Pharmacokinetics of Gepotidacin in Subjects With Normal Hepatic Function and Hepatic Impairment.

ABSTRACT: Gepotidacin is a novel triazaacenaphthylene bacterial topoisomerase inhibitor. This phase 1 nonrandomized, open-label, multicenter, 2-part study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of oral gepotidacin 1500 mg in 3 different hepatic settings (normal, moderate impairment, and severe impairment). Gepotidacin was safe and generally tolerated in all subjects. Compared to subjects with normal hepatic function, gepotidacin plasma area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC_0-∞ ) and maximum concentration significantly increased by 1.7- and 1.9-fold, respectively, in severe hepatic impairment; increases in moderate impairment were not statistically significant. No significant effect was observed for gepotidacin plasma elimination half-
