Brief summary:
This is an open-label, single-center, single dose, non-randomized, sequential, fixed-sequence study, which will evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of dolutegravir (DTG) in healthy adult subjects. The study will contain 6 periods with five prototype liquid formulations for evaluation in fasted state. In period 1, 2 and 3 single reference dose of 2 dispersible tablets of 5 milligram DTG will be administered and at least 2 liquid prototype DTG formulations (containing a target total dose of 10mg DTG). There will be a wash-out period of 7 days between each period. In period 4 through 6, there would be options to evaluate additional prototype liquid formulations. The total duration of study will be up to 17 weeks. DTG has been found to be safe and effective in adults infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). DTG dispersible tablets have been developed primarily for use in children from 4 weeks to 6 years of age, and a DTG liquid formulation are is being developed to study the appropriate dose needed for the HIV-exposed and infected neonatal population in the first four weeks of life. Approximately 18 subjects will be enrolled in this study.

Detailed description:

Arms:
arm 1: Subject will receive a prototype equivalent to DTG 10 mg liquid formulation in period 1, a prototype equivalent to DTG 10 mg liquid formulation in period 2, a DTG 10 mg dispersible tablet in Period 3, each period will be separated by washout period of \>= 7 days, if required a prototype equivalent to DTG 10 mg liquid formulation in period 4, a prototype equivalent to DTG 10 mg liquid formulation in period 5, and a prototype equivalent to DTG 10 mg liquid formulation in period 6 will be evaluated.

Interventions: intervention 1: Dolutegravir dispersible tablet intervention 2: Dolutegravir oral suspension intervention 3: Dolutegravir oral solution
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: DTG will be available as an oral tablet with dosing strength of 5 mg 2 tablet will be dispersed in water will be administered orally for prescribed regimen. intervention 2: DTG will be available as an oral suspension with dosing strength of 5 mg per milliliter (ml) or 2 mg per ml with miglyol 812N or ethyl cellulose in miglyol 812N as vehicle for suspension administered orally for prescribed regimen. intervention 3: DTG will be available as an oral solution with dosing strength of 2 mg per ml will be administered orally for prescribed regimen.

Amendment 01 27-February-2019
Overall Rationale for the Amendment: The original protocol was written assuming that
a greater number of prototype formulations would possibly have been tested in the study.  
Pre-clinical testing yielded only 2 prototypes suitable to take forward clinically.  This 
amendment clarifies the study design for only 2 test formulations.
The US IND number was removed from the cover page as this study will be conducted in 
the UK.
Some additional copy changes may have been made to text (e.g., Table 3, changed 
formulation from 1 and 2, to A and B).  These were administrative change not affecting 
participants.

formulations, including, 
but not limited to, the 
removal of a need for 
interim dosing reviews 
as these will no longer 
be necessary.
Pre-clinical testing yielded only 2 
prototypes suitable to take forward 
clinically into this study.  These changes 
reflect the reduction in study design from 
up to 5 to only 2 test formulations.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability of two
prototype liquid formulations containing 10 mg equivalent DTG in healthy adult 
participants versus single doses of 2 x 5 mg dispersible tablets dispersed in water.
2.1.
Study Rationale
Dolutegravir (DTG) has been shown to be safe and effective in adults who are infected 
with HIV.  Dosage forms for paediatric patients are in development and under 
investigation for safety and efficacy.  This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, via 
relative bioavailability, of single dose prototype liquid formulations containing 10 mg 
equivalent DTG compared to 5mg dispersible DTG tablets dispersed in water.  These 
DTG liquid formulations are being developed to support future efficacy and safety 
studies for the treatment of HIV-infected new-borns of up to approximately 6 weeks of 
age.
2.2.
Background
The safety and efficacy of DTG (TIVICAY) is already established in adults.  For younger 
children aged 4 weeks to <12 years of age, the evaluation of once daily dosing of DTG 
will be supported by data from paediatric efficacy and safety studies of DTG alone and in 
combination with 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs; lamivudine and 
abacavir) and current labelling for the individual components of the FDC in paediatric 
patients.  It is the Sponsor’s intention to develop both a dispersible tablet (DT) paediatric 
formulation of DTG and a liquid formulation of DTG that would optimize the dose 
through achieving drug exposures similar to that of approved adult formulations. Under 
the assumption that these paediatric formulations are feasible, the DTG PK data from this 
study in healthy adult participants will be compared to drug exposures obtained 
historically in adults receiving DTG at approved/recommended paediatric and adult 
doses.  Such data will be used to determine the final composition and weight band-based 
doses of the FDC product to be used in paediatric populations.  More information on the 
efficacy, PK, safety and drug interaction potential of DTG based on an extensive program

of Phase I to III clinical trials can be found in the Investigator Brochure (IB) and 
supplement [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number RM2007/00683/11 and 
GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2017N352880_00).
2.3.
Benefit/Risk Assessment
More detailed information about the known and expected benefits and risks and 
reasonably expected adverse events of DTG may be found in the Investigator’s Brochure 
[GlaxoSmithKline Document Number RM2007/00683/11] and Supplement to DTG 
Investigator’s Brochure [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2017N352880_00].  The 
following section outlines the risk assessment and mitigation strategy for this protocol.  
Of note, the events noted in the table below were observed with the repeated doses of 
DTG at 50 mg.  The risk of these events would be significantly lower for the single doses 
(2 x 5 mg dispersible tablets dispersed in water) being used in this protocol.

Hypersensitivity reaction 
(HSR) and rash
HSR has been observed uncommonly with DTG.  Rash was commonly reported 
in DTG Phase IIb/III clinical trials; episodes were generally mild to moderate in 
intensity; no episodes of severe rash, such as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome 
(SJS), Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) and erythema multiforme were 
reported.

Participants with history of allergy/sensitivity to any of the 
study drugs are excluded (Section 5.2)

Specific/detailed toxicity management guidance is provided 
for HSR and rash (Section 11.6).

For Grade 3/4 rash, participants must permanently 
discontinue study drug and be withdrawn from the study 
(Section 7.1)

The participant informed consent form includes information on 
this risk and the actions participants should take in the event 
of an HSR or associated signs and symptoms. 
Neural tube defects
In one observational study in Botswana, preliminary results show that among 
women who were taking DTG when they became pregnant, approximately 0.9% 
had babies with neural tube defects compared to a background rate of 0.1%.
Women of childbearing potential cannot participate in the study.
Drug induced liver injury 
(DILI) and other clinically 
significant liver chemistry 
elevations
Non-clinical data suggested a possible, albeit low, risk for hepatobiliary toxicity 
with DTG.  Drug-related hepatitis is considered an uncommon risk for 
antiretroviral therapy (ART) containing DTG regardless of dose or treatment 
population.  A review of post-marketing data found that the number of cases 
reporting particularly severe liver dysfunction was found to be very low in the 
context of exposure to DTG and DTG/ABC/3TC. The reported cases of severe 
liver dysfunction (including acute hepatic failure) are complex with potential 
confounding factors but in a very small number of cases, drug-induced liver 
injury is likely and the role of DTG containing regimens cannot be ruled out 
particularly in those involving DTG with ABC/3TC or DTG/ABC/3TC.
Participants meeting either of the following criteria during the 
screening period are excluded (Section 5.2).

Current or chronic history of liver disease or known hepatic or 
biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome 
or asymptomatic gallstones).

Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) or bilirubin >1.5x upper limit 
of normal (ULN).
Specific/detailed liver stopping criteria and toxicity management 
guidance is provided for suspected DILI or other clinically 
significant liver chemistry elevations (Section 11.6, Appendix 6).

