Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: AUClast of Cilofexor

AUClast is defined as the concentration of drug from time zero to the last observable concentration.

Time frame: ≤ 5 minutes predose, and 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose on Day 1

Population: The PK Analysis Sets included all enrolled participants who took at least 1 dose of study drug and had at least 1 nonmissing postdose concentration value reported by the PK laboratory for the corresponding analytes. A participant with normal hepatic function might serve as a matched control across cohorts evaluating the same cilofexor dose.
