Brief summary
This is an open-label, randomized, crossover study in healthy adult subjects with 5 treatment groups over 5 dosing periods. This study will evaluate pharmacokinetic parameters and relative bioavailability of a dispersible, fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet of TRIUMEQ™ (\[abacavir, ABC\]/\[dolutegravir, DTG\]/\[lamivudine, 3TC\]) when dispersed and consumed under four different dosing conditions in comparison to an oral dose of TIVICAY™ (DTG) + EPZICOM™ (ABC/3TC) non-dispersible tablets administered in the fasted state. Approximately 20 subjects will be randomized, each to one of 5 treatment groups. The total duration of participation of a subject in this study will be approximately 10-11 weeks. It will include a screening visit within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug, five treatment periods each with a single dose of study drug per treatment period and a follow up visit within 7 10 days after the last dose. There will also be a washout of at least 7 days between doses in each treatment period. TRIUMEQ, EPZICOM, and TIVICAY are trademarks of the GlaxoSmithKline group of companies.
Interventions
DTG/ABC/3TC FDC dispersible tablet
EPZICOM will be available as orange, film coated, modified capsule shaped tablets, debossed with GS FC2 on one side.
TIVICAY will be available as white, round, biconvex tablets

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male or female aged between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent. * Healthy as determined by the investigator or medically qualified designee based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests and cardiac evaluation (history and ECG). A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameter(s) which is/are not specifically listed in the inclusion or
Exclusion criteria
, outside the reference range for the population being studied may be included only if the investigator agree and document that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures. * Body weight \>=50 kilogram (kg) for males and \>=45 kg for females and body mass index (BMI) within the range 18.5-31.0 kg/m\^2 (inclusive). * Male or female * Females of non-reproductive potential defined as pre-menopausal females with documented tubal ligation, documented hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion, hysterectomy, documented bilateral oophorectomy, postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea (in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone \[FSH\] and estradiol levels consistent with menopause). Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the highly effective 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 enrolment. * Female of reproductive potential and agrees to follow one of the options listed in the Modified List of Highly Effective Methods for Avoiding Pregnancy in Females of Reproductive Potential (FRP) from 30 days prior to the first dose of study medication and until 2 weeks after dosing with study medication and completion of the follow-up visit. The investigator is responsible for ensuring that subjects understand how to properly use these methods of contraception. * Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form and in this protocol. * Documentation that the subject is negative for the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B\*5701 allele.
