Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Participants With Adverse Events
90 days

Summary tables and listings will be provided for all reported adverse events, defined as adverse events that start on or after the first administration of study drug. The reported adverse event term will be assigned a standardized preferred term. Adverse events will be summarized based on the number and percentage of patients experiencing the event. In the event a patient experiences repeat episodes of the same adverse event, then the event with the highest severity grade and strongest causal relationship to study treatment will be used for purposes of incidence tabulations. All deaths will be reported in a patient listing, which will include the primary cause of death and the number of days between the date of the last dose of study drug and death.

Change from baseline of PASP under hypoxic conditions
Day 1 and Day 7

PASP is an indicator of cardiac hemodynamic status and is non-invasively estimated by echocardiography. Change from baseline in PASP under hypoxic conditions following 7 days of GSK2256294 15 milligrams (mg) once daily. Change from baseline was calculated as the Day 7 value minus the Day1 value.
