Brief Summary

This study has been designed as a multicentre, randomised, open label study of AVT02 in healthy adult subjects. The study will assess the PK, safety and tolerability of AVT02 in Pre-Filled Syringe compared to AVT02 in Autoinjector Pen. Both arms will use single dose of 40mg of AVT02 (Adalimumab)

Detailed Description

This study is designed as a multi-center, randomized, open-label, 2-arm parallel study of AVT02 administered via a PFS either manually via an autoinjector, in healthy adult subjects.

A total of 204 subjects will be recruited into this study and will be randomly assigned with a ratio of 1:1 to receive either AVT02 manually or via autoinjector. As the study is open-label, both the site staff and the subjects themselves will know which treatments are being administered.

The study consists of a screening period, admission and treatment period, assessment period and end of study (EOS) visit. Subjects will undertake a screening visit between Day -28 and Day -1 to determine eligibility in the study. Those subjects that meet the eligibility criteria will be admitted to the study site on the evening prior to dosing (Day -1) when continued eligibility will be assessed.

On Day 1 prior to dosing, baseline assessments will be performed. Subjects will then be dosed according to the randomization schedule. Following dosing, PK, safety, tolerability and immunogenicity assessments will be performed according to the study schedule (Table 6). Subjects will remain confined to the study site from Day -1 to Day 3 (48 hours post-dose). Subjects will return to the study site on Day 4, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7, Day 8, Day 9, Day 12, Day 15, Day 22, Day 29, Day 36, Day 43, Day 50 and Day 57.

An EOS visit will occur at study Day 64 for final study assessments. The EOS visit will also be the early termination visit if required (to be completed within 7 days of early termination wherever possible).

  • Male subjects and their female spouse/partners who are of childbearing potential must agree to using 2 forms of birth control (1 of which is a highly effective method and 1 must be a barrier method), or agree to sexual abstinence, starting at screening and continue throughout the study period up to the EOS visit;
  • Male subject must not donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study period up to the EOS visit;

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area under the plasma concentration-time curve AUC0-infFrom baseline to day 64

Venous blood samples will be collected for measurement of Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC 0-t) of AVT02 given in PFS and AVT02 given in autoinjector

Maximum serum concentrationFrom baseline to day 64

Venous blood samples will be collected for measurement of Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC 0-t) of AVT02 given in PFS and AVT02 given in autoinjector

Area under the plasma concentration-time curve AUC0-tFrom baseline to day 64

Venous blood samples will be collected for measurement of Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC 0-t) of AVT02 given in PFS and AVT02 given in autoinjector

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pain, Tenderness, Erythema and SwellingFrom baseline to day 64

The injection sites will be monitored for pain, tenderness, erythema and swelling. Each injection site reaction will be categorised using the Injection Site Intensity Grading Scheme. All four outcome measures mentioned in the title will be measured from this one scheme. According to the Intensity Grading Scheme, the Pain, Tenderness, Erythema and Swelling will be measured as Absent (0), Mild (1), Moderate Severe(3) and Potentially Life Threatening.

Anti Drug Antibodies (ADRs)From baseline to day 64

Immunogenicity response will be determined from all patients treated with AVT02 from baseline to day 64 with a validated assay. Immunogenicity results (number of positive tested subjects/number of negative tested subjects; titer) will be summarized by treatment group (prefilled syringe group vs. autoinjector group). Immunogenicity assessments include antidrug antibodies (ADAs) and neutralizing antibodies (NAbs).

Adverse EventsBaseline to day 84

Adverse events will be coded using MedDRA and grouped by system organ class and preferred term and summarised, by treatment group at the time of onset of the AE. The summary tables will present the number and percentage of total subjects and number of events, by system organ class and by preferred term. Injection related reactions will be listed and summarised by reaction using frequency counts and percentage, by treatment group