Potential Risk of 
Clinical Significance
Data/Rationale for Risk
Mitigation Strategya
Investigational Product (IP) [DTG]
Refer to IB and IB Supplement for additional information
Renal function
Mild elevations of creatinine have been observed with DTG which are related to 
a likely benign effect on creatinine secretion with blockade of organic cation 
transporter 2 (OCT-2).  DTG has been shown to have no significant effect on 
glomerular filtration rate (GFR) or effective renal plasma flow.
Increases in serum creatinine due to DTG are not expected to 
have any adverse effect and will reverse during the wash out 
period after each single dosing of DTG, and; therefore, do not 
require mitigation for this protocol. 
Risks Associated with Study Procedures
Cannulation
During cannulation more than one attempt may be needed to insert the cannula 
in a vein of a participant and it is possible that bruising and/or inflammation may 
be experienced at the site of cannulation.

A vein assessment will be conducted at screening to ensure 
only volunteers with veins suitable for multiple venepuncture 
and cannulation are enrolled.

Cannulation and/or venepuncture will only be performed by 
staff who are trained in these procedures
ECG Collection
Electrocardiogram stickers on the participants’ chests and limbs may cause 
some local irritation and may be uncomfortable to remove.

Participants will be monitored to ensure any local irritation 
does not persist.

Up to 2.5% hydrocortisone cream is permitted to relieve 
irritation from ECG leads.
a.
Careful monitoring of events will be conducted using serious adverse event (SAE) reports and alerts for Grade 3/4 laboratory toxicities (per Division of Acquired Immune 
Deficiency Syndrome [DAIDS] toxicity grading for HIV-infected patients). Serious/severe events will be managed appropriately including, but not limited to, withdrawal of 
investigational product (IP), and will be followed to resolution as per Sponsor’s standard medical monitoring practices.

Benefit Assessment
This is a study in healthy participants and as such there is no expected benefit to 
administration of DTG.  Participation in this study may contribute to the process of 
developing new therapies for HIV.  There may be benefit to participants from the medical 
evaluations and assessments that could identify conditions that the participant was 
previously unaware.
2.3.3.
Overall Benefit: Risk Conclusion
Taking into account the measures taken to minimize risk to participants in this study, the 
potential risks identified in association with DTG are justified by the anticipated benefits 
that may be afforded to paediatric patients with HIV.  The events noted in Section 2.3.1
were observed with the repeated doses of DTG.  The risk of these events would be 
significantly lower for the single doses being used in this protocol.

STUDY DESIGN
4.1.
Overall Design
This is an open-label, single-centre, single dose study in healthy adult participates to 
assess prototype liquid formulations with 2 x 5mg DTG Dispersible tablet as reference.  
The study is a non-randomized 3-period, sequential, 3-way fixed-sequence design in 
which 2 prototype liquid formulations will be evaluated following single-dose 
administrations in the fasted state.  Periods 1, 2 and 3 will evaluate a single reference 
dose (2 x 5mg dispersible DTG tablet dispersed in water) and 2 liquid prototype DTG 
formulations (containing a target total dose of 10mg DTG).  
Participants will be admitted to the clinic the morning before dosing (i.e. Day -1) of each 
inpatient period. Each inpatient period will consist of 48 hours of post-dose assessments.  


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
17
There will be one outpatient visit per Period for PK assessment at approximately 72 hours 
post dose. This will be followed by a washout of at least 7 (-4 hours) days between doses 
of study medication. The total length of study participation may be up to 8 weeks 
including screening, 3 dosing sessions, and follow-up.  The follow-up visit will occur 7 to 
14 days after the last dose of study drug. Participants will receive a single oral dose of
study treatment during each inpatient period.  At Follow-up, participants with no ongoing 
adverse events (AEs) or Vital Sign/Laboratory measures of clinical concern may be 
followed virtually by the site via telephone contact.
Note:  The -4 hours is an allowed tolerance window to the 7-day washout and is to enable
the study site and participants flexibility in scheduling admission and dosing for 
subsequent dosing periods (i.e., treatment periods 2 and/or 3).
4.2.
Formulation Decision
Following the Dosing Periods, a preliminary data review will be conducted.  The 
preliminary review will utilize data from Dosing Periods 1, 2, and 3 (i.e., single reference 
dose and 2 liquid prototype DTG formulations).  For the preliminary formulation 
decision, data must be available from a minimum of 16 participants who have completed 
the planned safety and PK assessments up to 72 hours after dosing.  An evaluable 
participant must also have received the relevant prototype and reference formulation(s)
for the comparisons of interest (e.g., a prototype formulation(s) and the reference).  If full 
data, as described below, are not available for 16 participants, the principal investigator 
(PI), scientific lead and Sponsor will take a decision as to whether the data available are 
sufficient to support the formulation selection decision.  If data in fewer than 16
participants are used in the decision process, additional participants will not be dosed to 
increase the number of participants in the completed regimen.
The following data will be available to the Sponsor and the site:
•
Plasma concentrations of DTG.
•
Nominal time PK parameter estimates of DTG AUC(0-), AUC(0-t), AUC(0-24), tmax, 
Cmax and t1/2.
In evaluating a prototype formulation for success, the Sponsor and the site will consider 
the above listed data within the context of the geometric mean ratios (GMR) and 90% CIs 
for DTG (see Table 4 in Section 9.2.2).  If the nominal time PK estimates for a prototype 
fall within the GMR and 90% CI limits defined in Section 9.2.2. 
The decision on formulation selection will be made by the site’s study team (i.e., PI, 
scientific lead and pharmacokineticist) and Sponsor study team (at a minimum the 
Sponsor’s Medical Monitor, Clinical Pharmacokinetics Modelling and Simulation 
[CPMS] and Medicinal Product Development Lead).  The decision will be documented 
and signed by the PI as per the site’s current standard operating procedure.  Evidence of 
the decision will be retained in the Investigator Site File and GSK Trial Master File.

4.3.
Scientific Rationale for Study Design
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that infects primarily cluster of 
differentiation 4 (CD4) + T lymphocytes where it establishes latency. HIV-1 infection is 
associated with a progressive decrease in CD4+ T lymphocytes and an increase in viral 
load resulting in the destruction of the immune system and leading to the acquired 
immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) defined by the presence of one or more 
opportunistic infections. In the absence of treatment, HIV/AIDS is associated with 
serious morbidity and mortality. Combination antiretroviral therapy has demonstrated 
significant improvement in AIDS-related morbidity and mortality.
As the treatment of HIV in paediatric patients is a life-long endeavour, the development 
of new agents remains essential for overcoming drug resistance and toxicity, improving 
treatment compliance, and providing new options in cases where a lack of paediatric 
formulations or cross-resistance within a class limit the options available for children. A 
liquid formulation of DTG would provide a new option for new borns of up to 
approximately 6 weeks of age who have acquired or been born with HIV.  
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability of experimental 
liquid formulations of DTG relative to administration of a 2 x 5 mg DTG dispersible 
tablets dispersed in water, in healthy adult participants.  
4.4.
Justification for Dose
The European Medicines Agency (EMEA)-approved adult dose of DTG for treatment-
naive and non-INI resistant treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients is 50 mg once 
daily, alone or in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. 
This relative bioavailability study intends to test 2 neonatal formulations with different 
strengths currently under development in a sequential design in healthy adult subjects. 
Paediatric dispersible tablet (5mg) will be used as reference. Selection of the reference 
dose (2 x 5 mg DTG dispersible tablets dispersed in water) will be based on the neonatal 
formulation strength to compare similar doses of the two formulations. Relative 
bioavailability of the previous 5 mg dispersible tablet (5x5mg) was studied in study 
205893 against 25mg film coated tablet. This study will be used to bridge the neonatal 
formulation bioavailability with the 50mg film coated tablets currently being used in 
adults.
4.5.
Discontinuation / Stopping Study
The study will be halted, and the risk to other participants evaluated, prior to a decision as 
to whether to terminate the study if any of the following criteria are met: 
•
The occurrence of an SAE considered at least possibly related to DTG administration 
in one participant.
•
The occurrence of severe, non-serious AEs considered at least possibly related to 
DTG administration in 2 participants.

