Brief summary

Metformin may have complex interactions in the gut and is generally first line therapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It is important to understand whether there are significant pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic interactions when GSK2330672 is co-administered with metformin in subjects with T2DM. The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of GSK2330672 administered for 7 days to subjects with T2DM taking metformin. This will be a two-period crossover study; subjects will receive either GSK2330672 or placebo for 7 days in each period separated by a washout period of 13 to 15 days. All subjects will receive metformin throughout the study

Interventions

GSK2330672 will be supplied as oral solution, and will be administered BID \[45 mg (2 days repeat dose) and 90 mg (5 days repeat dose) in each period\]

DRUGPlacebo

GSK2330672 matching placebo will be supplied as oral solution, and will be administered BID (7 days of dosing in each period)

DRUGMetformin

Metformin 850 mg will be administered BID from Run-in period till Day 7 of period 2

Subjects with a history of cholelithiasis and uncomplicated cholecystectomy more than 3 months before screening may be eligible if approved by the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Medical Monitor; No excessive alcohol intake. * C-peptide of \>0.8 nanogram (ng)/mL at screening visit. * Urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio \<30 mg/gram (g). * Fasting plasma glucose \<280 mg/decilitre (dL) * Body mass index (BMI) of 24 to 40 kilograms (kg)/square meter (m\^2), inclusive * In good general health with (in the opinion of the investigator) no clinically significant and relevant abnormalities of medical history or physical examination that would introduce additional risk factors or interfere with study procedures or objectives, based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, vital signs and laboratory tests. * Female subjects of non-childbearing potential. Non-childbearing potential is defined as: Pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy \[for this definition, documented refers to the outcome of the investigator's/designee's review of the subject's medical history for study eligibility, as obtained via a verbal interview with the subject or from the subject's medical records\]. Postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea. In questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) \> 40 milli international units (MIU)/mL and estradiol \< 40 picograms (pg)/mL (\<147 picomole \[pmol\]/liter \[L\]) is confirmatory. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the acceptable contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2 to 4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method. * Male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the acceptable contraception methods. This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until follow up visit. * Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form

MeasureTime frameDescription
Mean Change From Baseline in Overall Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) ScoresBaseline (Day -1) and Day 8 of each treatment periodThe impact of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms on health-related quality of life was assessed using the GSRS. The GSRS is a 15-item related to abdominal pain, reflux, indigestion, diarrhea and constipation syndromes, self-administered questionnaire that assesses the impact of gastrointestinal symptoms during the past week on a scale from 1 (no discomfort at all) to 7 (very severe discomfort). Overall GSRS is the mean of questions 1-15 and range from 1 to 7, with lower scores indicating a better quality of life with respect to gastrointestinal symptoms. Baseline was defined as the assessment done on Day -1. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline (Day -1) values from the post-baseline value (Day 8).
Number of Participants With Vital Sign Values of PCI at Any Time Post BaselineUp to Follow-up (up to 53 days)Vital signs assessment included heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Assessments were completed at pre morning dose on Day 1 (Baseline), Day 3, Day 8 (before discharge) and Follow-up. Criteria for vital sign values meeting PCI for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) included: SBP \<85 and \>160 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), DBP \<45 and \>100 mmHg and HR \<40 and \>110 beats per minute (bpm). Only those parameters for which at least one value of PCI was reported are summarized.

The assessments were done using an ECG machine that automatically calculated the heart rate and measures PQ, QRS, QT, and QTc(B) intervals. Abnormal ECG findings (clinically significant or not clinically significant) were categorized. The abnormal PCI range for T2DM participants include QTc interval of \>450 to \<=480 milliseconds (msec) and increase from Baseline QTc interval of \> 30 to \<=60 msec, PR interval \<110 and \>220 msec and QRS interval \<75 and \>110 msec. ECG abnormalities were categorized as clinically significant or not clinically significant based on PCI criteria and judgment of the investigator. Baseline was defined as the mean of three replicate assessments at pre-dose on Day 1.

