The purpose of this study is to determine if the pharmacokinetic profile of Fevipiprant is different in patients with hepatic impairment compared to healthy matched volunteers to an extent that would require an adjustment of the dosage. Data from this study will be used to guide enrollment criteria in future clinical trials and to support regulatory submission and labeling information.