Relatedness will be determined by the investigator.  If the study is halted, a temporary 
halt will be submitted to the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency 
(MHRA) and ethics committee (EC) in the form of a substantial amendment. The study 
will not be resumed until a further substantial amendment to resume the study is 
submitted and approved by MHRA and EC
4.6.
End of Study Definition
A participant is considered to have completed the study if he/she has completed all 
phases of the study including the last visit or the last scheduled procedure shown in the 
Schedule of Activities.
The end of the study is defined as the date of the last visit of the last participant in the 
study or last scheduled procedure shown in the Schedule of Activities for the last 
participant in the trial globally.
The EC and MHRA should be notified in writing of the conclusion of the study within 
90 days of the end of the study, or within 15 days if the study is terminated early, clearly 
explaining the reasons for the termination.
5.
STUDY POPULATION
Prospective approval of protocol deviations to recruitment and enrolment criteria, also 
known as protocol waivers or exemptions, is not permitted.
The site will have a full medical history from each participant’s general practitioner 
within the last 12 months, prior to enrolment in the study. Participants will be recruited 
from the site panel or by direct advertising to the public.
Before participants are admitted to the clinic, The Over Volunteering Prevention System 
will be checked to ensure that each participant has not participated in a study at another 
site within at least 3 months of the dosing date.

Dose Modification
This is a single dose study in healthy participants, there are no planned dose 
modifications.
6.7.
Intervention after the End of the Study
There will be no intervention available to participants following the study.
7.
DISCONTINUATION OF STUDY INTERVENTION AND 
PARTICIPANT DISCONTINUATION/WITHDRAWAL
If participants prematurely discontinue the study, additional replacement participants may 
be recruited at the discretion of the Sponsor in consultation with the investigator.
Replacement participants enrolled will be dosed with the next planned treatment of the 
withdrawn participant, and they will not receive any treatment that the withdrawn 
participants already received with the exception of the need to increase participant 
numbers to obtain the minimum number of evaluable participants required for the
preliminary decision, and to obtain data in any other treatment that is required for a valid 
comparison.  Replacement participants will receive the required treatments as planned for 
the original participant and the minimum washout period will be respected with regard to 
the timing of dosing.
7.1.
Discontinuation of Study Intervention
In rare instances, it may be necessary for a participant to permanently discontinue study 
intervention. If study intervention is permanently discontinued, the participant will not 
remain in the study to be evaluated for future pharmacokinetic measures. See the SOA 
for data to be collected at the time of discontinuation of study intervention.
Participants must be discontinued from the study for any of the following reasons:

QTc Stopping Criteria
A participant that meets the bulleted criterion based on the average of triplicate ECG
readings will be withdrawn from study intervention.  There are no planned ECG 
collections post-dose in this study; however, additional ECGs may be performed during 
the study at the discretion of the investigator.

QTcF > 500msec,

Change from baseline:  QTc >60msec.
NOTES:

The same QT correction formula must be used for each individual participant to 
determine eligibility for and discontinuation from the study.  This formula may not 
be changed or substituted once the participant has been enrolled.

For example, if a participant is eligible for the protocol based on QTcB, then QTcB 
must be used for discontinuation of this individual participant as well.

Once the QT correction formula has been chosen for a participant’s eligibility, the 
same formula must continue to be used for that participant for all QTc data being 
collected for data analysis.  Safety ECGs and other non-protocol specified ECGs are 
an exception.  

The QTc will be based on the average of triplicate ECG readings obtained over a 
brief (e.g., 5-10 minute) recording period.  
See the SoA for data to be collected at the time of intervention discontinuation or follow-
up for any further evaluations that need to be completed.
7.1.3.
Temporary Discontinuation
This Section is not applicable to this study.
7.1.4.
Study Termination
After the start of protocol activities but prior to the commencement of dosing, the study 
may be terminated by the Sponsor and investigator without consultation with the MHRA 
and EC.  The end of the trial must be notified to the MHRA and EC immediately and at 
the latest within 15 days after the study is terminated, clearly explaining the reasons.  A 
description of follow up measures taken for safety reasons if applicable, will also be 
provided.
If the study is abandoned prior to commencement of any protocol activities, the principal 
investigator (PI) or Sponsor must notify the end of trial to the EC and MHRA by letter 
outlining the reasons for abandonment of the trial.
Once exposure to DTG has begun, the study will be completed as planned unless the 
following criteria are satisfied that require a temporary halt or early termination of the 
study.

The occurrence of serious or severe AE(s), as defined in Appendix 4 (Section 11.4), if 
considered to be related to study treatment.


2018N379348_01


New information regarding the safety of the study treatment that indicates a change in 
the risk/benefit profile for the compound, such that the risk/benefit is no longer 
acceptable for participants in the study.

Significant violation of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) that compromises the ability to 
achieve the primary study objectives or compromises participant safety.
If any of the above occurs, the study will be terminated if careful review of the overall 
risk/benefit analysis described in Section 2.3 demonstrates that the assumptions have 
changed and that the overall balance is no longer acceptable.  In these circumstances 
termination can only take place with the agreement of the investigator and Sponsor.  The 
MHRA and EC will be informed of study termination.
If it becomes necessary to consider termination of the study after dosing has begun, 
dosing may be suspended pending discussion between the investigator and Sponsor.
Dosing will be stopped immediately on safety grounds.
The study may be terminated or suspended at the request of the MHRA or EC.
7.2.
Participant Discontinuation/Withdrawal from the Study

A participant may withdraw from the study at any time at his/her own request or may 
be withdrawn at any time at the discretion of the investigator for safety, behavioural, 
compliance or administrative reasons. This is expected to be uncommon.

At the time of discontinuing from the study, if possible, an early discontinuation visit 
should be conducted, as shown in the SoA. See SoA for data to be collected at the 
time of study discontinuation or follow-up for any further evaluations that need to be 
completed.

The participant will be permanently discontinued both from the study intervention 
and from the study at that time.

If the participant withdraws consent for disclosure of future information, the sponsor 
may retain and continue to use any data collected before such a withdrawal of 
consent.

If a participant withdraws from the study, he/she may request destruction of any 
samples taken and not tested, and the investigator must document this in the site study 
records.
7.3.
Lost to Follow Up
A participant will be considered lost to follow-up if he or she repeatedly fails to return for 
scheduled visits and is unable to be contacted by the study site. 
The following actions must be taken if a participant fails to return to the clinic for a 
required study visit:


2018N379348_01


The site must attempt to contact the participant and reschedule the missed visit as 
soon as possible and counsel the participant on the importance of maintaining the 
assigned visit schedule and ascertain whether or not the participant wishes to and/or 
should continue in the study.

Before a participant is deemed lost to follow up, the investigator or designee must 
make every effort to regain contact with the participant (where possible, 3 telephone 
calls and, if necessary, a certified letter to the participant’s last known mailing 
address or local equivalent methods). These contact attempts should be documented 
in the participant’s medical record.

