An Investigation of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of GSK2245035 in Healthy Volunteers and Allergic Rhinitics.

Summary

GSK2245035 is a highly selective Toll-like Receptor 7(TLR7) agonist capable of preferentially inducing the production of interferon alpha (IFNα) versus tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα). The aim of this FTIH study is to collect tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) information to enable the identification of appropriate safe doses of intranasal (i.n) GSK2245035, associated with up-regulation of TLR7-mediated genes in the nasal milieu, for use in subsequent clinical drug development studies. There will be two parts to the study: Healthy Volunteers will be dosed in escalating single doses in Part 1, followed by Allergic Rhinitis (AR) subjects dosed similarly in Part 2.
