Clinical pharmacology

Study on the safety of BAY 63-2521, how it is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and gets rid of the study drug given as a single oral dose of 1 mg tablet in participants with impaired liver function and healthy participants matched for age-, gender-, and weight

Trial purpose

BAY 63-2521 is intended to be used for a disease that affects the blood flow through the lungs. Renal impairment is a common condition in patients with this disease. The goal of the study is to learn more about the safety of BAY 63-2521, how it is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and gets rid of the study dug given as a single oral dose of 1 mg tablet in participants with renal impairment and healthy participants matched for age-, gender-, and weight
