Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Single-Dose Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: AUClast of Cilofexor
AUClast is defined as the concentration of drug from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration.
Single-Dose PK Parameter: AUCinf of Cilofexor
AUCinf is defined as the concentration of drug extrapolated to infinite time (area under the plasma concentration versus time curve extrapolated to infinite time).
Single-Dose PK Parameter: Cmax of Cilofexor
Cmax is defined as the maximum observed concentration of drug in plasma.
Multiple-Dose PK Parameter: AUCtau of Cilofexor
AUCtau is the concentration of drug over time (area under the plasma concentration versus time curve over the dosing interval).
Multiple-Dose PK Parameter: Cmax of Cilofexor
Cmax is defined as the maximum observed concentration of drug in plasma.
Multiple-Dose PK Parameter: Ctau of Cilofexor
Ctau is defined as the observed drug concentration at the end of the dosing interval.
Percentage of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event (AE)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Percentage of Participants With Clinically Significant 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities
Investigator determined the ECG findings were clinically significant.
Percentage of Participants With Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities
Treatment-emergent laboratory (Hematology, Chemistry, and Urinalysis) abnormalities were defined as values that increase at least one toxicity grade from baseline. Laboratory Abnormalities are graded by the investigator as Grade 1, 2, 3, or 4 according to the modified Gilead Sciences, Inc (GSI) Grading Scale. The most severe graded abnormality from all tests was counted for each participant. Data is only reported for those Grades reported in 1 or more participants.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Pharmacodynamic (PD) Parameter: Fibroblast Growth Factor 19 (FGF19) AUC2-12 Ratio
AUC2-12 is defined as the AUC from time 2 to 12 hours. The ratios calculated were normalized to Day -1. Participants received a single placebo tablet at Day -1 for Baseline. The ratio reported for Day 1 is the AUC2-12 Day 1 /AUC2-12 Day-1. The ratio reported for Day 20 is the AUC2-12 Day 20 /AUC2-12 Day-1.
PD Parameter: FGF19 Cmax Ratio
Cmax is defined as the maximum observed concentration of FGF19 in plasma. The ratios calculated were normalized to Day -1. Participants received a single placebo tablet at Day -1 for Baseline. The ratio reported for Day 1 is the Cmax Day 1 /Cmax Day-1. The ratio reported for Day 20 is the Cmax Day 20 /Cmax Day-1.
PD Parameter: 7alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one (C4) AUC2-12 Ratio
AUC2-12 is defined as the AUC from time 2 to 12 hours. The ratios calculated were normalized to Day -1. Participants received a single placebo tablet at Day -1 for Baseline. The ratio reported for Day 1 is the AUC2-12 Day 1 /AUC2-12 Day-1. The ratio reported for Day 20 is the AUC2-12 Day 20 /AUC2-12 Day-1.
PD Parameter: C4 Cmin Ratio
Cmin is defined as the minimum observed concentration of C4 in plasma. The ratios calculated were normalized to Day -1. Participants received a single placebo tablet at Day -1 for Baseline. The ratio reported for Day 1 is the Cmin Day 1 /Cmin Day-1. The ratio reported for Day 20 is the Cmin Day 20 /Cmin Day-1.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating single- and multiple-oral doses of cilofexor, and characterize the single- and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of cilofexor. The study will be conducted in 3 parts (Part A, Part B, and Part C). Participants will receive either cilofexor or cilofexor placebo. Part A will proceed in 4 prespecified staggered cohorts. Within each cohort, the cumulative, blinded safety data will be evaluated for dose escalation from single-dose (Period 1) to multiple-dose (Period 2). Based on the available safety, pharmacokinetics, and/or pharmacodynamics (PD) data from cohorts in Part A and Part C (if applicable), total daily doses and frequency of dosing will be chosen for the cohorts in Part B. Parts B and C will consist of adaptive cohorts and may be initiated in parallel. Part B cohorts may be initiated in parallel with cohorts in Part A if the total dose under evaluation is at or below a dose already evaluated. This study is partially blinded (no one is blinded on Day -1).
