Trial overview
Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Four-period Crossover Study to Investigate the Effect of Intravenous Ondansetron, a 5-HT3 Antagonist, on Cardiac Conduction as Compared to Placebo and Moxifloxacin in Healthy Adult Subjects
Trial description: Ondansetron, also known as Zofran, is a marketed compound used for the prevention of nausea and vomiting. This study, called a thorough QT study, will characterize the effects of a single intravenous (IV) dose of ondansetron on cardiac repolarization as compared to placebo. Moxifloxacin, a commercially available antibiotic known to cause a mild QT prolongation, will be used as a positive control and will be given orally. The cardiac repolarization will be measured by taking consecutive ECGs on a recording device known as a Holter monitor and measuring the QT interval at specified times. In addition, blood samples will also be taken at specified times and will be used to measure the amount of study medication in the body.

- Cardiac conduction abnormalities denoted by any of the following at screening:
- QTc interval > 450 msec; PR interval > 240 msec or less than or equal to 110 msec; evidence of second- or third-degree atrioventricular (AV) block; pathological Q-waves (defined as Q-wave > 40 msec or depth greater than 0.4 - 0.5 mV); evidence of ventricular pre-excitation; electrocardiographic evidence of complete left bundle branch block, right bundle branch block (RBBB), incomplete LBBB; intraventricular conduction delay with QRS duration > 120 msec; bradycardia as defined by sinus rate < 50 bpm.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Healthy adult men and women, non-smokers between 18 and 45 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent. Every effort will be made to enrol an approximately equal number of males and females.
- Signed and dated written informed consent prior to admission to the study, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.
- Healthy as judged by a responsible physician, with no clinically significant abnormality identified on the medical or laboratory evaluation performed at Screening, including 12-lead ECG. A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameters outside the reference range for this age group may be included only with the approval of the GSK medical monitor.
- ALT, alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5xULN (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%).
