Subjects receiving GSK958108 + placebo in cohort 1
Subjects receiving GSK958108 + placebo in cohort 2
Eligible subjects will receive GSK958108 with a starting dose of 1 milligram. The dose escalation will be continued up to 4 ascending doses. Subjects will also receive placebo. Each treatment period will be separated by at least 7 days washout period.
Eligible subjects will start dosing once the cohort 1 has completed the treatment phase and the initial dose will be the same as top dose in Cohort1.The dose escalation will be continued up to 4 ascending doses. Subjects will also receive placebo. Each treatment period will be separated by at least 7 days washout period.
