Healthy Volunteers, Hepatic Impairment
Conditions
Brief summary
The study medicine NNC0194-0499 is under development for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). All participants will receive a single dose of 30 milligram (mg) of the study medicine. The study medicine will be given in the form of an injection of 0.6 millilitres in a skinfold of the thigh (subcutaneous). The study will last for up to 64 days. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period. Women who are able to become pregnant must use highly effective contraception and will be counselled on the use of contraception. Participants with impaired liver function will undergo an ultrasound of the belly and measurement of brain activity.
Interventions
NNC0194-0499 will be administered subcutaneously in a skinfold in the thigh in the form of a solution for injection.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|

| tmax, NNC0194-0499: the time from dose administration to maximum serum concentration of NNC0194-0499 | From Day 1 (pre-dose) until completion of the post-treatment follow-up visit (Day 36) | Measured in hours. |
| t1/2, NNC0194-0499: the terminal half-life of NNC0194-0499 in serum | From Day 1 (pre-dose) until completion of the post-treatment follow-up visit (Day 36) | Measured in hours. |
| CL/F, NNC0194-0499: the apparent total serum clearance of NNC0194-0499 | From Day 1 (pre-dose) until completion of the post-treatment follow-up visit (Day 36) | Measured in liters per hour. |
| Vz/F, NNC0194-0499: apparent volume of distribution of NNC0194-0499 after a single dose | From Day 1 (pre-dose) until completion of the end of trial visit (Day 36) | Measured in liters. |
| Number of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) | From time of trial product administration (Visit 2, Day 1) until completion of the end of trial visit (Visit 8, Day 36) | Measured as number of events. |
