Albiglutide Thorough ECG Study in Healthy Volunteers

A Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel, Nested Crossover Study to Investigate the Effect of Albiglutide on Cardiac Repolarization (Corrected QT Interval) Compared With Placebo in Healthy Male and Female Subjects: A Thorough ECG Study Employing Placebo, Albiglutide, and a Positive Control (Moxifloxacin)

This study is designed to investigate the effect of treatment with albiglutide on the cardiac repolarization (corrected QT interval) in healthy male and female subjects. Moxifloxacin, a positive control, or moxifloxacin placebo will be given in order to validate the ability of the study to detect a change in the corrected QT interval.

This is a Phase I, randomized, double-blind study designed to investigate the effect of treatment with albiglutide given weekly over 6 weeks on the cardiac repolarization (corrected QT interval) in healthy male and female subjects. Moxifloxacin, a positive control, or moxifloxacin placebo will be given in order to validate the ability of the study to detect a change in the corrected QT interval.
