Pharmacokinetic (PK) Study of GSK933776 in Healthy Volunteers

NCT02033668 | Completed Phase 1

• 1 other identifier: 116891
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 36
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

This study is intended to enable a possible transition to intramuscular (IM) or subcutaneous (SQ) administration for subsequent studies with GSK933776 by characterizing the safety, tolerability, PK and pharmacodynamic profiles, and immunogenicity of GSK933776 following IM and SQ administration in healthy volunteers. Such alternate routes of administration may provide more options in the selection of an efficacious dose for subsequent development in patients with geographic atrophy. There will be four treatment arms in the study and participants will be assigned to 1 of 4 possible treatment arms in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The planned number of evaluable participants for this study is 24 with 6 participants completing all critical assessments in each of the four treatment arms. The total duration of participation from screening to follow-up for Treatment Arms A, B and D (single dose of GSK933776), will be approximately 113 days and total duration for Treatment Arm C (repeat dose of GSK933776) will be approximately 134 days.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Relative bioavailability of GSK933776 after single dose SQ or IM administration as compared to IV infusion

  Bioavailability is defined as the rate and extent to which drug reaches the systemic circulation. The relative bioavailability will be calculated from the ratio of area under concentration time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC \[0-infinity\]) following single dose SQ and IM injection to intravenous (IV) infusion

  Blood samples will be collected at following time points: pre-dose and at (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4 hours only for IV infusion), 6, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 216, 336, 504, 672, 1344 and 2016 hours post dose

• Relative bioavailability of GSK933776 after repeat dose SQ administration as compared to IV infusion

  Bioavailability is defined as the rate and extent to which drug reaches the systemic circulation. The relative bioavailability will be calculated from the ratio of AUC (0-infinity) following SQ repeat dose injections to intravenous (IV) infusion

  Blood samples will be collected at following time points: pre-dose, 6, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours post dose in each of the 4 dosing weeks and additionally at 216, 336, 504, 672, 1344 and 2016 hours post last dose

Secondary Outcomes (15)

• Composite of PK parameters of GSK933776 following single dose IM and SQ administration as compared to IV administration

  Samples will be collected at following time points: pre-dose and at (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4 hours only for IV infusion), 6, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 216, 336, 504, 672, 1344 and 2016 hours post dose

• Composite of PK parameters of GSK933776 following repeat dose SQ administration as compared to IV administration

  Blood samples will be collected at following time points: pre-dose, 6, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours post dose in each of the 4 dosing weeks and additionally at 216, 336, 504, 672, 1344 and 2016 hours post last dose.

• Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability following single dose administration

  Up to 113 days

• Clinical observation following IV, SQ and IM single dose administration as a measure of safety and tolerability

  Up to 134 days

• Clinical observation following IV, SQ and IM repeat dose administration as a measure of safety and tolerability

  Up to 113 days
