A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameters outside the reference range for the population being studied may be included only if the Investigator and the GSK Medical Monitor agree that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures. Subjects with values outside the normal range which are deemed to be clinically relevant should always be excluded from enrollment.

- Use of prescription or non-prescription drugs, including vitamins, herbal and dietary supplements (including St John's Wort) within 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication (excluding simple analgesics), unless in the opinion of the Investigator and GSK Medical Monitor the medication will not interfere with the study procedures or compromise subject safety.
- History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.
- Where participation in the study would result in donation of blood or blood products in excess of 500 mL within a 56 day period.

About this study
Official title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Cross-over Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Single Ascending Oral Doses of GSK2239633 in Healthy Male Subjects.
The purpose of this first time into human study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of GSK2239633 in healthy male subjects.
Read the detailed description
GSK2239633 is a human chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) antagonist with a novel anti-inflammatory profile acting mainly on a subset of Th2 cells, with potential for the oral treatment of all severities of asthma. Inhibition of the CCR4 receptor represents a target for asthma because of the potential to inhibit Th2 cell chemotaxis and the subsequent effects of limiting Th2 cell involvement in both the acute and chronic inflammatory response. Recent data in man suggests that the CCR4 receptor ligands (thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) and macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC)) may be important in asthma and in the development of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA). This will provide a unique opportunity to differentiate GSK2239633 significantly from other oral non-steroidal asthma treatments. This study is the first administration of oral GSK2239633 in humans. Two alternating cohorts of 12 subjects will receive 3 single, ascending doses of oral GSK2239633 or placebo. In addition, one cohort will receive a single dose of GSK2239633 or placebo following the standard FDA high fat/high calorie meal. Safety will be monitored (ECGs, telemetry, vital signs, clinical laboratory assessments, adverse events), and blood samples will be taken for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing GSK2239633 in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Netherlands.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Safety and tolerability of GSK2239633 (time frame: 0 - 48 hours post dose). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01371812, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jul 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
