About

The purpose of this study is to compare the amount of GSK1349572 (study drug) in the blood when given with and without atazanavir/ritonavir or atazanavir and to compare the blood levels of atazanavir when given with GSK1349572 to historical data for atazanavir.

Full description

GSK1349572 is an integrase inhibitor that will be evaluated for the treatment of HIV infection. As GSK1349572 progresses into clinical trials in HIV-infected patients where combination antiretroviral therapy is the standard of care, it is likely that it will be dosed with protease inhibitors (PIs) including atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/RTV) and atazanavir alone. Ritonavir is a substrate of CYP3A and inhibitor of CYP3A and Pgp and atazanavir is an inhibitor of UGT1A1. Ritonavir is also a known inducer of CYP and UGT enzymes. As GSK1349572 likely undergoes metabolism by CYP and UGT enzymes and is a Pgp substrate, a drug interaction study between GSK1349572 and ATV is warranted. GSK1349572 is not an inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A and is not expected to have impact on pharmacokinetics (PK) of atazanavir and ritonavir. Accordingly, the primary objective of this study is to compare steady-state plasma PK, safety and tolerability of GSK1349572 30 mg every 24h (q24h) with and without ATV/RTV 300/100 mg q24h or ATV 400mg q24h.

Approximately 24 subjects will receive GSK1349572 30mg q24h for 5 days (Treatment A). Subjects will then be administered GSK1349572 30mg q24h in combination with either ATV/RTV 300/100 mg q24h (Treatment B, n=12) or ATV 400 mg q24h (Treatment C, n=12) for 14 days. There will be no washout between treatments. Safety evaluations and serial PK samples will be collected during each treatment period. A follow-up visit will occur 7-14 days after the last dose of study drug.

This study will be conducted at one center in the US, with healthy adult male and female subjects.

• Male subjects 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 14 days post-last dose.
• Body weight greater than or equal to 50 kg for men and greater than or equal to 45 kg for women and body mass index (BMI) within the range 18.0-32.0 kg/m2 (inclusive).
• Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.

Exclusion criteria

• The subject has a positive pre-study drug/alcohol screen. A minimum list of drugs that will be screened for include amphetamines, barbiturates, cocaine, opiates, cannabinoids and benzodiazepines.
• The subject has participated in a clinical trial and has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 30 days, 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer).
• History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof, including sulfa-containing drugs, or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.
• 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.
• If heparin is used during PK sampling, subjects with a history of sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia should not be enrolled.
• History of regular alcohol consumption within 6 months of the study defined as: An average weekly intake of >14 drinks/week for men or >7 drinks/week for women.