Should the participant continue to be unreachable, he/she will be considered to have 
withdrawn from the study. 
Discontinuation of specific sites or of the study are handled as part of Appendix 1.

of the day

The investigator must review the laboratory report, document this review, and record 
any clinically relevant changes occurring during the study in the AE section of the 
case report form (CRF). The laboratory reports must be filed with the source 
documents. Clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings are those which are 
not associated with the underlying disease, unless judged by the investigator to be 
more severe than expected for the participant's condition.

All laboratory tests with values considered clinically significantly abnormal during 
participation in the study or within 7 days after the last dose of study intervention
should be repeated until the values return to normal or baseline or are no longer 
considered significantly abnormal by the investigator or medical monitor. 

If such values do not return to normal/baseline within a period-of-time judged 
reasonable by the investigator, the aetiology should be identified and the sponsor 
notified.


All protocol-required laboratory assessments, as defined in Appendix 2, must be 
conducted in accordance with the laboratory manual and the SoA.
8.3.
Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The definitions of an AE or SAE can be found in Appendix 3.
The investigator and any qualified designees are responsible for detecting, documenting, 
and reporting events that meet the definition of an AE or SAE and remain responsible for 
following up AEs that are serious, considered related to the study intervention or the 
study, or that caused the participant to discontinue the study (see Section 7). 
8.3.1.
Time Period and Frequency for Collecting AE and SAE 
Information

All SAEs will be collected from the start of intervention until the follow-up visit at 
the time points specified in the SoA (Section 1.3).  However, any SAEs assessed as 
related to study participation (e.g., study intervention, protocol-mandated 
procedures, invasive tests, or change in existing therapy) or related to a ViiV product 
will be recorded from the time a participant gives consent to participate in the study.

All AEs will be collected from the start of intervention until [the follow-up visit] at 
the time points specified in the SoA (Section 1.3).

Medical occurrences that begin before the start of study intervention but after 
obtaining informed consent will be recorded on the Medical History/Current Medical 
Conditions section of the CRF not the AE section.

All SAEs will be recorded and reported to the sponsor or designee immediately and 
under no circumstance should this exceed 24 hours, as indicated in Appendix 3. The 
investigator will submit any updated SAE data to the sponsor within 24 hours of it 
being available.

Investigators are not obligated to actively seek AEs or SAEs after the conclusion of 
the study participation. However, if the investigator learns of any SAE, including a 
death, at any time after a participant has been discharged from the study, and he/she 
considers the event to be reasonably related to the study intervention or study 
participation, the investigator must promptly notify the sponsor.
8.3.2.
Method of Detecting AEs and SAEs

The method of recording, evaluating, and assessing causality of AEs and SAEs and 
the procedures for completing and transmitting SAE reports are provided in 
Appendix 3.

Care will be taken not to introduce bias when detecting AE and/or SAE. Open-ended 
and non-leading verbal questioning of the participant is the preferred method to 
inquire about AE occurrence.

8.3.3.
Follow-up of AEs and SAEs
After the initial AE/SAE report, the investigator is required to proactively follow each 
participant at subsequent visits/contacts. All SAEs, will be followed until the event is 
resolved, stabilized, otherwise explained, or the participant is lost to follow-up (as 
defined in Section 7.3). Further information on follow-up procedures is given in 
Appendix 3.
8.3.4.
Regulatory Reporting Requirements for SAEs

Prompt notification by the investigator to the sponsor of a SAE is essential so that 
legal obligations and ethical responsibilities towards the safety of participants and the 
safety of a study intervention under clinical investigation are met. 

The sponsor has a legal responsibility to notify both the local regulatory authority and 
other regulatory agencies about the safety of a study intervention under clinical 
investigation. The sponsor will comply with country-specific regulatory requirements 
relating to safety reporting to the regulatory authority, Institutional Review Boards 
(IRB)/Independent Ethics Committees (IEC), and investigators.

Investigator safety reports must be prepared for suspected unexpected serious adverse 
reactions (SUSAR) according to local regulatory requirements and sponsor policy and 
forwarded to investigators as necessary.

An investigator who receives an investigator safety report describing a SAE or other 
specific safety information e.g., summary or listing of SAE) from the sponsor will 
review and then file it along with the Investigator’s Brochure and will notify the 
IRB/IEC, if appropriate according to local requirements.
8.3.5.
Pregnancy
Women of child bearing potential are not permitted to participate in this study.
8.4.
Treatment of Overdose
For this study, any dose of dolutegravir greater than 50 mg within a 24-hour period 4
hours will be considered an overdose.
ViiV Healthcare does not recommend specific treatment for an overdose.
In the event of an overdose, the investigator/treating physician should:
1. Contact the Medical Monitor immediately.
2. Closely monitor the participant for AE/SAE and laboratory abnormalities until 
dolutegravir can no longer be detected systemically (at least 7 days).
3. Obtain a plasma sample for PK analysis within 3 days from the date of the last dose 
of study intervention if requested by the Medical Monitor (determined on a case-by-
case basis).

4. Document the quantity of the excess dose as well as the duration of the overdosing in 
the CRF.
Decisions regarding dose interruptions or modifications will be made by the investigator 
in consultation with the Medical Monitor based on the clinical evaluation of the 
participant.
8.5.
Pharmacokinetics
8.5.1.
Blood Sample Collection
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis of DTG will be collected at the time 
points indicated in the SoA via venepuncture and/or cannulation, Section 1.3.  The 4-hour 
post-dose sample must be drawn prior to the participants’ first post-dose meal.  
Instructions for the collection and handling of biological samples are provided below.  
The actual date and time of each blood sample collection will be recorded.  
For each time point identified in the SoA, Section 1.3 , 2 mL of blood will be collected 
into di-potassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (K2EDTA) tubes.  Details of PK blood 
sample collection, processing, storage and shipping procedures are provided in the site 
provided SRM.
The acceptable deviations from the nominal post-dose blood sampling times are as 
follows:

The pre-dose blood sample will be taken ≤1hour before dosing. 

Post-dose samples from >0 to 4 hours post-dose will be taken within ±2 minutes of 
the nominal post-dose sampling time.

Post-dose samples from >4 to 12 hours post-dose will be taken within ±5 minutes of 
the nominal post-dose sampling time.

Post-dose samples from >12 to 48 hours will be taken within ±15 minutes of the 
nominal post-dose sampling time.

Post-dose samples for 72 hours will be taken within ±2 hours of the nominal post-
dose sampling time.
8.5.2.
Sample Processing Procedures
If a cannula is used, the cannula will be inserted into an arm vein within sufficient time 
prior to dosing, will be kept patent with normal saline, and will be removed after the last 
blood sample is collected or earlier if the participant requests.  To avoid artificial dilution 
of the PK samples by saline, 0.5 mL of whole blood will be collected and discarded 
before each whole blood sample is collected.
Collect each serial whole blood PK sample as close as possible to the planned time 
relative to dosing detailed in the protocol.  Collect a whole blood (2 mL) sample into a 
properly labelled K2EDTA evacuated blood collection tube.  Record the date and exact 
time that each sample is collected in the CRF.

