Investigating The Pharmacokinetics Of An Inhaled Dose Of A New Corticosteroid In Patients With Impaired Liver Function

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Asthma
Interventions
Drug: GW685698X
Registration Number
NCT00419237
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

The proposed study is designed to investigate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics (as measured by serum cortisol) and safety of GW685698X in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment and in healthy subjects following a single oral inhaled dose of GW685698X. From the study results it should be possible to assess if there is an altered Risk: Benefit in patients with moderate hepatic impairment

GroupInterventionDescription
Healthy subjectsGW685698XSubjects with normal liver function test will be administered a single oral inhaled dose of 400 micrograms (mcg) GW685698X in the morning of the study day. Each healthy subject will be matched as closely as possible for age, gender, bodyweight and race to a subject with impaired liver function.
Subjects with hepatic impairmentGW685698XSubjects with Child Pugh B hepatic dysfunction will be administered a single oral inhaled dose of 400 mcg GW685698X in the morning of the study day.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To investigate how impaired liver function affects the movement of single dose inhaled drug GW685698X within the body. Blood exposure levels in patients and matched control patients compared by taking blood samples after dosingUp to Day 13
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Effect of GW685698X on serum cortisol by calculating weighted mean in blood over 24 hrs. Safety and tolerability of GW685698X in patients with impaired liver function from blood samples during dosing (clearance/distribution) and monitoring vital signsUp to Day 13
