- Conditions
- Breast Cancer
- Interventions
- Drug: 420 mg EG1206A EirGenix Pertuzumab in 14 mL Injection
- Registration Number
- NCT05471648
- Lead Sponsor
- EirGenix, Inc.
- Brief Summary
- This trial is a single-center, single-dose, double-blind, parallel-group, randomized, 3-arm PK trial in healthy male volunteers comparing a biosimilar pertuzumab (EG1206A) to a single intravenous (i.v.) infusion to both European Union (EU) and United States of America (US) reference products. 
- Detailed Description
- This trial is part of a clinical development program developing a biosimilar pertuzumab, comparing the PK, safety and tolerability and immunogenicity of pertuzumab after a single intravenous (i.v.) infusion. 
 It assess the bioequivalence, PK characteristics, safety and tolerability as well as the immunogenicity of a test preparation containing 420 mg pertuzumab (EG1206A EirGenix Pertuzumab) as compared to marketed reference (EU and US) after a single dose i.v. infusion over 60 minutes in fasted state.