Samples will be used to evaluate the PK of dolutegravir. Each sample will be divided 
into 2 aliquots. Samples collected for analyses of dolutegravir whole blood concentration 
may also be used to evaluate safety or efficacy aspects related to concerns arising during 
or after the study.
8.5.3.
Sample Storage Conditions
Immediately after collection, gently invert (DO NOT SHAKE) the blood collection tube
8-10 times to mix the K2EDTA anti-coagulants with the whole blood and place the 
samples at room temperature.  Within 45 minutes of sample collection, centrifuge for 
10 minutes, at 1500 - 2000 G, in 4°C.  Within 30 minutes of centrifugation, using a 
polyethylene pipette, transfer plasma into separate, single, and appropriately labelled 
2 mL Amber Sarstedt tubes.  Immediately freeze the storage tubes in an upright position 
at -20°C.
8.5.4.
Sample Analysis
DTG will be extracted from plasma using protein precipitation followed by ultra-
performance liquid chromatography triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UPLC-
MS/MS) using the previously validated method, Quantitation of GSK1349572 in Human 
Plasma via UPLC with MS/MS Detection (PPD method number, P1170.02; 
GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2012N147635_00).  The analysis will be performed 
by PPD, 3230 Deming Way, Middleton, WI, USA. The DTG sample analysis will be 
under the management of Bioanalysis, Immunogenicity and Biomarkers (BIB), PTS, 
GlaxoSmithKline.  Raw data will be archived at the bioanalytical site.

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS
9.1.
Statistical Hypotheses
This study is designed to estimate the relative bioavailability of 2 experimental liquid
formulations of DTG relative to DTG dispersible tablets dispersed in water and dosed in 
the fasted state. 
No formal hypotheses will be tested.
For each pharmacokinetic endpoint (except tmax and tlag), point estimates of the geometric 
mean of the prototype treatment and Reference Treatment are estimated. The ratio of the 
two estimates (GMR), (prototype)/(reference), and its corresponding 90% confidence 
interval will be constructed.
9.2.
Sample Size Determination
9.2.1.
Sample Size Assumptions
A maximum of 18 participants will be enrolled to receive study intervention such that 
approximately 16 evaluable participants complete the study.  Precision estimates for both 
the mean treatment ratios and variability for the primary objectives of the study based on 
16 participants completing the study have been calculated.
The within subject coefficient of variation (CVw%) for the PK parameters in the GSK 
study 205893 following 5-mg dispersible DTG tablet was not available in the Clinical 
Pharmacology Study Report; therefore, the within subject coefficient of variation for the 
PK parameters was calculated using mixed model with treatment and period as fixed 
effects and subject as random effect on loge-transformed parameters. The estimates of 
within subject coefficient of variation (CVw %) are 16.7% for AUC(0-∞) and AUC(0-t) and 
20.8% for Cmax. A CVw% of 20.8% is a conservative estimate on which the sample size 
calculation was based.
For a sample size of 16 evaluable participants, it is estimated that for a point estimate of 
the ratio of geometric means (prototype: reference) of 1.00 the 90% CI would be 
approximately (0.88, 1.14) for the AUC(0-∞), AUC(0-t), and Cmax parameters.  
9.2.2.
Sample Size Sensitivity
Using estimates of parameter (any PK parameter, e.g., AUC, Cmax) variability [16.7%, 
23.5% and 27.5%] and point estimate of geometric mean ratio of 0.90, 0.95, 1.00, 1.05,
1.10, and 1.15,  the 90% CI for 16 evaluable participants has been calculated (Table 4).

For example, based upon the estimate of variability (CVw%) of 27.5% for DTG and a 
point estimate of the ratio of geometric means of 1.05; it is estimated that the 90% CI for 
the means of the PK parameter (e.g., AUCs, Cmax) will be (0.89, 1.24).
9.3.
Populations for Analyses
An evaluable participant will have completed the planned safety and PK assessments up 
to 72 hours after dosing.  An evaluable participant must also have received the relevant 
prototype and reference formulations for the comparisons of interest (e.g. a prototype
formulation and the reference).
For purposes of analysis, the following populations are defined:
Population

will be used as summary statistics for categorical variable. Geometric mean with
associated 95% CI, and the between-subject coefficient of variance (CV) (%CVb) for the
geometric mean will be included for PK variables, where applicable.
Baseline or pre-dose assessment is the last available assessment prior to time of the first 
dose unless it is specified otherwise.  If there are multiple assessments collected on the 
same scheduled time, the average of these assessments will be used.  For tabulated safety 
summaries, only the scheduled assessments will be included in the summary tables.
Version 9.3 or higher of the Statistical Analysis Software (SAS) system will be used to 
analyze data as well as to generate tables, listings, and figures.
Complete details will be documented in the Reporting and Analysis Plan (RAP).
9.4.1.
Primary and Secondary Analyses
Comparisons will be made for the single dose PK parameters of DTG, as described in 
Table 5.  For preliminary formulation decision see Section 4.2.

Pharmacokinetic Analyses
Pharmacokinetic analyses will be the responsibility of the Clinical Pharmacology 
Modelling & Simulation department within GSK or their designee.  Plasma DTG 
concentration-time data will be analyzed by non-compartmental methods with Phoenix 
WinNonlin.  Calculations will be based on the actual sampling times recorded during the 
study.  From the plasma concentration-time data, the following pharmacokinetic 
parameters will be determined, as data permit:  Cmax, tmax, AUC(0-t), AUC(0-), AUC(0-24), 
AUC(0-72), t1/2, tlag, C24, CL/F, tmax, t, λz, %AUCex, Vz/F and Ct.
Pharmacokinetic data will be listed and may be presented in graphical form and will be
summarized descriptively.  All PK data will be stored in the Archives, GlaxoSmithKline 
R& D. 
Statistical analyses of the PK parameter data will be the responsibility of Clinical 
Statistics, GlaxoSmithKline.
The PK parameters for DTG (except tmax and tlag) will be loge-transformed and separately 
analysed using a mixed effects model with fixed effect terms for treatment for each 
treatment comparison specified in Section 9.4.1.  Participant will be treated as a random 
effect in the model.  Point estimates and their associated 90% CIs will be constructed for 
the differences in PK parameter values between prototype and reference treatments.  The 
point estimates and their associated 90% CIs will then be back-transformed to provide 


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
40
point estimates and 90% CIs for the ratios of PK parameters from prototype and reference 
treatments.
The tmax will be analysed using the non-parametric Wilcoxon matched pair method to 
calculate point estimates and associated 90% confidence intervals for the median 
differences between test and reference treatments.
Further details will be provided in the RAP.
9.4.3.
Safety Analyses
Safety data will be presented in tabular format and summarized descriptively according to 
GSK’s Integrated Data Standards Library (IDSL) standards.  No formal statistical 
analysis of the safety data will be conducted.
The details of the statistical analyses of safety and PK data will be provided in the 
Reporting and Analysis Plan.
All safety analyses will be performed on the All Participants Population. 
9.5.
Preliminary Analyses
There will be no formal interim analyses.  However, an analyses of nominal time PK data 
will be performed after the final dosing session of the study (see Section 4.2).  .  
Treatment and period information may be used in the analyses.

Appendix 3: Adverse Events: Definitions and Procedures for 
Recording, Evaluating, Follow-up, and Reporting
11.3.1.
Definition of AE
AE Definition

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally 
associated with the use of a study intervention, whether or not considered related to 
the study intervention.

NOTE: An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an 
abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally 
associated with the use of a study intervention.
Events Meeting the AE Definition

Any abnormal laboratory test results (hematology, clinical chemistry, or urinalysis) 
or other safety assessments (e.g., ECG, radiological scans, vital signs 
measurements), including those that worsen from baseline, considered clinically 
significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the investigator (i.e., not related 
to progression of underlying disease).

Exacerbation of a chronic or intermittent pre-existing condition including either an 
increase in frequency and/or intensity of the condition.

New conditions detected or diagnosed after study intervention administration even
though it may have been present before the start of the study.

Signs, symptoms, or the clinical sequelae of a suspected drug-drug interaction.

