This is Phase I, 4-period, randomized, active-and placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover, single-dose study to evaluate the effects of a therapeutic (1000 milligram [mg]) and supratherapeutic (1800 mg) dose of GSK2140944 with a positive control (moxifloxacin 400 mg) and placebo on the corrected QT interval (QTc) as assessed by continuous 12-lead Holter electrocardiograms (ECGs) in approximately 55 healthy volunteers.
All subjects will receive single doses of GSK2140944 1000 mg, GSK2140944 1800 mg, moxifloxacin 400 mg, and placebo in a randomized sequence. A double-dummy approach will be used to maintain blinding. Thus, on each dosing day, moxifloxacin or moxifloxacin placebo and GSK2140944 or placebo will be administered.
Subjects will be screened within 30 days prior to entry to the clinic. Subjects will report to the clinical unit on Day -2 of Period 1 and on Day -1 in subsequent periods. Subjects will remain confined until check out procedures have been completed on Day 3 (5 days confinement in Period 1 and 4 days in the following 3 periods). There will be a washout of at least 7 days between doses. The follow-up visit will occur 7-10 days after the final dose. Total duration of the study (from screening to the follow-up visit) will be approximately 60 days.

Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of postmenopausal status prior to study enrolment.
- Reproductive potential and agrees to follow one of the options listed below in the GSK Modified List of Highly Effective Methods for Avoiding Pregnancy in Females of Reproductive Potential (FRP) requirements from 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug and until at least 7 days after the last dose of study drug and completion of the follow-up visit.

- These allowed methods of contraception are only effective when used consistently, correctly and in accordance with the product label. The investigator is responsible for ensuring that subjects understand how to properly use these methods of contraception.
- Capable of giving signed informed consent as described in protocol, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form and in the protocol
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and bilirubin <1.5 × upper limit of normal range (ULN). Isolated bilirubin >1.5 × ULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%. One repeat test to confirm result is acceptable.

- An abnormal finding of clinical significance in the arrhythmia detection Holter performed on Day -2, which in the view of the investigator would compromise subject safety or interfere with study procedures or assessments will be excluded from the study. Full disclosures will be reviewed in detail and the review maintained as part of the subject's source documents. Analysis of the Holter recordings will consider the following:
- Heart rate (significant brady- or tachycardia, based on investigator's judgment)
- Reports of symptomatic arrhythmia (except isolated extrasystoles)
- Normal and aberrant beats
- Number of supraventricular contractions, premature atrial contractions, premature ventricular contractions, couplets, triplets, and ventricular tachycardias
- Atrioventricular conduction defects

- Participation in a clinical trial in which the subject has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 30 days, 5 half-lives, or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer).
- Exposure to more than 4 new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.
