  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Participant is 18 to 80 years of age, inclusive, at the time of signing the Informed consent form (ICF).
  • Participant has stable hepatic function that can be classified into 1 of 4 groups according to the Child-Pugh and National Cancer Institute Organ Dysfunction Working Group (NCI-ODWG) classification.
  • Participant has stable hepatic function (i.e., no clinically significant change in status according to the investigator's clinical judgment within the preceding 14 days [e.g., no worsening of clinical signs of HI, or no worsening of total bilirubin or prothrombin by more than 50 percent]) and those needing treatment are on stable doses of medication.
  • Participants with HI may be taking medications, which in the opinion of the investigator, are believed to be therapeutic but do not affect study intervention absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion (ADME).
  • Has no clinically significant and unstable cardiovascular or endocrine findings, except as expected by their pre-existing hepatic condition in the investigator's opinion.
  • Healthy as determined by the investigator or medically qualified designee based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests, and cardiac monitoring. Participants with chronic disorders such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus can be enrolled, provided those disorders are stable and adequately controlled, but otherwise participants should be considered healthy for their age.

Who cannot join

  • Participant has a history or evidence of clinically significant hematologic, dermatologic, neurologic, pulmonary, immunologic or atopic (except seasonal allergies), or endocrine disease, or psychiatric disorder (such as psychosis, delusions, or schizophrenia), or other abnormality, that may impact the ability of the participant to participate or potentially confound the study results, or that, in the investigator's opinion, makes the participant unsuitable for the study.
  • Semi-supine blood pressure (BP) outside the ranges of 100 to 140 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) for systolic BP and 50 to 90 mmHg for diastolic BP (BP to be measured in triplicate), or a semi-supine pulse rate outside the range of 45 to 90 beats per minute (bpm).
  • Participant has symptoms arising from orthostatic hypotension such that there is a decrease in systolic BP of greater than or equal to (>=) 20 mmHg or in diastolic BP of >=10 mmHg, or pulse rate increase >=30 bpm.
  • Participant has history of extrahepatic disorders possibly related to etiology of cirrhosis (e.g., nephrotic syndrome, any type of glomerulonephritis, polyarteritis nodosa, uncontrolled hypertension) (for participants with hepatic impairment).
  • Participant has a history of liver or other solid organ transplant including transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement (for participants with hepatic impairment).
  • Participant has evidence of acute viral hepatitis within 30 days before dosing with study drug.( for participants with hepatic impairment)
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive participants are allowed to be enrolled if Hepatitis B virus (HBV) Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is below 1000 copies per milliliter in the plasma, at Screening. Participants with HI who are positive for hepatitis C virus antibodies (HCVAb) can be enrolled but must not have detectable hepatitis C virus antibodies (HCV) Ribonucleic acid (RNA) on reflex testing, at Screening (for participants with hepatic impairment).
  • The participant has a positive test result for HBsAg or Hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) at Screening or within 3 months prior to administration of the study intervention dose (for participants with normal hepatic function).
  • The participant has a positive hepatitis C antibody test result at Screening or within 3 months prior to the administration of the study intervention dose (for participants with normal hepatic function).
  • Participant has regular alcohol consumption within 6 months prior to the study, defined as an average weekly intake of >14 units for males and females. One unit is equivalent to 8 grams (g) of alcohol: a half-pint (approximately 240 milliliters [mL]) of beer, 1 glass (125 mL) of wine or 1 (25 mL) measure of spirits.
  • Participant has clinically significant cardiac disease, including second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, clinically significant tachyarrhythmias, or atrial fibrillation/flutter.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  2. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity AUC(0-inf)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  3. Maximum plasma unbound concentration (Cmax,u)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  4. Area under the unbound plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUC[0-inf],u)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Time to maximum observed plasma drug concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  2. Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve from time 0 to 48 hours post-dose administration (AUC[0-48])

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  3. Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve from time 0 to time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC[0-last])

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  4. Terminal elimination rate constant

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  5. Apparent terminal phase half-life (t1/2)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  6. Apparent clearance (CL/F)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  7. Apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F)

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  8. Regression coefficient Between Pharmacokinetic Parameters and Measures of Hepatic Function

    The relationship between PK parameters and measures of hepatic function will be evaluated using regression analyses. Regression coefficients will be summarized to describe the direction and magnitude of the relationship. A positive regression coefficient indicates that an increase in the hepatic function parameter is associated with an increase in the PK parameter, whereas a negative regression coefficient indicates that an increase in the hepatic function parameter is associated with a decrease in the PK parameter. A regression coefficient close to zero suggests little or no linear relationship between the hepatic-function measure and the PK parameter. Unit of measure: unitless (will be reported as a regression coefficient).

    Measured: Up to 936 hours

  9. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) by severity

    Measured: Up to 40 days

  10. Number of participants with clinically significant changes in clinical laboratory parameters, physical examinations, Electrocardiogram (ECG) and vital signs

    Measured: Up to 40 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Velzatinib in people with Healthy Participants and Gastrointestinal Neoplasms, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact US GSK Clinical Trials Call Center (877-379-3718, GSKClinicalSupportHD@gsk.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Up to 936 hours). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 6 Oct 2026.
