Effect of Mild and Moderate Hepatic Impairment (Defined by Child-Pugh Classification and National Cancer Institute Organ Dysfunction Working Group Criteria) on Pexidartinib Pharmacokinetics.

ABSTRACT: Pexidartinib is a novel oral small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor. Pexidartinib undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism via multiple cytochrome P450 and uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyl transferase enzymes, with ZAAD-1006a as the only major metabolite in human plasma. As pexidartinib is extensively metabolized, hepatic impairment (HI) could lead to increased exposure to pexidartinib. The objective of the two phase 1, open-label studies was to determine the pharmacokinetics of pexidartinib after a single 200-mg dose in subjects with mild and moderate HI, based on Child-Pugh classification (PL3397-A-U123: 8 mild HI and 8 moderate HI vs 16 matched healthy controls) and National Cancer Institute Organ Dysfunction Working Group (NCI-ODWG) c
