Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 45 years

Who may be able to join

  • Male between 18 and 45 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • Healthy as determined by a responsible and experienced physician, based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests and cardiac monitoring. A subject 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.

  • QTcF < 450 msec.
  • Male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the contraception methods listed in the protocol. This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until 1 month post-last dose of GSK239512.
  • Body weight > 50 kg, and body mass index (BMI) between 19.0 - 29.9 kg/m2 inclusive.
  • Capable of giving informed consent and can comply with the study requirements and timetable.

Who cannot join

  • A positive pre-study Hepatitis B surface antigen or positive Hepatitis C antibody result within 3 months of screening
  • Current or chronic history of liver disease, or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones).
  • A positive pre-study drug/alcohol screen.
  • A positive test for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) antibody.

  • History of smoking cigarettes or using tobacco products or any nicotine-containing products (including nicotine patches) within 3 months of screening.
Show all 29Show fewer
  • The subject has participated in a clinical trial and has received an investigational product within 30 days or 5 half lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dosing day in the current study.
  • Exposure to more than four new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.
  • 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 GSK Medical Monitor the medication will not interfere with the study procedures or compromise subject safety.
  • History of sensitivity to ketoconazole, or to the excipients contained in GSK239512 or Nizoral, or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.

  • Any other medicines that are contraindications of Nizoral (see Appendix 4).
  • Unable to refrain from consumption of red wine, seville oranges, grapefruit or grapefruit juice from 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication.
  • The subject has a history of significant psychiatric illness.
  • Presence or history of hallucinations that, in the judgement of the investigator, may increase the safety risk to the subject.
  • At risk of suicide, as indicated by:
  • A documented history of attempted suicide or significant suicidal ideation during the 6 months preceding the screening visit, OR
  • If in the investigator's judgment the subject is at risk of a suicide attempt based on the screen visit assessment, including the C-SSRS.
  • Diagnosis of any type epilepsy
  • Night shift workers within 4 weeks of first dosing
  • Presence of significant and routine sleep disturbance that has a negative impact on quality of life that, in the judgement of the investigator, may increase the risk of tolerability issues during dose escalation.
  • Examples of significant sleep disturbances may be: severe insomnia, nocturnal wandering, confusion, disorientation, agitation, or vivid dreams.

About this study

Official title: An Open Label Study in Healthy Volunteers to Investigate the Effect of Ketoconazole on the Pharmacokinetics of GSK239512

The study will determine the effect of 400 mg once daily of ketoconazole at steady state on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of GSK239512 in young healthy volunteers. Ketoconazole is a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4, which is involved in metabolism of drugs. A two-cohort design will be applied with cohort 1 aimed at providing a first estimate of the interaction potential of GSK239512 and ketoconazole in terms of pharmacokinetic parameters in a small number of subjects. Data from Cohort 1 will inform the decision of which dose to use in Cohort 2, in which a larger number of subjects will be exposed to GSK239512 without and with ketoconazole. The target maximum exposure is aimed to be similar to the exposure by a single dose of 80 mcg of GSK239512 without CYP3A4 inhibition. In summary, the results from this study will help to estimate the maximum increase in exposure of GSK239512 during concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and will help define the subsequent dosing strategy around GSK239512 and co-medications with potential to inhibit CYP3A4.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GSK239512 and ketoconazole in people with Multiple Sclerosis, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Australia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 29 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Australia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

AUC of GSK239512 (time frame: Predose and up to 120 hour post dose of GSK239512). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jul 2017.
