A study comparing how fast the trial drug RVX000222 is cleared from the body, in healthy adults and in adults with severely reduced kidney function.

Summary
RVX000222 is being developed to prevent major heart events in individuals at high risk of heart disease. RVX000222 is mainly cleared from the body by the liver, with only a small amount of each dose cleared by the kidneys. The study team wants to confirm this by comparing how RVX000222 is processed and cleared by the body,in adults with severely reduced kidney function and in adults whose kidneys are working normally. The study will also collect information about how safe and well toleratedRVX000222 is. Two groups will be enrolled for the study: Group 1: approximately 8 adults with severely reduced kidney function, and Group 2: approximately 8 adults with normal kidney function. Each participant in Group 2 will be selected as a 'match' for a Group 1 participant, based on age, weight, and gender. Every person in the study will take a single 100 mg dose of RVX000222, by mouth, on Day 1 of the study only. Levels of the study drug and its breakdown products will be measured in blood and urine samples collected at specific times after dosing, and any changes in health will be recorded. The results will provide important information about whether the dose of RVX000222 needs to be adjusted when used by patients with reduced kidney function.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria10
- Male or female between 18 and 80 years old, inclusive;
- If female, have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at Day -1, or meet at least one of the following criteria: post-surgical sterilization or two years postmenopausal.

Interventions
This will be an open-label, parallel group clinical study to evaluate the safety and Pharmacokinetics of a single 100 mg oral dose of RVX000222 in subjects with renal impairment and age-, weight-, and gender- matched healthy subjects. Two Cohorts of eight (8) subjects will be enrolled in the study: - Cohort 1: approximately eight (8) subjects with severe renal impairment, and - Cohort 2: approximately eight (8) healthy control subjects. Each participant in Cohort 2 will be selected as a 'match' for a Cohort 1 participant, based on age, weight, and gender. Each participant in the study will receive a single oral administration of the study drug, RVX000222 100mg capsule.
