A Phase 1 interventional study of GSK615915A and Placebo in Bronchospasm, sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline. Completed at 1 site in United Kingdom. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 60 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-09-29.

GSK615915A is being developed as a novel surfactant for use in the formulation of GSK's future generation of Metered Dose Inhalers (MDIs). A surfactant in a MDI would provide a more stable drug suspension, this in turn will produce a consistent dose of drug being delivered with each puff.
44 studies on the registry are indexed under Bronchial Spasm; 4 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 46 is below the median of 70 across 29 interventional studies indexed under Bronchial Spasm.

The subject must be clinically stable The subject has a baseline = 80% of predicted.
Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
From a breathing test (spirometry): how much air you can blow out in the first second. Often given as a percentage of what is expected for your age, height and sex.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
