Inclusion criteria

  • Healthy male subjects
  • Have a body weight over 50.0 kg and a over than 18.5 and less than 30.0 kg/m², inclusive.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any abnormality or abnormal laboratory test results found during medical screening or positive test for , , or found during medical screening.
  • Positive urine drug screen or alcohol breath test at screening.
  • History of allergic reactions to trastuzumab, benzyl alcohol, murine proteins, or other related drugs.
  • Any reason which, in the opinion of the Qualified Investigator, would prevent the subject from participating in the study.
  • Clinically significant (ECG) abnormalities or vital sign abnormalities (systolic blood pressure lower than 90 or over 140 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure lower than 50 or over 90 mmHg, or heart rate less than 50 or over 100 bpm) at screening.
  • History of significant alcohol abuse within one year prior to screening or regular use of alcohol within six months prior to the screening visit (more than fourteen units of alcohol per week [1 unit = 150 mL of wine, 360 mL of beer, or 45 mL of 40% alcohol]).
  • History of significant drug abuse within one year prior to screening or use of soft drugs (such as marijuana) within 3 months prior to the screening visit or hard drugs (such as cocaine, phencyclidine [PCP], and crack) within 1 year prior to screening.
  • Use of trastuzumab or another monoclonal antibody for a medical condition or in the context of another clinical trial.
  • Participation in a clinical research study involving the administration of an or marketed drug or device within 30 days prior to dosing, administration of a biological product in the context of a clinical research study within 90 days prior to dosing, or concomitant participation in an investigational study involving no drug or device administration.
  • Use of medication other than topical products without significant systemic absorption:

    1. prescription medication within 14 days prior to dose administration;
    2. over-the-counter products including natural health products (e.g. food supplements and herbal supplements) within 7 days prior to dosing, with the exception of the occasional use of acetaminophen (up to 2 g daily);
    3. a depot injection or an implant of any drug within 3 months prior to dose administration.
  • Donation of plasma within 7 days prior to dosing. Donation or loss of blood (excluding volume drawn at screening) of 50 mL to 499 mL of blood within 30 days, or more than 499 mL within 56 days prior to dosing.
  • \<128 g/L and hematocrit \<0.37 L/L at screening.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(8)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

BMI (body mass index)

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.

What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. AUC0-inf: area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity

    Time frame: 43 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. AUC0-t: area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the last non-zero concentration

    Time frame: 43 days

  2. Cmax: maximum observed concentration

    Time frame: 43 days

  3. Tmax: time of observed Cmax

    Time frame: 43 days

  4. Kel: apparent terminal elimination rate constant

    Time frame: 43 days

  5. T½ el: apparent terminal half-life

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 21, 2017, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
