The goals of this study are to compare the amount of study drug, bulevirtide (BLV), that gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes for the body to eliminate it, measure the effect of BLV on bile acids, and evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of BLV in participants with normal or impaired renal (kidney) function.

Participant Groups
2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Group A: Bulevirtide (BLV), Severe Renal Impaired ParticipantsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with severe renal impairment will receive BLV 2 mg once daily for 6 days.
Following completion and evaluation of pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety data from all participants in Group A, additional participant groups (Groups B, C, and D) and BLV doses (2 mg or 10 mg) may be initiated.
Group II: Group A: BLV, Normal Renal Function (Matched Control Participants)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with normal renal function will receive BLV 2 mg once daily for 6 days.
