Clinical Trial Summary

The study is intended to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) reduction, safety and tolerability of AZD8233 in male and female participants with severe renal impairment and participants with ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants.

Description:

This is an open-label, single dose, non-randomised, parallel group study. Participant will be enrolled in 3 cohorts. - Cohort 1 will include 8 participants with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] of ≥15 to < 30 mL/min/1.73 m^2). - Cohort 2 will include 8 healthy participants with normal renal function (eGFR of ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m^2) that will serve as matched controls for Cohort 1 and Cohort 3. Matching will account for age, Body mass index (BMI), and gender. - Cohort 3 will include 8 participants with ESRD on dialysis (eGFR of < 15 mL/min/1.73 m^2). - Participants in Cohort 3 will receive a single dose of AZD8233 the day after haemodialysis. Participant will receive the study drug on Day 1, discharged on Day 2 followed by out-patient follow-up visits on Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56, and 90.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Observed maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)	The pharmacokinetics (PK) parameter of AZD8233 full-length antisense oligonucleotide (ASOs) in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations. Cmax is defined as observed maximum plasma concentration of AZD8233.	Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90
Primary	Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf)	The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations. AUCinf is defined as area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity of AZD8233. AUCinf is estimated by AUClast + Clast/?z where Clast is the observed last quantifiable drug concentration.	Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90
Primary	Area under the plasma concentration-curve from time zero to time of last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)	The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations.
