Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetic of Single Dose of Pitavastatin 4 mg in Severe Renal Patients Versus Healthy Adult Volunteers

Completed · Phase 4

Conditions studied: Severe Renal Impairment

In brief

This is a Phase 4, multicenter, open label, 1 period study. A total of 16 subjects are planned (8 subjects in Group A and 8 subjects in Group B): The 2 groups will be comparable in terms of age, gender, and body mass index (BMI); the ranges for comparison will be obtained from the pooled demographic data of the renally impaired subjects. The mean age of Group B will be within 5 years of the mean age of Group A, the mean BMI of Group B will be within 18% of the mean BMI of Group A, and the ratio of men to women in Group B will be the same as in Group A.
