| Main Objective: Primary objective(s) To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of AEB071 and primary metabolite, AEE800, in liver transplant patients in the immediate post transplant period To evaluate the safety and tolerability of AEB071 in liver transplant patients;Secondary Objective: Secondary objective(s) Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in the presence of AEB071 Evaluate biliary excretion of AEB071and primary metabolite, AEE800, from patients with a T-tube. Evaluate the relationship of free drug concentration, α-1 acid glycoprotein concentration and pharmacokinetics of AEB071;Primary end point(s): The primary end point of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of AEB071 and primary metabolite, AEE800, in liver transplant patients in the immediate post transplant period. As a statistical analysis to support the primary end point, geometric mean estimates of AUC0-t, AUC0-∞ and Cmax and their 90% confidence intervals will be calculated for both periods. | — |
