Brief Summary

This study is the first administration of GSK2982772 in humans. The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and exploratory pharmacodynamics (PD) of single and repeat oral doses of up to 14 days with GSK2982772 in healthy male subjects.

This study is planned to include approximately 52 subjects and will consist of 2 parts: Part A - single ascending dose, randomized, placebo controlled, 4 way crossover. In addition to the crossover treatment periods, up to 8 subjects in cohort 2 will participate in an additional treatment period and receive GSK2982772 with a high-fat meal. Part B - repeat dose, randomized, placebo controlled, sequential-group. In both cohorts of Part A (Cohorts 1 and 2), subjects will be randomized equally (1:1:1:1) to one of 4 treatment sequences. Within each period, allocation of active to placebo treatment will be 3:1.

In all cohorts in Part B (Cohorts 3, 4 and 5) subjects will be randomized to GSK2982772 or placebo in a 3:1 ratio. If required, subjects in the additional cohorts in Part A (Cohort 6) and Part B (Cohort 7) will be randomized to GSK2982772 or placebo in a 1:1:1:1 and 3:1 ratio, respectively. The study duration, including screening and follow-up, is not expected to exceed 105 days for any subject in the study.

Study Groups

Cohort 1: GSK2982772 Single Ascending Dose (Part A) (0.1-10mg)

Eight subjects will be randomized equally (1:1:1:1) to one of the 4 placebo-controlled dose sequences with 2 subjects in each sequence and each subject having four dose periods (3 active dose of GSK2982772 + 1 placebo dose). The subjects will fast overnight from Day -1 to Day 1 of the treatment period. Two of the 8 subjects will be randomized to the dosing on Day 1 as sentinel dosing. Assuming adequate safety in the judgment of the Principal Investigator (e.g., vital signs, ECGs, and adverse events) through approximately 24 hours; the remaining 6 subjects may be randomized to dosing on the following day. Subjects will receive single planned doses of GSK2982772 as 0.1, 0.5, 2.5, and 10mg. A sequential design will be used including approximately weekly dose escalations while allowing for a sufficient washout period. The proposed doses may be adjusted based on emerging safety and PK

Cohort 2: GSK2982772 Single Ascending Dose (Part A) (40-240mg)

The subjects will fast overnight from Day -1 to Day 1 of the treatment period. Two of the 8 subjects will be randomized to the dosing on Day 1 as sentinel dosing. Assuming adequate safety in the judgment of the Principal Investigator (e.g., vital signs, ECGs, and adverse events) through 24 hours; the remaining 6 subjects may be randomized to dosing on the following day. Subjects will receive single planned doses of GSK2982772 as 40, 100, 180, and 240 mg. A sequential design with weekly dose escalations and sufficient washout period will be used. The proposed doses may be adjusted based on emerging safety and PK. After the completion of the fasted treatment periods, subjects will receive a high fat meal within 30 minutes of dosing with GSK2982772 during a final treatment period.
