About this study
Official title: A Phase I, Multicentre, Single-Dose, Non-Randomised, Open-Label, Parallel-Group Study to Investigate the Effect of Hepatic Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of AZD9550 and AZD6234
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and tolerability of AZD6234 and AZD9550 in participants with hepatic impairment and participants with normal hepatic function.
Read the detailed description
This Phase I, open-label, parallel group study will investigate the single SC dose PK, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of separate administrations of AZD9550 and AZD6234 to male and female participants with severe and moderate hepatic impairment compared to matched controls with normal hepatic function.
To minimize any potential impact from AZD9550 administered in Period 1, AZD6234 will be administered in Period 2 following a washout period. Results from separate injections will ultimately inform the single dose PK, safety, and tolerability of AZD9550 and AZD6234 administered.
Approximately 56 participants will be screened to achieve a total of 16 planned for study intervention (8 per group for CP Class C and CP Class B) with 6 evaluable participants in each of the 2 impairment groups (severe and moderate), and up to 12 participants with normal hepatic function. Initially 8 participants with normal hepatic function will be recruited, matched on a group level regarding sex, age, and BMI to the participants with hepatic impairment. Additional participants with normal hepatic function, up to a total of 12, may be included if needed to meet the matching criteria.
Child-Pugh scoring will be used to determine the level of hepatic impairment. Participants will be enrolled into the following groups based on their CP classification score as determined by a local laboratory at screening:
Group 1: Participants with severe hepatic impairment (CP Class C, score of 10 to 15).
Group 2: Participants with moderate hepatic impairment (CP Class B, score of 7 to 9).
Group 3: Participants with normal hepatic function matched on a group level regarding sex, age, and BMI to the participants with hepatic impairment

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing AZD6234 and AZD9550 in people with Hepatic Impairment, run by AstraZeneca at 4 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 37 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact AstraZeneca Clinical Study Information Center (1-877-240-9479, information.center@astrazeneca.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
PK parameters AUCinf (time frame: Day 0 through Day 56). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2026.
