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.
