Investigation of Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Safety and Tolerability of Multiple Doses of Somapacitan in Subjects With Mild and Moderate Degrees of Hepatic Impairment Compared to Subjects With Normal Hepatic Function.

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Growth Hormone Disorder
Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency
Growth Hormone Deficiency in Children
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03212131
Lead Sponsor
Novo Nordisk A/S
Brief Summary

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to investigate the effect of abnormal liver (hepatic) function on the amount of trial drug getting into the body and removal of the drug from the body (this is called pharmacokinetics).

In this trial the participants will receive three subcutaneous (under the skin) injections of the trial drug somapacitan. Somapacitan is a long-acting growth hormone analogue (a drug similar to human growth hormone) intended for once-weekly subcutaneous administration.
