Brief Summary

Absorption, metabolism and excretion of daprodustat (GSK1278863) have been studied in previous clinical trials; however, the elimination routes and metabolic pathways of daprodustat have not been fully elucidated in humans. This is an open-label, single-center, non-randomized, 2-period, single-sequence, crossover, mass balance study in 6 healthy male participants. The aim of the study is to assess the excretion balance of daprodustat using \[14C\]-radiolabeled drug substance administered orally, and as an intravenous (IV) infusion, administered as a microtracer dose (concomitant with an oral, non-radiolabeled dose). Absolute bioavailability of an oral dose will also be assessed. Each participant will be involved in the study for up to 10 weeks which include a screening visit, two treatment periods (treatment periods 1 and 2), separated by about 7 days (at least 14 days between oral doses), and a follow up visit 1-2 weeks after the last assessment in treatment period 2. The primary objective of the study is to gain a better understanding of the compound's excretory and metabolic profile. This study will include sampling of duodenal bile to conduct qualitative assessment of drug metabolites in this matrix in order to characterize biliary elimination pathways.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (17)

  • Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero (Pre-dose) Extrapolated to Infinite Time (AUC [0-Inf]) of Total Drug-related Material (Radioactivity) in Plasma Following Administration of GSK1278863

    Plasma samples were collected from participants at indicated time points in each of the treatment period 1 and 2, after administration of study treatment to investigate the pharmacokinetics of GSK1278863 in plasma. Pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted using standard non-compartmental methods. Pharmacokinetic Population comprised of all participants in the Safety Population who had at least 1 non-missing pharmacokinetic assessment (Non-quantifiable \[NQ\] values were considered as non-missing values).

    Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 hours post-dose in treatment period 1; Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 hours post-dose in treatment period 2

  • AUC (0-Inf) of Total Drug-related Material (Radioactivity) in Blood Following Administration of GSK1278863

    Blood samples were planned to be collected from participants at indicated time points in each of the treatment period 1 and 2, after administration of study treatment to investigate the pharmacokinetics of GSK1278863 in blood. Data were not collected for blood total radioactivity concentration following administration of radiolabeled IV dose of GSK1278863 because of an error (deviation). The deviation is due to a processing error: labels for whole blood draws, and aliquots for shipment were not generated in error. Data were not analyzed for radiolabeled oral dose of GSK1278863 as there were not enough data points captured for a terminal slope required to calculate AUC (0-inf). The blood assay could not detect radiation levels at the time points blood was drawn to go into these calculations.
