- Relative oral bioavailability of GSK2944404 FDC to amlodipine and enalapril maleate tablets co-administered as assessed by composite of pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters. [ Time Frame: PK samples will be collected at Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.33, 1.66, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 144 hours post dose at each dosing session. ]PK parameters include: maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of amlodipine and enalapril in all treatments, area under the concentration-time curve from time zero (pre-dose) to last time of quantifiable concentration within a subject across all treatments (AUC[0-t]), and area under the concentration-time curve from time zero (pre-dose) extrapolated to infinite time (AUC [0-infinity]. Bioavailability is defined as the amount of drug available at the site of action after administration.

[ Time Frame: PK samples will be collected at Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.33, 1.66, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, and 48 hours post dose at each dosing session. ]PK parameters include: AUC (0-infinity), AUC (0-t), Cmax, time of occurrence of Cmax (tmax), percentage of AUC (0-infinity) obtained by extrapolation (percentage AUCex), last observed quantifiable concentration (Clast), and terminal phase half-life (t1/2).
- Composite of PK parameters for amlodipine and enalapril maleate following administration of GSK2944404 and co-administration of amlodipine and enalapril maleate as data permit. [ Time Frame: PK samples will be collected at Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.33, 1.66, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 144 hours post dose at each dosing session. ]PK parameters include: tmax, Clast, percentage AUCex, and t1/2.
- Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) as a measure of safety and tolerability. [ Time Frame: Up to 35 days. ]AEs will be collected from the start of Study Treatment and until the follow-up contact visit.
- Vital signs measurements to assess safety and tolerability. [ Time Frame: Up to 35 days. ]Vital signs include blood pressure and pulse rate measurement. Orthostatic (sitting in upright position) as well as supine vitals will be measured.
- Absolute values and change over time of Clinical laboratory parameters to assess safety and tolerability. [ Time Frame: Up to 35 days. ]Clinical laboratory parameters include: hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis and additional parameters.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 65 Years (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | Yes |
Inclusion Criteria
- Male or female aged between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
- Healthy as determined by a responsible and experienced physician, based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests and cardiac monitoring. A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameter(s) which is/are not specifically listed in the inclusion or exclusion criteria, outside the reference range for the population being studied may be included only if the Investigator, in consultation with the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Medical Monitor if required, agree and document that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures.
- Body weight >=50 kilograms (kg) and Body Mass Index within the range 19 to 32 kg/meter squared (m^2) (inclusive).
- A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of non-childbearing potential defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy [for this definition, "documented" refers to the outcome of the investigator's/designee's review of the subject's medical history for study eligibility, as obtained via a verbal interview with the subject or from the subject's medical records]; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone > 40 milli international unit (MlU)/ milliliter (mL) and estradiol < 40 picogram/mL (<147 picomoles/liter) is confirmatory]. OR Child-bearing potential with negative pregnancy test as determined by serum human chorionic gonadotropin test at screening or prior to dosing. Agrees to use one of the contraception methods for an appropriate period of time (as determined by the product label or investigator) prior to the start of dosing to sufficiently minimize the risk of pregnancy at that point. Female subjects must agree to use contraception until the follow-up contact visit. OR has only same-sex partners, when this is her preferred and usual lifestyle.
- Male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the contraception methods This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until the follow-up contact visit.
- Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.

- A positive test for human immuno virus antibody.
- Pregnant females as determined by positive serum hCG test at screening or at any other time points.
- Any subject with a systolic blood pressure <95 millimeter of mercury (mmHg) or with a recent history of postural symptoms.
- Orthostatic event at screening, defined as a symptomatic event (i.e. dizziness or any pre syncope or syncope) and a reduction in systolic blood pressure of 20mmHg or more and/or a reduction in diastolic blood pressure of 10 mmHg or more for standing versus supine measurement.
Other Exclusion Criteria
- Where participation in the study would result in donation of blood or blood products in excess of 500 mL within a 56 day period.
- Lactating females.
- The subject has participated in a clinical trial and has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 30 days, 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer).
- Exposure to more than four new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.
- Unable to refrain from the use of prescription or non-prescription drugs, including vitamins, herbal and dietary supplements (including St John's Wort) within 7 days (or 14 days if the drug is a potential enzyme inducer) or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study medication, unless in the opinion of the Investigator and GSK Medical Monitor the medication will not interfere with the study procedures or compromise subject safety.
- Subject is mentally or legally incapacitated.
- Positive carbon monoxide on admission to the Unit.
- Unable to refrain from consumption of red wine, seville oranges, grapefruit or grapefruit juice (and/or pummelos, exotic citrus fruits, grapefruit hybrids or fruit juices) from 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication.
