A Safety Study of GSK3039294 in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Systemic Amyloidosis

GSK3039294 has been developed in order to offer an orally available alternative to parenteral CPHPC (GSK2315698 \[metabolite of GSK3039294\]) for plasma serum amyloid P component (SAP) depletion prior to use of anti SAP monoclonal antibody (mAb) in the treatment of systemic amyloidosis. This phase 1 study is intended to study safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of GSK3039294 in humans. This study consists of three parts. Part A will evaluate safety and tolerability of single doses of GSK3039294 in healthy subjects, Part B will evaluate safety and tolerability of repeat doses of GSK3039294 in healthy subjects, and Part C will evaluate safety and tolerability of repeat doses of GSK3039294 in subjects with systemic amyloidosis. Part A is a single dose, open label, dose escalation study. Two cohorts of subjects will be enrolled to provide data from 6 subjects per cohort and up to 4 different doses (2 dose levels per cohort) of GSK3039294 will be tested. For Cohorts 1 and 2, each subject may take part in two dosing periods. Part B is repeat dose, open label, dose escalation study. Sufficient number of subjects will be enrolled in Cohort 3a to ensure 6 completers (Cohort 3b will be conducted if required) and GSK3039294 will be administered repeatedly for a total of 21 days. Each subject will take part in a single study period. In Part C a single dose level of GSK3039294 will be tested for 21 days repeat dose, in 12 subjects with systemic amyloidosis. Each subject will take part in a single study period. The total duration for Part A is approximately 8 weeks, Part B is approximately 8-9 weeks, and Part C is approximately 13 weeks.
