Inclusion criteria

Subjects with hepatic impairment must meet all of the following criteria to enter this study.

1. Sign the informed consent form before the trial, and fully understand the content, process and possible adverse effects of the trial, and be willing to strictly comply with the requirements of the trial program to complete the study.

2. 18 to 75 years of age (both sexes) on the date of signing the informed consent form.

3. Males weighing ≥ 50 kg, females weighing ≥ 45 kg, with a body mass index (BMI) in the range of 18 kg/m 2 ~32 kg/m 2 (including threshold values).

4. Chronic, stable (no clinically significant change in disease status prior to study drug administration, as determined by the investigator), hepatic impairment due to primary liver disease (e.g., hepatitis B, hepatitis C, autoimmune hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, alcoholic liver disease, etc.), assessed as Grade A/mild (Child-Pugh score: 5-6) or Grade B/moderate (Child-Pugh score: 7-9) prior to study drug administration; in which the investigator uses standardized diagnostic techniques, the investigator uses standard diagnostic techniques, and the investigator uses standardized treatment methods to determine whether the disease is clinically stable or clinically stable. Those who have Grade A/mild (Child-Pugh Score: 5-6) or Grade B/moderate (Child-Pugh Score: 7-9) liver dysfunction; among them, those who are diagnosed with chronic liver dysfunction by the investigator using standardized diagnostic methods, combined with the patient's past medical history, laboratory tests, liver biopsy, or imaging studies, etc. will be evaluated according to the Child-Pugh Score;

5. have had a stable regimen of medications for hepatic impairment, complications, and other concomitant conditions for at least 14 days prior to administration of study drug, which does not require adjustment of the medication (including type of medication, dosage, or frequency of medication) (except for subjects with moderate hepatic impairment who require the use of an oral diuretic at any time if ascites is present); or have not been on medication.

6. Vital organ function meets the following criteria.

   • Neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.0 x 10 9 /L (1,000/mm 3 ).
   • Platelets ≥ 50.0 x 10 9 /L (50,000/mm 3 ).
   • Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥7.0 g/dL (70 g/L).
   • Albuminous aminotransferase (ALT) and albuminous aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN);
   • Creatinine clearance (CLcr, calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula for creatinine clearance, Annex II) > 60mL/min.
   • QTc interval (QTcF) corrected by Fridericia's criteria ≤470 msec in men and ≤480 msec in women.

7. The investigator determines the acceptable physical status based on the subject's medical history, physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests (routine blood, blood biochemistry, urinalysis, coagulation, etc.), and 12-lead electrocardiogram;

8. Male and female subjects of childbearing potential are willing to use adequate and effective contraception after signing the informed consent form, during the study, and for 6 months after administration of study medication; women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 24 days prior to study drug administration.

Healthy subjects must meet all of the following criteria to enter this study.

1. Sign the informed consent form before the trial, and fully understand the content, process and possible adverse effects of the trial, and be willing to strictly comply with the requirements of the trial program to complete the study.
2. On the date of signing the informed consent form, the patients were 18 to 75 years old (including both ends)(required age matching with the liver function impairment group, the average age of the healthy subjects group was within the range of the average age of the mild and moderate liver function impairment group ±10 years), both men and women (required gender matching with the liver function impairment group, the average age of the liver function impairment group was within the range of the liver function impairment group ±10 years). The number of subjects per sex in the healthy group was required to be similar to that in the mild and moderate liver dysfunction groups (±1 subject/sex).
3. Male weight ≥ 50 kg, female weight ≥ 45 kg, body mass index (BMI) within the range of 18 kg/m 2 ~32 kg/m 2 (including the threshold value) (to be weight-matched with the hepatic impairment group, the average weight of the healthy subjects group is within the range of the average weight of the group with mild and moderate hepatic impairment ± 10 kg).
4. Normal or abnormal physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests (blood, blood biochemistry, urine, prothrombin, etc.), 12-lead electrocardiogram, abdominal ultrasound, etc. that are not clinically significant in the judgment of the investigator.
5. Male and female subjects of childbearing potential are willing to use adequate and effective contraception after signing the informed consent form, during the study period, and for 6 months after taking the study drug; women of childbearing potential must have had a negative serum pregnancy test within 24 h prior to the administration of study drug.

Exclusion criteria

Subjects with hepatic impairment will be excluded from the study if they meet any of the following criteria.

1. Subjects with any of the following conditions: drug induced liver injury; history of liver transplantation; cirrhotic patients with liver failure or complications such as grade 3/4 hepatic encephalopathy, ruptured varices of the fundus esophagus, or hemorrhage, which in the opinion of the investigator are inappropriate; severe/advanced peritoneal or pleural effusions requiring puncture drainage and albumin supplementation.
