Abstract

Aims: GSK3358699 is a mononuclear myeloid-targeted bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) family inhibitor which demonstrates immunomodulatory effects in vitro. This phase 1, randomized, first-in-human study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of GSK3358699 in healthy male participants (NCT03426995). Methods: Part A (N = 23) included three dose-escalating periods of 1-40 mg of GSK3358699 or placebo in two cohorts in a single ascending-dose crossover design. Part C (N = 25) was planned as an initial dose of 10 mg of GSK3358699 or placebo daily for 14 days followed by selected doses in four sequential cohorts. Results: In part A, exposure to GSK3358699 and its metabolite GSK3206944 generally increased with increasing doses. The median initial half-life ranged from 0.7 to 1.1 (GSK3358699) and 2.1 to 2.9 (GSK3206944) hours after a single dose of 1-40 mg. GSK3206944 concentrations in monocytes were quantifiable at 1-hour post-dose following 10 mg of GSK3358699 and 1 and 4 hours post-dose following 20-40 mg. Mean predicted percentage inhibition of ex vivo lipopolysaccharide-induced monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 reached 75% with 40 mg of GSK3358699. GSK3358699 did not inhibit interleukin (IL)-6 and tumour necrosis factor (TNF). The most common adverse event (AE) was headache. Four AEs of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia were observed across parts A and C. One serious AE of atrial fibrillation (part C) required hospitalization. Conclusions: Single doses of GSK3358699 are generally well tolerated with significant metabolite concentrations detected in target cells. A complete assessment of pharmacodynamics was limited by assay variability. A causal relationship could not be excluded for cardiac-related AEs, resulting in an inability to identify a suitable repeat-dose regimen and study termination.