Signs, symptoms, or the clinical sequelae of a suspected overdose of either study 
intervention or a concomitant medication. Overdose per se will not be reported as an 
AE/SAE unless it is an intentional overdose taken with possible suicidal/self-
harming intent. Such overdoses should be reported regardless of sequelae.
Events NOT Meeting the AE Definition 

Any clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings or other abnormal safety 
assessments which are associated with the underlying disease, unless judged by the 
investigator to be more severe than expected for the participant’s condition.

The disease/disorder being studied or expected progression, signs, or symptoms of 


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
49
Events NOT Meeting the AE Definition 
the disease/disorder being studied, unless more severe than expected for the 
participant’s condition.

Medical or surgical procedure (e.g., endoscopy, appendectomy): the condition that 
leads to the procedure is the AE.

Situations in which an untoward medical occurrence did not occur (social and/or 
convenience admission to a hospital).

Anticipated day-to-day fluctuations of pre-existing disease(s) or condition(s) present 
or detected at the start of the study that do not worsen.
11.3.2.
Definition of SAE
If an event is not an AE per definition above, then it cannot be an SAE even if serious 
conditions are met (e.g., hospitalization for signs/symptoms of the disease under study, 
death due to progression of disease).
A SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose:

Results in death
Is life-threatening:
The term 'life-threatening' in the definition of 'serious' refers to an event in which the 
participant was at risk of death at the time of the event. It does not refer to an event, 
which hypothetically might have caused death, if it were more severe.
Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
In general, hospitalization signifies that the participant has been detained (usually 
involving at least an overnight stay) at the hospital or emergency ward for observation 
and/or treatment that would not have been appropriate in the physician’s office or 
outpatient setting. Complications that occur during hospitalization are AE. If a 
complication prolongs hospitalization or fulfills any other serious criteria, the event is 
serious. When in doubt as to whether “hospitalization” occurred or was necessary, the AE 
should be considered serious.
Hospitalization for elective treatment of a pre-existing condition that did not worsen from 
baseline is not considered an AE.
Results in persistent disability/incapacity

The term disability means a substantial disruption of a person’s ability to conduct 
normal life functions.

This definition is not intended to include experiences of relatively minor medical 
significance such as uncomplicated headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, influenza, 
and accidental trauma (eg, sprained ankle) which may interfere with or prevent 
everyday life functions but do not constitute a substantial disruption.


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
50
Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect
Other situations:

Medical or scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether SAE 
reporting is appropriate in other situations such as important medical events that may 
not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may 
jeopardize the participant or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent 
one of the other outcomes listed in the above definition. These events should usually 
be considered serious.
Examples of such events include invasive or malignant cancers, intensive treatment 
in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm, blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization, or development of drug dependency 
or drug abuse.
11.3.3.
Recording and Follow-Up of AE and SAE
AE and SAE Recording

When an AE/SAE occurs, it is the responsibility of the investigator to review all 
documentation (eg, hospital progress notes, laboratory, and diagnostics reports) 
related to the event.

The investigator will then record all relevant AE/SAE information in the CRF.

It is not acceptable for the investigator to send photocopies of the participant’s 
medical records to GSK in lieu of completion of the GSK /AE/SAE CRF page.

There may be instances when copies of medical records for certain cases are 
requested by GSK. In this case, all participant identifiers, with the exception of the 
participant number, will be redacted on the copies of the medical records before 
submission to GSK.

The investigator will attempt to establish a diagnosis of the event based on signs, 
symptoms, and/or other clinical information. Whenever possible, the diagnosis (not 
the individual signs/symptoms) will be documented as the AE/SAE.
Assessment of Intensity
Every AE and SAE reported during the trial should be evaluated by the investigator and 
graded in the eCRF according to the DAIDS toxicity scales (see Appendix 5, Section
11.5 for a link to DAIDS toxicity). 
Note: Grade 4 DAIDS toxicity grades for laboratory parameters that are asymptomatic 
would not necessarily be considered SAEs, a clinical correlation would be necessary.
Where a DAIDS toxicity scale is not available for a particular event or parameter, then 
the investigator will instead make an assessment of intensity using one of the following 
categories:

Mild:  An event that is easily tolerated by the participant, causing minimal 
discomfort and not interfering with everyday activities.

Moderate:  An event that is sufficiently discomforting to interfere with normal 
everyday activities.


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
51

Severe:  An event that prevents normal everyday activities. - an AE that is assessed 
as severe will not be confused with an SAE. Severity is a category utilized for rating 
the intensity of an event; and both AEs and SAEs can be assessed as severe.
Note: An event is defined as ‘serious’ when it meets at least one of the pre-defined 
outcomes as described in the definition of an SAE.
Assessment of Causality

The investigator is obligated to assess the relationship between study intervention 
and each occurrence of each AE/SAE.

A "reasonable possibility" of a relationship conveys that there are facts, evidence, 
and/or arguments to suggest a causal relationship, rather than a relationship cannot 
be ruled out.

The investigator will use clinical judgment to determine the relationship.

Alternative causes, such as underlying disease(s), concomitant therapy, and other 
risk factors, as well as the temporal relationship of the event to study intervention 
administration will be considered and investigated.

The investigator will also consult the Investigator’s Brochure (IB) and/or Product 
Information, for marketed products, in his/her assessment.

For each AE/SAE, the investigator must document in the medical notes that he/she 
has reviewed the AE/SAE and has provided an assessment of causality.

There may be situations in which an SAE has occurred and the investigator has 
minimal information to include in the initial report to GSK. However, it is very 
important that the investigator always make an assessment of causality for 
every event before the initial transmission of the SAE data to GSK.

The investigator may change his/her opinion of causality in light of follow-up 
information and send an SAE follow-up report with the updated causality 
assessment.

The causality assessment is one of the criteria used when determining regulatory 
reporting requirements.
Follow-up of AE and SAE

The investigator is obligated to perform or arrange for the conduct of supplemental 
measurements and/or evaluations as medically indicated or as requested by GSK to 
elucidate the nature and/or causality of the AE or SAE as fully as possible. This may 
include additional laboratory tests or investigations, histopathological examinations, 
or consultation with other health care professionals.

If a participant dies during participation in the study or during a recognized follow-
up period, the investigator will provide GSK with a copy of any post-mortem 
findings including histopathology.


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
52

New or updated information will be recorded in the originally completed CRF.

The investigator will submit any updated SAE data to GSK within 24 hours of 
receipt of the information.
11.3.4.
Reporting of SAE to ViiV Healthcare/GSK
SAE Reporting to GSK via Electronic Data Collection Tool

The primary mechanism for reporting SAE to GSK will be the electronic data 
collection tool.

If the electronic system is unavailable, then the site will use the paper SAE data 
collection tool (see next section) in order to report the event within 24 hours.

The site will enter the SAE data into the electronic system as soon as it becomes 
available.

The investigator or medically-qualified sub-investigator must show evidence within 
the eCRF (e.g., check review box, signature, etc.) of review and verification of the 
relationship of each SAE to IP/study participation (causality) within 72 hours of SAE 
entry into the eCRF.

After the study is completed at a given site, the electronic data collection tool will be 
taken off-line to prevent the entry of new data or changes to existing data.

If a site receives a report of a new SAE from a study participant or receives updated 
data on a previously reported SAE after the electronic data collection tool has been 
taken off-line, then the site can report this information on a paper SAE form (see 
next section) or to the Medical Monitor by telephone.

Documented bilateral salpingectomy

Documented bilateral oophorectomy
For individuals with permanent infertility due to an alternate medical cause other than 
the above, (e.g., mullerian agenesis, androgen insensitivity), investigator discretion 
should be applied to determining study entry.
Note: Documentation can come from the site personnel’s: review of the participant’s 
medical records, medical examination, or medical history interview.
3. Postmenopausal female

A postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months without an 
alternative medical cause. 

