Study of the Effect of a 5-Day Regimen of Study Drug on Peripheral Stem Cell Mobilization in Healthy Participants

A Single-Arm Study of the Effect of a 5-day Regimen of Tbo-Filgrastim 10 mcg/kg of Body Weight Administered Subcutaneously on Peripheral Stem Cell Mobilization in Healthy Donors

A multi-center, open-label, single-arm clinical study to assess effects of a 5-day regimen of 10 micrograms per kilogram (mcg/kg) of tbo-filgrastim administered subcutaneously daily on the mobilization of cluster of differentiation 34+ (CD34+) cells in at least 60 healthy male and female participants. The pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of tbo-filgrastim will be assessed.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Women may be included only if they have a negative beta human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) test at baseline, are sterile (defined as documented hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy, or congenitally sterile), or postmenopausal (defined as no menses for 12 months without alternative medical cause and increased follicle stimulating hormone [FSH] of above 35 units per liter [U/L] in women not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy). Women of childbearing potential whose male partners are potentially fertile (that is, no vasectomy) must use highly effective birth control methods for the duration of the study and for 30 days after the last tbo-filgrastim administration

• The participant has taken any of the following investigational medicinal products (IMPs), medicinal products, or substances:

  1. Any IMP within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) before the first dose of tbo-filgrastim, or in the case of a new chemical entity, 3 months or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) before the first dose of tbo-filgrastim
  2. Known history of treatment with blood-cell colony-stimulating factors
  3. Current or recent (within 4 weeks) treatment with lithium

• The participant has donated plasma within 7 days before screening or has donated blood within 56 days before screening

• The participant has a documented or self-reported history of tuberculosis or recent travel to countries of endemic disease (last 8 weeks)

• The participant has 1 or more clinical laboratory test value(s) outside the range specified below, or any other clinically significant laboratory abnormality as determined by the investigator or medical monitor:

  1. Hemoglobin less than or equal to (<=) 12.5 grams per deciliter (g/dL) (women) and hemoglobin <=13.5 g/dL (men)
  2. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) values of greater than (>) 3 * the upper limit of the normal range (ULN)
  3. Total bilirubin of >2 * ULN
  4. Findings of cholestasis (eg, abnormal values of alkaline phosphatase)

• The participant has a positive test result for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen, antibodies to hepatitis C virus, immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies to cytomegalovirus, human T-lymphotropic virus, West Nile virus, malaria, or syphilis
