Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Composite of plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) parameters of afuresertib, following administration with and without food
PK samples will be collected at Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-dose in each dosing period

Relative bioavailability of afuresertib after single dose of a GC, HPMC capsule and ECT, with and without high fat/calorie meal, will be determined by the following PK parameters: Area under the plasma concentration time curve- from time zero (pre-dose) to infinite time \[AUC(0-inf)\] and from time zero (pre-dose) to last time of quantifiable concentration \[AUC(0-t)\], maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax), time to Cmax (tmax), observed plasma concentration at 24 hours (C24), and minimal observed plasma concentration (Ct)

Secondary Endpoints

Safety and tolerability of afuresertib as assessed by number of subjects with adverse events (AEs)
Up to 9 weeks
Safety and tolerability of afuresertib as assessed by clinical laboratory tests
Up to 9 weeks
Safety and tolerability of afuresertib as assessed by concomitant medications review

Frequently asked questions about Afuresertib GC

What is Afuresertib GC?

Afuresertib GC is an investigational small molecule developed by GSK plc for cancer. It is a Phase 1 drug candidate studied in a bioavailability and food effect trial in healthy volunteers. It is not approved and remains in clinical development.

What does Afuresertib GC target?

Afuresertib GC targets AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3. It is an inhibitor of these AKT kinases, which are part of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway involved in cell growth and survival. Targeting AKT is being explored as an approach in oncology.

Who makes Afuresertib GC?

Afuresertib GC is developed by GSK plc, which trades under the ticker GSK. GSK is the sponsor of the clinical program evaluating this investigational AKT inhibitor in cancer.

What phase is Afuresertib GC in?

Afuresertib GC is in Phase 1 development. It is investigational and has not been approved for any indication. The Phase 1 program has completed one trial, and no active trials are currently listed.

What clinical trials is Afuresertib GC in?

Afuresertib GC has been studied in NCT01827644, a completed Phase 1 bioavailability and food effect trial of the original gelatin formulation and two new formulations. The trial enrolled 36 healthy volunteers in Australia and included a controlled, randomized design.

Is Afuresertib GC the same as Afuresertib GC Fasted State or Fed State?

Yes. Afuresertib GC is also referred to as Afuresertib GC Fasted State, Afuresertib GC Fed State, and variants with a hyphen. These names describe the fasting and fed conditions used in the bioavailability and food effect study of the same drug.
