Study Description

Brief Summary:

Impaired physical function and muscle dysfunction are a major consequence of COPD, which may be associated with increased mortality, poor quality of life and increased health care use. This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel group study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GSK2881078, an SARM over 13 weeks of dosing in older male subjects and post-menopausal female subjects with COPD and muscle weakness. This study will also assess the effect of GSK2881078 on physical strength and function after 13 weeks of treatment. Approximately 100 subjects with COPD and muscle weakness will be randomized into two cohorts of 50 male subjects and 50 female subjects. Within each cohort, subjects will be randomized to receive GSK2881078 or placebo in a ratio of 1:1. All subjects will participate in a standardized home exercise program, which will consist of daily walking, along with several resistance or weight-bearing exercises, such as bicep curls, upright rows, step ups and a sit-to-stand maneuver. The study will consist of a screening/Baseline period of up to 30 days, a 13-week treatment period and a post-treatment follow-up period of 6 weeks.

It consisted of 9-item daily assessments covering 2 different domains (amount and difficulty). The 'amount' domain was covered by 2 questions combined with 2 activity monitor outputs. The 'difficulty' domain was covered by 5 questions. Individual domains were scored by simple adding items, gave raw score values 0 to 17 for 'amount' and 0 to 20 for 'difficulty'. The raw scores were then transformed to a 0 to 100 Rasch analysis based scale for each domain. Higher scores indicated worse experience with physical activity. Baseline was the average of the data collected from the 7-day period after dispensing of the device on Day -9. Change from Baseline was calculated as post-dose visit value minus the Baseline value. Adjusted means and SE are presented for averaged weekly difficulty score.

Total score was calculated by summing the weight to all the positive responses in each component. Total score has the range from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicated more severe disease impact. Day 1 (Pre-dose) was considered as a Baseline. Analysis was performed using ANCOVA model. Change from Baseline was calculated as post-dose visit value minus the Baseline value.

Symptoms component consisted of questions 1 to 7 in Part 1. Symptoms score has the range from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicated more severe disease impact. Day 1 (Pre-dose) was considered as a Baseline. Analysis was performed using ANCOVA model. Change from Baseline was calculated as post-dose visit value minus the Baseline value.

    FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. FEV1 measurements were collected using a spirometer. Baseline was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits. Change from Baseline was calculated as post-dose visit value minus the Baseline value.
35. Change From Baseline in Sniff Nasal Inspiratory Pressure (SnIP) [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1, Pre-dose), Days 56 and 90 ]