A high follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level in the postmenopausal range may 
be used to confirm a postmenopausal state in women not using hormonal 
contraception or hormonal replacement therapy (HRT). 

Females on HRT and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use 
one of the non-estrogen hormonal highly effective contraception methods if they 
wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue 
HRT to allow confirmation of postmenopausal status before study enrollment.

Female Participants who become pregnant

Investigator will collect pregnancy information on any female participant, who 
becomes pregnant while participating in this study. 

Information will be recorded on the appropriate form and submitted to GSK within 
24 hours of learning of a participant's pregnancy. 

Participant will be followed to determine the outcome of the pregnancy. The 
investigator will collect follow up information on participant and neonate, which will 
be forwarded to GSK Generally, follow-up will not be required for longer than 6 to 8 
weeks beyond the estimated delivery date.  

Any termination of pregnancy will be reported, regardless of fetal status (presence or 
absence of anomalies) or indication for procedure. 

While pregnancy itself is not considered to be an AE or SAE, any pregnancy 
complication or elective termination of a pregnancy will be reported as an AE or 
SAE. 

A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as 
such. 

Any SAE occurring as a result of a post-study pregnancy which is considered 
reasonably related to the study intervention by the investigator, will be reported to 
GSK as described in Appendix 3. While the investigator is not obligated to actively 
seek this information in former study participants, he or she may learn of an SAE 
through spontaneous reporting. 
Any female participant who becomes pregnant while participating will discontinue study 
intervention or be withdrawn from the study

VERSION 2.1, March 2017
The Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Paediatric Adverse 
Events (“DAIDS AE Grading Table”) is a descriptive terminology which can be utilised 
for Adverse Event (AE) reporting.  A grading (severity) scale is provided for each AE 
term.
Estimating Severity Grade for Parameters Not Identified in the Grading Table
The table in the link below should be used to grade the severity of an AE that is not 
specifically identified in the grading table. In addition, all deaths related to an AE are to 
be classified as Grade 5.

Decline in Renal Function
Participants who experience an increase in serum creatinine from baseline of 
45 micromoles/liter (micromol/L) (or 0.5 milligrams/deciliter [mg/dL]) or greater should 
have a confirmatory assessment. A urinalysis, urine albumin/creatinine and urine total 
protein/albumin ratios, serum cystatin C and an estimated GFR using the CKD-EPI 
(cystatin C) [Inker, 2012] should also be done at this confirmatory visit. If the creatinine 
increase is confirmed, the investigator should contact the study medical monitor to 
discuss additional follow-up and medical management.

Appendix 8: Safety Reporting to Ethics Committee and 
Regulatory Authorities
Events Requiring Expedited Reporting
SUSARs are subject to expedited reporting to the MHRA, EMA and EC.  In addition to 
SUSARs, other safety issues may qualify for expedited reporting where they might 
materially alter the current benefit-risk assessment of a study treatment or that would be 
sufficient to consider changes in the study treatments administration or in the overall 
conduct of the study, for instance:

An increase in the rate of occurrence or a qualitative change of an expected serious 
adverse reaction, which is judged to be clinically important

SAEs that occur after the participant has completed the clinical study where the 
sponsor considers them to be a SUSAR

New events related to the conduct of the study or the development of the study 
treatments and likely to affect the safety of the participants, such as:
o
An SAE which could be associated with the study procedures and which could 
modify the conduct of the study
o
A major safety finding from a newly completed animal study (such as 
carcinogenicity)
o
Any anticipated end or temporary halt of a study for safety reasons and conducted 
with the same study treatments in another country by the same sponsor
Reporting of Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSARs)
It is the responsibility of the Sponsor to determine whether a reported SAE fits the 
classification of a SUSAR and to notify the investigator of their decision as soon as 
possible.
Expedited Reporting of Events
It is the responsibility of the Sponsor to determine whether an event requires expedited 
reporting and to notify the investigator of their decision as soon as possible.
Where expedited reporting is required, the following procedures will be followed.
Fatal or life-threatening SUSARs:

It is the responsibility of the sponsor to report fatal or life-threatening SUSARs to the 
MHRA and EMA as soon as possible, but no later than 7 calendar days after they first 
became aware of the reaction. This responsibility will be delegated to the 
pharmacovigilance provider (GSK/ViiV).

The investigator is required to notify the EC of any SUSAR as soon as possible, but 
no later than 7 calendar days after they first became aware of the reaction.

Any additional relevant information will be sent within 8 days of the report.
Other SUSARs:

It is the responsibility of the Sponsor to report other SUSARs to the MHRA and 
EMA as soon as possible, but no later than 15 calendar days after they first became 


2018N379348_01
CONFIDENTIAL
209354
63
aware of the reaction. This responsibility will be delegated to the pharmacovigilance 
provider (GSK/ViiV).

The investigator is required to notify the EC of other SUSARs as soon as possible, 
but no later than 15 calendar days after they first became aware of the reaction.
Urgent Safety Measures
If Quotient Sciences or any of its staff or contractors becomes aware of an actual or 
potential urgent safety issue, then the sponsor must be immediately contacted so that 
appropriate urgent safety measures can be agreed. An urgent safety issue is defined as:

An immediate hazard to the health or safety of participants enrolled in a clinical study

A serious risk to human health or potentially a serious risk to human health.
An urgent safety issue may include issues with an investigational drug or comparators, 
study procedures, inter-current illness (including pandemic infections), concomitant 
medications, concurrent medical conditions or any other issues related to the safe conduct 
of the study or that pose a risk to study participants.
In exceptional circumstances of imminent hazard and to safeguard the health or safety of 
individuals, Quotient Sciences may take urgent safety measures before informing the 
sponsor, but the sponsor must be informed immediately after the hazard has resolved.
Quotient Sciences will take responsibility for informing appropriate competent 
authorities, and the EC.
Reporting of Urgent Safety Issues
Quotient Sciences is required to inform the appropriate competent authorities and the EC 
within 3 calendar days of the urgent safety issue.
Serious Breaches
It is the responsibility of the Sponsor to notify the licensing authority of any serious 
breach, which is likely to affect, to a significant degree, the safety or mental integrity of 
the participants of the study or the scientific value of the study.
All serious breaches will be notified to the MHRA within 7 days. The reporting will be 
performed by the party who suspects the serious breach.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this reporting and analysis plan (RAP) is to describe the analyses to be 
included in the Clinical Study Report for Protocol:
Revision Chronology:
2018N379348_00
29-Oct-2018
Original
2018N379348_01
27-Feb-2019
The original protocol was written assuming that a greater 
number of prototype formulations would possibly have been 
tested in the study.  Pre-clinical testing yielded only 2 
prototypes suitable to take forward clinically.  This amendment 
clarifies the study design for only 2 test formulations.

Statistical Hypotheses
This study is designed to estimate the relative bioavailability of two experimental liquid 
formulations of DTG relative to DTG dispersible tablets dispersed in water and dosed in 
the fasted state. 
No formal hypotheses will be tested.
For each pharmacokinetic endpoint (except tmax and tlag), point estimates of the geometric 
mean of each prototype treatment and Reference Treatment are estimated.  The ratio of 
the two estimates (GMR), (prototype)/(reference), and its corresponding 90% 
confidence interval will be constructed.

