, renal, hematological, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, respiratory, endocrine, or psychiatric disorder, as determined by the investigator (or designee). * Positive hepatitis panel and/or positive human immunodeficiency virus test. Participants whose results are compatible with prior immunization may be included. * Positive urine drug screen at screening or positive alcohol test result or positive urine drug screen at check-in. Results that are compatible with marijuana use are not exclusionary. Exclusion Criteria for Participants With Hepatic Impairment: * Current organ transplant or waiting for organ transplant scheduled to occur during the trial. * Hospitalization for hepatic encephalopathy within 3 months prior to dosing. * Encephalopathy ≥Grade 2. * History of drug/chemical abuse within 1 year prior to check-in. Marijuana use is not exclusionary. Note: Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
