A Study to Assess the Safety & Interaction Between GW679769, Dexamethasone, & Ondansetron When Taken by Healthy Adults

November 8, 2017 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

An Open-Label, Phase I Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetic Interaction Between Repeat Doses of Oral Casopitant and Intravenous and Oral Doses of Dexamethasone and Intravenous and Oral Doses of Ondansetron When Administered in Healthy Adult Subjects

GW679769 may affect liver enzymes that metabolize dexamethasone and ondansetron. This study is designed to test the safety and the extent of the GW679769 affect on dexamethasone and ondansetron levels in humans.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Subjects in Part A
In PART A, subjects received Regimen A: oral casopitant alone (150 mg once daily [QD] Day 1, 50 mg QD Days 2 and 3); Regimen B: oral dexamethasone (20 mg QD Day 1 and 8 mg twice daily [BID] Days 2 and 3) and intravenous (IV) ondansetron (32 mg single-dose Day 1); and Regimen C: oral casopitant as in Regimen A, IV ondansetron as in Regimen B and a lower dose oral dexamethasone than in Regimen B (12 mg QD Day 1, 8 mg QD Days 2 and 3).
Casopitant (GW679769) tablets will be available as white, film-coated tablets containing 50 mg of GW679769 as the mesylate salt for oral administration.
Dexamethasone will be available as 4 mg tablets for oral administration and injection for IV administration.
Ondansetron for oral use will be available as 8 mg tablets to be taken with 240 milliliters (mL) of water on an empty stomach. For IV use, ondansetron 32 mg will be infused intravenously over a period of 15 minutes.
Other Names:
  • GW679769 Oral Tablets
  • dexamethasone oral tablets & intravenous
  • ondansetron oral tablets & intravenous
Experimental: Subjects in Part B
In PART B, subjects received Regimen D: oral casopitant alone (150 mg QD Day 1, 50 mg QD Days 2 and 3); Regimen E: IV dexamethasone (8 mg single-dose Day 1 only) and oral ondansetron (8 mg BID Days 1 to 3); and Regimen F: oral casopitant regimen as in Regimen D, and IV dexamethasone and oral ondansetron as in Regimen E.
Casopitant (GW679769) tablets will be available as white, film-coated tablets containing 50 mg of GW679769 as the mesylate salt for oral administration.
Dexamethasone will be available as 4 mg tablets for oral administration and injection for IV administration.
Ondansetron for oral use will be available as 8 mg tablets to be taken with 240 milliliters (mL) of water on an empty stomach. For IV use, ondansetron 32 mg will be infused intravenously over a period of 15 minutes.