Derived Pharmacokinetic Parameters
Pharmacokinetic parameters of DTG will be calculated by standard non-compartmental 
analysis according to current working practices and using the currently supported version 
of WinNonlin 6.3 or higher. All calculations of non-compartmental parameters will be 
based on actual sampling times. Pharmacokinetic parameters listed will be determined 
from the plasma concentration-time data, as data permits.
Parameter
Parameter Description
AUC(0-t)
(h*ng/mL)
The area under the concentration-time curve from zero time (pre-dose) to the time of last
quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)) will be calculated by a combination of linear and
logarithmic trapezoidal methods. The linear trapezoidal method will be employed for all
incremental trapezoids arising from increasing concentrations and the logarithmic
trapezoidal method will be used for those arising from decreasing concentrations (i.e.,
Linear Up/Log Down calculation method in Phoenix WinNonlin Professional).
AUC(0-inf)
(h*ng/mL)
The area under the concentration-time curve from zero time (pre-dose) extrapolated to
infinite time (AUC(0-inf)) will be calculated as follows:
AUC(0-inf) = AUC(0-t) + Ct / z
Cmax (ng/mL)
Maximum observed plasma concentration following each dose will be obtained directly from 
the concentration-time data.
NOTES:

Additional parameters may be included as required.

Ct is the last observed quantifiable concentration.

z is the first order rate constant associated with the terminal (log-linear) portion of the curve.
8.1.2.
Summary Measure
The ratio of geometric means for AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) and Cmax of DTG between each of 
the prototypes and DTG reference treatment will be used for the comparison between 
Prototype A vs. DTG Reference Treatment, and Prototype B vs. DTG Reference 
Treatment.

Model Specification

To evaluate the relative bioavailability of equivalent doses of single dose prototype liquid 
formulations containing 10mg equivalent DTG (Prototypes A and B) compared to a single dose 
of 2 x 5mg dispersible DTG tablet dispersed in water (DTG Reference Treatment), the PK 
parameters will be analysed using a mixed effect model as described below:
loge (PK parameter) = 0 +i + j + εij
where,
0: intercept
i: random effect for ith participant, following N(0, b2)
j: treatment effect (j = Prototype A or Prototype B or DTG Reference Treatment)
εij: random error for participant i, treatment effect j, following N(0, w2).

The model parameters will be estimated using Restricted Maximum Likelihood with the 
Newton-Raphson algorithm.

The Kenward-Roger degree of freedom approach will be used.

Given the random effect for subject “i", the random error is assumed to be independently 
distributed within the subject.

The least square means for each treatment formulation (Prototype A, Prototype B and DTG 
Reference Treatment) will be estimated based on the fitted model. The mean difference 
between the treatment formulations (Prototype A vs. DTG Reference Treatment, and Prototype 
B vs. DTG Reference Treatment) and its 90% CIs will be also estimated using the within-
subject variance.

The estimates of least square means for each treatment formulation, the treatment difference 
between treatment formulations and the 90% CIs will be exponentially back-transformed to 
obtain the estimates of geometric means of AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) and Cmax for each treatment

formulation, the ratio of geometric means (Prototype A/DTG Reference, Prototype B/DTG 
Reference) and its 90% CIs, respectively.

Within-subject variability (%CVw) for the PK parameters will be estimated using within-subject 
variance from the analysis model as follows:
%CVw (%) = [exp(w2) – 1]1/2 x 100

In case there is a problem with model convergence, the arithmetic means for loge-transformed 
AUC(0-t) and Cmax and the treatment differences (Prototype A vs. DTG Reference, Prototype B vs. 
DTG Reference) within each participant will be calculated using only data from the participants who 
have completed both the periods for Prototype A and DTG Reference (and Prototype B and DTG 
Reference, for the second comparison).The mean treatment difference and paired-t test based 
90% CIs for treatment difference in loge scale will be estimated. The results will be provided in an 
exponentially back-transformed scale.
Model Results Presentation
Based on the relative bioavailability, the bioequivalence between Prototypes A, B and DTG 
Reference Treatment will be evaluated as follows: 

The bioequivalence is established when the 90% CI of the ratio for AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) and 
Cmax between treatment formulations (Prototype A vs. DTG Reference Treatment, and 
Prototype B vs. DTG Reference Treatment) are within the range of 0.80 to 1.25.

Even if the 90% CI doesn’t meet the above criteria, the bioequivalence is established when 
the point estimate of the ratio for AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf) and Cmax between treatment 
formulations are within the range of 0.90 to 1.11.

based on actual sampling times. Pharmacokinetic parameters listed will be determined 
from the plasma concentration-time data, as data permits.
Parameter
Parameter Description
AUC(0-t)
(h*ng/mL)
The area under the concentration-time curve from zero time (pre-dose) to the time of last
quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)) will be calculated by a combination of linear and
logarithmic trapezoidal methods. The linear trapezoidal method will be employed for all
incremental trapezoids arising from increasing concentrations and the logarithmic
trapezoidal method will be used for those arising from decreasing concentrations (i.e.,
Linear Up/Log Down calculation method in Phoenix WinNonlin Professional).
AUC(0-inf)
(h*ng/mL)
The area under the concentration-time curve from zero time (pre-dose) extrapolated to
infinite time (AUC(0-inf)) will be calculated as follows:
AUC(0-inf) = AUC(0-t) + Ct / z
AUC(0-24)
(h*ng/mL)
The area under the concentration-time curve from zero time (pre-dose) to 24 hours post-
dose.
AUC(0-72)
(h*ng/mL)
The area under the concentration-time curve from zero time (pre-dose) to 72 hours post-
dose.
Cmax (ng/mL)
Maximum observed plasma concentration following each dose will be obtained directly from 
the concentration-time data.
C24 (ng/mL)
The observed concentration at 24h post-dose.
Ct (ng/mL)
The last observed quantifiable concentration.
tmax (h)
The time to maximum observed plasma drug concentration following each dose will be 
obtained directly from the concentration-time data.
t1/2 (h)
Terminal half-life will be calculated as follows:
t1/2 = ln2 / z
tlag (h)
Absorption lag time.
t (h)
The time of last quantifiable concentration.
%AUCex (%)
The percentage of AUC(0-inf) obtained by extrapolation (%AUCex) will be calculated as 
follows:
%AUCex = (AUC(0-inf) – AUC(0-t)) / AUC(0-inf) x 100
CL/F
(mL/h)
Apparent clearance following oral dosing will be calculated as follows:
CL/F = Dose / AUC(0-inf)
Vz/F
(mL)
Apparent volume of distribution after oral administration will be calculated as follows:
Vz/F = Dose / (z x AUC(0-inf))
z (/h)
The first order rate constant associated with the terminal (log-linear) portion of the curve.

tables.
Study Day

Calculated as the number of days from First Dose Date:

Ref Date = Missing              → Study Day = Missing 

Ref Date < First Dose Date → Study Day = Ref Date – First Dose Date

Ref Data ≥ First Dose Date → Study Day = Ref Date – (First Dose Date) + 1    
Period Day

Calculated as the number of days from Dosing Date in Period 1 or Period 2 or Period 3.

If Study Phase of Ref Assessment or Event = Pre-Treatment or Missing
→ Period Day = Missing 

If Study Phase of Ref Assessment or Event = Period 1
→ If Ref Date is on or after Dosing Date in Period 1, Period Day = Ref Date – Dosing Date in 
Period 1 + 1 day

If Study Phase of Ref Assessment or Event = Period 2
→ If Ref Date is on or after Dosing Date in Period 2, Period Day = Ref Date – Dosing Date in

If the partial date is a start date, a '01' will be used for the day and 'Jan' will be 
used for the month
o
If the partial date is a stop date, a '28/29/30/31' will be used for the day (dependent 
on the month and year) and 'Dec' will be used for the month.

The eCRF allows for the possibility of missing times to be recorded for concomitant 
medications start and end dates. Missing times will be imputed using the following 
convention:
o
If the missing time is a start time, a '00:00' will be used for the time.