Blood samples were collected at 0 h (pre-dose within 15 min of dose and began eating breakfast immediately after taking study drug and finished eating in 15 min), 0.25 h, 0.50 h, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h (pre-lunch), 5 h, 5.5 h, 6 h, 8 h and 10 h (pre-dinner) on Day 7.
Maximum and Weighted Mean Change From Baseline in Plasma Glucose Concentrations Over a 24 Hour (h) Period on Day 7Baseline (Day -1) and Day 7 of each treatment periodBaseline was defined as the time matched assessment done on Day -1. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline (Day -1) time matched values from the post-baseline value (Day 8). Data is reported for fasting glucose level and for weighted mean and maximum values for fasting, 0-4 h, 4-10 h, 10-14 h and 0-24 h. Area under the curve (AUC) with respect to these time interval was calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule by the sum of the areas between each chronological pair of assessments (using observed times). The weighted mean was then determined by dividing the AUC by the observed length of the collection interval (time of last assessment - time of first assessment in h). Analysis was done using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model where, change from baseline was summation of baseline, period, sequence and treatment. Participants were fitted as a random effect.

Number of Participants With Abnormal (Clinically Significant or Not Clinically Significant) Findings in 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) at Any Time Post Baseline

12-lead ECG assessments were obtained pre-dose at Day 1, Day 3, Day 8 (before discharge) and Follow-up. The assessments were done using an ECG machine that automatically calculated the heart rate and measures PQ, QRS, QT, and QTc(B) intervals. Abnormal ECG findings (clinically significant or not clinically significant) were categorized. The abnormal PCI range for T2DM participants include QTc interval of \>450 to \<=480 milliseconds (msec) and increase from Baseline QTc interval of \> 30 to \<=60 msec, PR interval \<110 and \>220 msec and QRS interval \<75 and \>110 msec. ECG abnormalities were categorized as clinically significant or not clinically significant based on PCI criteria and judgment of the investigator. Baseline was defined as the mean of three replicate assessments at pre-dose on Day 1.

Time frame: Up to Follow-up (up to 53 days)

Population: Safety Population. Only those participants available at the specified time points were analyzed.

AUC From Time 0 to 10 h (AUC 0-10 h) of Metformin in Presence of GSK2330672 or Placebo on Day 7

AUC(0-10) for metformin when co-dosed with GSK2330672 or placebo is defined as the the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to 10 h. It was determined using the linear trapezoidal rule for increasing concentrations and the logarithmic trapezoidal rule for decreasing concentrations. Blood samples were collected at 0 h (pre-dose within 15 min of dose and began eating breakfast immediately after taking study drug and finished eating in 15 min), 0.25 h, 0.50 h, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h (pre-lunch), 5 h, 5.5 h, 6 h, 8 h and 10 h (pre-dinner) on Day 7. Analysis was done using a mixed effects model with fixed effect terms for treatment, period, and sequence. Participant within sequence was fitted as a random effect in the model.

Time frame: Pre-dose (0 h), 0.25 h, 0.50 h, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h (pre-lunch), 5 h, 5.5 h, 6 h, 8 h and 10 h (pre-dinner) on Day 7 of each treatment period

Maximum and Weighted Mean Change From Baseline in Plasma Glucose Concentrations Over a 24 Hour (h) Period on Day 7

Baseline was defined as the time matched assessment done on Day -1. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline (Day -1) time matched values from the post-baseline value (Day 8). Data is reported for fasting glucose level and for weighted mean and maximum values for fasting, 0-4 h, 4-10 h, 10-14 h and 0-24 h. Area under the curve (AUC) with respect to these time interval was calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule by the sum of the areas between each chronological pair of assessments (using observed times). The weighted mean was then determined by dividing the AUC by the observed length of the collection interval (time of last assessment - time of first assessment in h). Analysis was done using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model where, change from baseline was summation of baseline, period, sequence and treatment. Participants were fitted as a random effect.

Maximum Plasma Concentration of Metformin (Cmax) in Presence of GSK2330672 or Placebo on Day 7

Cmax is defined as the first occurrence of the maximum observed plasma concentration determined directly from the raw concentration-time data Blood samples were collected at 0 h (pre-dose within 15 min of dose and began eating breakfast immediately after taking study drug and finished eating in 15 min), 0.25 h, 0.50 h, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h (pre-lunch), 5 h, 5.5 h, 6 h, 8 h and 10 h (pre-dinner) on Day 7. Analysis was done using a mixed effects model with fixed effect terms for treatment, period, and sequence. Participant within sequence was fitted as a random effect in the model.

Time frame: Pre-dose (0 h), 0.25 h, 0.50 h, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h (pre-lunch), 5 h, 5.5 h, 6 h, 8 h and 10 h (pre-dinner) on Day 7 of each treatment period

Population: PK Population. Only those participants available at the specified time points were analyzed.
