Single and Repeated Dose Escalation Study of GSK2838232

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2016-12-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

GSK2838232 is a Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) maturation inhibitor being developed for the treatment of HIV in combination with other antiretroviral therapy (ART). The primary objectives of this study are to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and repeat doses of GSK2838232. This study will be a double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and repeat dose escalation study. This study will be conducted in two Parts: single escalating doses (Part 1A and 1B), and repeated escalating once daily (QD) doses for 11 days (Part 2) of GSK2838232 co-dosed with RTV. During Part 1A, single doses of GSK2838232 (as of active pharmaceutical ingredient-powder in bottle [API PiB]) 50 milligrams (mg), 100mg and 200mg will be administered with RTV. Part 1B will evaluate the relative bioavailability of single doses of crystalline active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) Immediate Release Tablet (IR) tablets versus API PiB as reference, administered with RTV. In Part 2, multiple doses of GSK2838232 will be co-administered with RTV 100mg QD for 11 days as sequential dose cohorts. Maximum duration of study participation will be approximately 10 weeks.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Age: Between 18 and 55 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.

• Healthy as determined by the Investigator or medically qualified designee based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests and cardiac monitoring.

• A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameter(s) which is/are not specifically listed in the inclusion or exclusion criteria, and outside the reference range for the population being studied, may be included only if the Investigator in consultation with the Medical Monitor, if required, agree and document that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures

• A creatinine clearance (CLcr) >80milliliter/minute (mL/min) as determined by Cockcroft-Gault equation CLcr (mL/min) = (140 - age) * weight (Wt) / (72 * serum creatinine [Scr]) (times 0.85 if female) where age is in years, Wt is in kilogram (kg), and Scr is in units of milligram / decilitre (mg/dL);.

• Body weight >= 50.0 kg (110 pounds [lbs.]) for men and >= 45.0kg (99lbs) for women and body mass index (BMI)

• Male or females of non-reproductive potential:

A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant [as confirmed by a negative serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) test], not lactating, and of non-reproductive potential which is defined as:

Pre-menopausal females with one of the following: Documented tubal ligation; Documented hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion ; Hysterectomy; Documented Bilateral Oophorectomy Post menopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol levels consistent with menopause (refer to laboratory reference ranges for confirmatory levels)]. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the highly effective contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrolment.

Male subjects with female partners of child bearing potential must comply with the following contraception requirements from the time of first dose of study medication until one week after the last dose of study medication.

Vasectomy with documentation of azoospermia, or Male condom plus partner use of one of the contraceptive options following: Contraceptive subdermal implant that meets the standard operating procedure (SOP) effectiveness criteria including a <1% rate of failure per year, as stated in the product label; Intrauterine device or intrauterine system that meets the SOP effectiveness criteria including a <1% rate of failure per year, as stated in the product label; Oral Contraceptive, either combined or progestogen alone. Injectable progestogen; Contraceptive vaginal ring; Percutaneous contraceptive patches.

These allowed methods of contraception are only effective when used consistently, correctly and in accordance with the product label. The Investigator is responsible for ensuring that subjects understand how to properly use these methods of contraception.

• Capable of giving signed informed consent as described in Study protocol which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form and in protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Alanine aminotransferase and bilirubin >1.0* upper limit of normal (ULN).

• Current or chronic history of liver disease, or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities.

• Subjects who have asthma or a history of asthma.

• Medical history of cardiac arrhythmias or cardiac disease or a family and personal history of long QT syndrome

• Unable to refrain from the use of prescription or non-prescription drugs, including vitamins, herbal and dietary supplements (including St John's Wort) within 7 days (or 14 days if the drug is a potential enzyme inducer) or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study medication, unless in the opinion of the Investigator and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Medical Monitor, the medication will not interfere with the study procedures or compromise subject safety

• History of regular alcohol consumption within 6 months of the study defined as: For US sites: an average weekly intake of >14 drinks for males or >7 drinks for females. One drink is equivalent to 12 grams (g) of alcohol: 12 ounces (360 mL) of beer, 5 ounces (150mL) of wine or 1.5 ounces (45mL) of 80 proof distilled spirits.

• Regular use of tobacco- or nicotine-containing products within 6 months prior to screening.

• History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation

• Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or positive hepatitis C antibody test result at screening or within 3 months prior to first dose of study treatment.

• Screening or baseline cardiac troponin I greater than the 99% cut-off (>.045 nanograms/mL by the Dimension Vista Cardiac troponin assay) for a given assay.

• A positive pre-study drug/alcohol screen.

• A positive test for HIV antibody.

• The subject has participated in a clinical trial and has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 30 days, 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer).

• Exposure to more than four new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.

• Exclusion Criteria for 48-Hour Screening Holter:

Any symptomatic arrhythmia (except isolated extra systoles). Sustained cardiac arrhythmias (such as atrial fibrillation or flutter, supraventricular tachycardia (>=10 consecutive beats), complete heart block).

Non-sustained or sustained ventricular tachycardia (defined as >= 3 consecutive ventricular ectopic beats).
