Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional
Primary purpose: Treatment
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention model: Crossover Assignment
Intervention model description: Study will comprise of four TPs, each of at least 7 days in duration with subjects in-house for 4 nights (through 72 hours after the first dose). During each TP, subjects will be admitted to the unit, day before dosing and will be discharged after completion of 72 hours post-dose assessments. dose will be administered TID, in an ascending manner. Every individual subject will receive placebo and GSK2982772 (60, 120,240 mg TID) as per assigned sequence. For TID dosing, GSK2982772 or placebo will be administered at 0 hour (the first dosing), 7 hour (the second dosing) and 14 hour (the third dosing) on Day 1 in each period. On Day 1, subjects will fast 8hour overnight prior to first dose. breakfast will be served approximately 2hour after first dose. Lunch and dinner will be served between 2 to 3hour prior to second and third doses, respectively. A washout of atleast 7-days between the TP doses for each individual subject.
Masking: Triple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator)
Masking description: It is a double-blinded study, where the subjects, investigators and the site-staff will be blinded.

Summary:

      The study plans to enroll approximately 12 subjects. The main objective of the study is to
      assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of the three times a day (TID),
      dosing of GSK2982772, in Japanese healthy male subjects. The study will comprise of four
      study periods each at least 7 days in duration with subjects in-house for 4 nights (through
      72 hrs after the first dose). During each treatment period (TP), subjects will be admitted to
      the unit the day before dosing and will be discharged after completion of the 72 hours
      post-dose assessments. There will be a washout of atleast 7-days between the TP doses for
      each individual, post which there will be 7-days follow-up. The dose range proposed in this
      study is based on a low starting dose, which will be escalated to the highest dose that is
      intended for the Phase 2b dose range study. The decision to proceed to the next dose-level,
      of GSK2982772 within the study will be made by principal investigator and GSK Medical Monitor
      per each dosing periods. The study duration is approximately 22 weeks.
    

Eligibility criteria:
