Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Part A (Cohorts 1 - 5): Fasted
Cohort 1a: 0.5 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose (sentinel group of 2 subjects)
Cohort 1b: 0.5 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose
Cohort 2: 1.5 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose
Cohort 3: 5 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose
Cohort 4: 0.5 mg to 15 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose
Cohort 5: 0.5 mg to 30 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose

Cohort 1 will be conducted in two separate groups with a Sentinel group (Cohort 1a) of 2 subjects (1 active: 1 placebo) and Cohort 1b for the remaining 13 subjects (11 active: 2 placebo). Cohort 1a safety data up to and including Day 5 will support commencement of dosing (Day 1) for Cohort 1b.
Cohorts 4 and 5 dose will be decided based on available safety and PK and PD data from cohorts 1 - 3.

Part B (Cohort 6): Food Effect
Cohort 6 - Day 1: 0.5 mg to 30 mg GS-9688, oral tablet, single dose, fasted
Cohort 6 - Day 8: 0.5 mg to 30 mg GS-9688, oral tablet, single dose, fed state
(Part B dose will be determined based on safety and available PK and PD data from within Part A, Cohort 6 may be initiated in parallel with cohorts in Part A if the dose under evaluation is at or below a dose that has already been evaluated.)

Part C (Cohort 7): Adaptive Cohort
Cohort 7 - Day 1: 0.5 mg to 30 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose, fasted or fed state
Cohort 7 - Day 8: 0.5 mg to 30 mg GS-9688 or placebo, oral tablet, single dose, fasted or fed state
(Dose and mode of administration (fed or fasted) will be decided based on available safety and PK and PD data from Parts A and B)
GS-9688 dose will be at or below the highest dose from which data are available from Parts A and B.
Day 1 and day 8 dose will be the same and the same conditions will apply (fed or fasted).

*Fasted: no food or liquids, except water, for at least 10 hours prior to dosing
*Fed State: administered with a moderate fat meal (~ 600 kcal; 25-30% fat) and with 240 mL of water after an overnight fast (no food or liquids, except water for at least 10 hours).

The investigator will maintain an accurate inventory of all study drug(s). Each dose of the study drug(s) administered at the study center will be administered by qualified study center staff. The dose of study drug(s) administered to subjects in the clinic under the supervision of staff will be accurately recorded, which indicates the date and quantity of each dosage formulation dispensed to individual subjects.
Used and unused study drug supplies, including empty containers, are to be returned to the shipping facility from which it came for destruction following drug accountability and drug inventory reconciliation.
