Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Metabolism of FTY720 in Patients With Severe Renal Impairment and Healthy Matched Subjects.

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Renal Insufficiency
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00731523
Lead Sponsor
Novartis
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics of FTY720 and its metabolites in patients with severe renal insufficiency and in matched, healthy volunteers. This study will allow a better understanding of the effects of renal insufficiency on the disposition of FTY720.

  • Renal function should have been stable within the 3 months prior to study start.
  • Patients with diabetes and/or hypertension who are in otherwise in good health may be included. However patients with diabetes must not have clinical evidence of gastropathy or enteropathy.
Exclusion Criteria

All Subjects/Patients:
