Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED

Brief Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the effect of GSK2339345 relative to placebo on the number of coughs in patients with Chronic Idiopathic Cough (CIC) administered by an Aqueous Droplet Inhaler (ADI). The primary aim is to investigate the efficacy of GSK2339345 on reducing objective cough frequency in CIC patients. The secondary aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of GSK2339345 in inhibiting a hypertussive cough response elicited by capsaicin and citric acid in CIC patients which have a hyperresponsive cough reflex.

Following the screening visit, all eligible subjects will attend the unit for dosing at Visits 1-7. At Visits 1, 2 and 3 (Part A of the study), subjects will receive two doses of either GSK2339345 or placebo, 4 hours apart and will undergo 8 hours of cough monitoring. At Visits 4 and 5 (Part B of the study) and Visits 6 and 7 (Part C of the study), subjects will be administered a single dose of either GSK2339345 or placebo. Subjects will then undergo capsaicin (Part B) or citric acid (Part C) tussive challenge and will undergo cough monitoring for 1 hour post dose.

The maximum study duration will be approximately 11 weeks, including 3 weeks screening and 2 weeks follow-up. Approximately 30 patients will be randomised into the study, such that approximately 24 patients complete dosing and critical assessments.

Study Groups

Part A

Subjects will receive treatment A (placebo) or treatment B (GSK2339345) in 3 visits of part A (one treatment per visit) in one of the following four sequences: ABA, ABB, BAA, and BAB.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

GSK2339345

Intervention Type: DRUG

Clear colorless solution in clear glass vial for oral inhalation via aqueous droplet inhaler with unit dose strength of 1000 microgram (mcg) inhaled in two actuations.

Placebo

Intervention Type: DRUG

Clear colorless solution of 0.9% sodium chloride for oral inhalation via aqueous droplet inhaler inhaled in two actuations.

Part B

Subjects will receive treatment A or treatment B in 2 visits of part B (one treatment per visit) in one of the following two sequences: AB and BA. Subjects will then orally inhale 10 microliter (mcL) of a capsaicin solution of strength ranging from 0.49 micromolar (mcM) to 1000 mcM, which will be administered using a breath activated dosimeter approximately 5 minutes post-dosing with treatment A or B at Visits 4 and 5.

Part C

Subjects will receive treatment A or treatment B in 2 visits of part C (one treatment per visit) in one of the following two sequences: AB and BA. Subjects will then orally inhale 10 mcL of a citric acid solution of strength ranging from 0.03 to 4.0 M, which will be administered using a breath activated dosimeter approximately 5 minutes post-dosing with treatment A or B at Visits 6 and 7.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Chronic Idiopathic Cough patients according to the criteria listed below, determined by a responsible and experienced physician, based on a medical evaluation: Idiopathic cough defined as chronic cough resistant to treatment targeted at potential triggers. Chronic cough defined as cough lasting for more than 8 weeks.
• A patient with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameters outside the reference range for the population being studied may be included only if the Investigator and the GSK Medical Monitor agree that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures.
• Male/females aged >=18 years old, at the time of signing the informed consent.
• Non-smoker for at least 6 months with a cumulative history of <= 10 pack years. Pack years = (No. of cigarettes smoked/day/20) x (No. of years smoked).
• Body weight >= 50 kilograms.
• A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of; Non-childbearing potential defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy [for this definition, "documented" refers to the outcome of the investigator's/designee's review of the subject's medical history for study eligibility, as obtained via a verbal interview with the subject or from the subject's medical records]; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone > 40 milli international unit/milliliter (mL) and estradiol < 40 picogram/ml (<147 picomoles/Liter [L]) is confirmatory]. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the 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 enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2 to4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method.

Child-bearing potential with negative pregnancy test as determined by serum human chorionic gonadotropin test at screening or prior to dosing and Agrees to use one of the contraception methods for an appropriate period of time (as determined by the product label or investigator) prior to the start of dosing to sufficiently minimize the risk of pregnancy at that point. Female subjects must agree to use contraception until the follow up visit or has only same-sex partners, when this is her preferred and usual lifestyle.

• Male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the contraception methods. This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until the follow up visit.
• Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.
• Aspartate amino transferase and alanine amino transferase < 2xupper limit of normal (ULN); alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin <= 1.5xULN (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%).
• Based on averaged QT interval corrected (QTc) values of triplicate electrocardiograms (ECGs) obtained over a brief recording period: QTc using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) < 450 millisecond.
• A 24 hour Holter ECG at screening that demonstrates no clinically significant abnormalities or finding that could interfere with interpretation of the study results, when assessed by an appropriately trained and experienced reviewer.

• Any subject who does not reach C5 following an oral inhalation of capsaicin at a dose level of 250 micromolar at screening.
