Brief summary
Study to compare PK of a new 100mg capsule with four 25mg capsules. This is required because we plan to have only single capsules administered in the later phase clinical trials but we have not had a 100mg strength before. As this is a new previously untested strength we need to ensure that the PK is similar to that achieved using 4 x 25mg. The study will also assess the effect of high fat food on the PK of the 100mg capsule. The study is planned to consist of a single part , with three dosing periods, periods 1-3 consisting of 16 subjects. There will be a week wash out between each dose. In the three dosing periods subjects will either received 4x25 mg GSK598809 capsule in a fasted state, 100mg capsule in a fasted state or 100mg GSK598809 capsule in a fed state. Subjects will return to the centre for follow-up 7-14 days after the final dose. It is expected that the total duration of the study should be approximately eight weeks.
Interventions
GSK598809 new formulation will be available as an immediate release capsule with a single dose of 100 milligrams, administered orally with 240 milliliters of water.
GSK598809 old formulation will be available as an immediate release capsule with a single dose of 25 milligrams, administered orally with 240 milliliters of water.
