Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Group A- Eligible subjects (Non-smoking males and non-pregnant/non-lactating female subjects with body mass index (BMI) from 18 to 38 kg/m^2; ages 18-70 years inclusive with severe renal impairment (based on estimated glomerular filtration rate by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [eGFR_{MDRD}] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m^2) at screening without clinical and/or laboratory evidence for worsening renal impairment within the screening period ) will be enrolled and will receive the following treatments:
*Single dose of GS-0976 20 mg (1 x 20 mg tablet) administered orally in the morning on Day 1 in fasted state
*Single dose of GS-9674 placebo-to-match (PTM) administered orally in the morning on Day 6 in fasted state
*Single dose of GS-9674 100 mg (1 x 100 mg tablet) administered orally in the morning on Day 7 in fasted state

During each treatment the corresponding drug (or PTM) will be administered at approximately the same time in the morning on Day 1 (GS-0976), Day 6 (GS-9674 PTM), and Day 7 (GS-9674) with 240 mL of water following an overnight fast (no food or drinks except water) for at least 10 hours. Following dosing, subjects will be restricted from food intake until after collection of the 4-hour blood draw. Other than the water provided with dosing, water and other fluids will be withheld for 1 hour before and until 2 hours after dose administration. Water may be freely consumed by all subjects following the 2-hour blood draw for the remainder of the collection period. A meal will be provided to subjects after the 4 hour post dose blood draw.
All meals and/or snacks given to subjects during their stay in the clinical study facility will be standardized for all subjects and should be similar in calorie and fat content per site practice and taken at approximately the same time each day.

Subjects will be confined to the study clinic starting at on Day -1 until completion of assessments on Day 11 or Day 20 per Investigator’s discretion to ensure compliance and for safety observation.

The investigator will maintain an accurate inventory of all study drug(s). Each dose of the study drug(s) administered at the study center will be administered by qualified study center staff. The dose of study drug(s) administered to subjects in the clinic under the supervision of staff, which indicates the date and quantity of each dosage formulation dispensed to individual subjects. Where possible, IMP should be destroyed at the site. If the site has an appropriate standard operating procedure for drug destruction as determined by Gilead Sciences, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and/or unused IMP supplies. If the site does not have acceptable procedures in place for drug destruction,study drug supplies can be returned to the designated depot following drug accountability and drug inventory reconciliation.

Pharmacokinetics
Statistical methods / analysis
1) Pharmacokinetics:
Plasma concentrations and PK parameters for each analyte will be listed and summarized using descriptive statistics by renal function group.
In addition, an analysis of variance (ANOVA) model with renal function group as a fixed effect will be fitted to the natural logarithmic transformation of PK parameters (area under the concentration versus time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC_{last}), area under the concentration versus time curve extrapolated to infinite time (AUC_{inf}), maximum observed concentration of drug (C_{max})) for each analyte. Two-sided 90% confidence intervals (CIs) will be calculated for the ratios of the geometric least-squares means (GLSM) of PK parameters for GS-9674, GS-0976 and their metabolites between severe renal impairment group and the control (normal renal function) group.
If determined, PK urine concentrations and parameters for each analyte will be listed by subject and summarized by renal function group using descriptive statistics.

2) Pharmacodynamics:
PD data may be listed and summarized using descriptive statistics by renal function.

3) Sample Size:
With 16 (8 per group) evaluable subjects, the estimated two-sided 90% CI of the GLSM ratio of severe renal impairment group vs control (normal renal function), with regards to AUC_{last}, AUC_{inf} and C_{max} of GS-9674 and GS-0976 would be within [0, 2] with greater than or equal to 99% probability for GS-9674, and greater than or equal to 73% probability for GS-0976, if the estimated GLSM ratio were 1.0. This is assuming a standard deviation (SD) of no more than 0.27 and 0.58 on a natural logarithm scale for GS-9674 and GS-0976 respectively. These are supported by previous Gilead studies GS-US-454-4315 and GS-US-426-3987. With 25% overage, a total sample size of 20 subjects (10 per group) will be required.
