February 6, 2017 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

An Exploratory Study to Investigate the Effects of the NK1 Antagonist GW679769, 60 mg Once Daily for 4 Days, on Gastric Accommodation, Gastric Emptying and Gastric Distension-induced Perception and Discomfort in Adult Male and Female Patients With Functional Dyspepsia, in a Single Center, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Randomised, Two-period Crossover Study

This study was designed is to examine the idea that GW679769 has an effect on three of the pathophysiological disturbances reported in patients with Functional Dyspepsia (FD): impaired stomach accommodation to a meal, delayed stomach emptying, and visceral hypersensitivity to distension.
