A Phase 1, Non-randomized, Open-label, Single Dose Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Ertugliflozin (MK-8835/PF-04971729) in Subjects With Hepatic Impairment and the Healthy Subjects With Normal Hepatic Function

This is a study to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety of ertugliflozin (MK-8835,
PF-04971729) in participants with hepatic impairment versus healthy participants. In Part 1
of the study, participants with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score 7-9) and
matched healthy participants will be enrolled; depending on results in Part 1, Part 2 may be
conducted and will enroll participants with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score 5-6).


Inclusion Criteria:

ALL PARTICIPANTS:

- Body Mass Index (BMI) of 18 to 40 kg/m^2; and a total body weight >50 kg (110 lbs)

- Male or female not of reproductive potential

- If a female of reproductive potential, agrees to remain abstinent from heterosexual
activity or agree to use or have their partner use 2 methods of acceptable
contraception to prevent pregnancy while the participant is receiving study
medication and for 14 days after the last dose of study medication PARTICIPANTS WITH
NORMAL HEPATIC FUNCTION

- Healthy with normal hepatic function PARTICIPANTS WITH HEPATIC IMPAIRMENT

- Satisfy the criteria for Child-Pugh classification [moderate (Part 1): Child-Pugh
Scores 7-9 points, mild (Part 2): Child-Pugh Scores 5-6 points] within 14 days before
administration of study medication

- A diagnosis of hepatic impairment due to primary liver disease and not secondary to
other diseases

- Stable hepatic impairment, defined as no clinically-significant change in disease
status within the last 30 days

- On a stable dose of medication and/or treatment regimen used to manage hepatic
disease for at least 4 weeks prior to study start

Exclusion Criteria:

- ALL PARTICIPANTS

- A transplanted kidney, heart or liver

- Received any of the following medications within 7 days prior to the first dose of
study medication or during the study: Other SGLT2 inhibitors (eg, dapagliflozin,

enzyme-inducing drug, including rifampin, phenytoin, and carbamazepine; Probenecid,
