Exclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria for All Participants:
- Females who are breastfeeding or pregnant at Screening or Baseline
- Females of childbearing potential who did not use a highly effective method of contraception within 28 days before study entry, or who did not agree to use an approved method of contraception from 28 days before study entry, throughout the entire study period, and for 28 days after study drug discontinuation. Approved (highly effective) methods of contraception for this study included at least one of the following: 1. Total abstinence (if it was their preferred and usual lifestyle); 2. An intrauterine device or intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS); 3. A double-barrier method of contraception such as condom plus diaphragm with spermicide; 4. A contraceptive implant; 5. An oral contraceptive (with additional barrier method). Participant must have been on a stable dose of the same oral contraceptive product for at least 28 days before dosing, throughout the study, and for 28 days after study drug discontinuation; 6. Have a vasectomized partner with confirmed azoospermia. (Note: All females will be considered to be of childbearing potential unless they are postmenopausal (amenorrheic for at least 12 consecutive months, in the appropriate age group, and without other known or suspected cause) or have been sterilized surgically (i.e., bilateral tubal ligation, total hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy, all with surgery at least 1 month before dosing).

Additional Exclusion Criteria for Hepatically Impaired Participants (Cohorts A and B):
In addition to the Exclusion Criteria listed above for all participants, other standard exclusion criteria for participants with hepatic impairment will be used. These include:
- Any significant acute medical illness (such as new conditions or exacerbation of pre-existing conditions) within 8 weeks of dosing
- Medical conditions which are not adequately and stably controlled on stable doses of medications or which, in the clinical opinion of the Principal Investigator, may interfere with study procedures or participant safety within 4 weeks before dosing (e.g., psychiatric disorders and disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, kidney, respiratory system, endocrine system, hematological system, neurological system, or cardiovascular system, or participants who have a congenital abnormality in metabolism)
- History of esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding within the past 6 months unless the participant has completed a course of endoscopic therapy with the appropriate documentation (e.g., endoscopy report) of successful ablation of esophageal varices; participants with esophageal varices may be included if not bleeding within the past 6 months or have been treated adequately by ablation therapy, as specified above.
- Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis within 3 months of dosing
- Treatment with plasmapheresis within 6 months of dosing
- Primarily cholestatic liver diseases (e.g., primary biliary cirrhosis or primary sclerosing cholangitis)

- Active alcoholic hepatitis determined either clinically or by histology
- History of hepatoma or metastatic disease of the liver
- Presence of severe ascites or edema
- Presence of hepatopulmonary syndrome or hydrothorax, or hepatorenal syndrome
