Study summary

This is a single site, parallel randomized, double blinded comparison of the safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of a single 0.57 mg/kg dose of SYN060 to a single 0.57 mg/kg dose of adalimumab (Humira®) reference product from North American and European sources.

This is a single site, parallel randomized, double blinded comparison of the safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of a single 0.57 mg/kg dose of SYN060 to a single 0.57 mg/kg dose of adalimumab (Humira®) reference product from North American and European sources. The study is open to healthy individuals on no medications that might confound the results of this safety study.

A total of 90 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to from a centrally generated randomization schedule to SYN060 or adalimumab of American or European sources resulting in 30 subjects in each group.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. AUC0-last (area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the last non-zero concentration) and AUC0-inf (area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity)

    AUC0-last and AUC0-inf will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis fpr SYN060 to adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources.

    Time frame: 85 days

  2. Cmax (maximum observed concentration)

    Cmax will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

  3. Residual area (%AUCextrap) [percent extrapolated area under the curve to infinity calculated as 100*(1- AUC0-last / AUC0-inf)]

    Residual area (%AUCextrap) will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

  4. Tmax (time of observed Cmax)

    Tmax will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

  5. t½ (elimination half-life)

    t½ will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

    λz will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

  7. CL/F (apparent body clearance, calculated as Dose/AUC0-inf)

    CL/F will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

  8. Vz/F [apparent volume of distribution, calculated as Dose/ (λz x AUC0-inf)]

    Vz/F will be estimated using non-compartmental analysis for SYN060 and adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Time frame: 85 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Adverse event incidence of SYN060 compared to adalimumab (Humira®) from North American and European sources

    Safety monitoring will include vital signs (blood pressure, temperature, pulse, oximetry and respiration rates), physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG) and clinical laboratory tests (serum chemistry, hematology, troponins, creatinine phosphokinase \[CPK\], human anti-SYN060 antibodies, human anti-adalimumab antibodies and urinalysis). Adverse events will be recorded throughout the study and will be coded using the most current version of MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) at the time of study commencement.

    Time frame: 85 days

  2. anti-SYN060 antibodies

    The development of anti-SYN060 antibodieswill be determined on Study Days 0, and 7 through 85, or the last blood specimen available for subjects who leave the study prior to Day 85. The development of anti-SYN060 antibodies will be analyzed as a continuous measure across categorical groups and compared to anti-adalimumab antibodies with descriptive statistics.

    Time frame: 85 days

  3. anti-adalimumab antibodies

    The development of anti-adalimumab antibodies will be determined on Study Days 0, and 7 through 85, or the last blood specimen available for subjects who leave the study prior to Day 85. The development of anti-adalimumab antibodies will be analyzed as a continuous measure across categorical groups and compared to anti-SYN060 antibodies with descriptive statistics.

    Time frame: 85 days
