Study to Assess GW642444 in Asthma Patients

Summary

This is a study of GW642444M, a long-acting beta 2 specific agonist. This study will examine GW642444M via the inhaled route and will assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of a single administration of three inhaled doses (25, 100 and 400 µg) of GW642444M in persistent asthmatics. This study will be a single-centre, placebo-controlled, dose-ascending, five-way crossover in 30 asthmatic patients. Key assessments: efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics will be assessed by measurement of FEV1, blood pressure, pulse rate, 12-lead ECGs, clinical laboratory safety tests, collection of adverse events and blood samples.
