Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic of Recombinant Anti-IL-1β Humanized Monoclonal Antibody Injection

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Parallel Trial of Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic of Recombinant Anti-IL-1β Humanized Monoclonal Antibody by Single Subcutaneous Injection in Healthy Subjects

This study is Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic of Recombinant anti-IL-1β Humanized Monoclonal Antibody injection in Healthy Subjects. Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Anti-drug antibody (ADA) data will be collected; Drug safety, tolerability and immunogenicity for healthy subjects will be evaluated.

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel trial of safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic of Recombinant anti-IL-1β Humanized Monoclonal Antibody by single subcutaneous injection with five different doses in healthy subjects. There are 5 groups as follows: 0.03mg/kg (S1), 1.0mg/kg (S2), 3.0mg/kg (S3), 6.0mg/kg (S4) and 10.0mg/kg (S5); and 2 subjects were included in the S1 group (both received study drugs); 8 subjects were included in each of the S2 ~ S5 groups (of which 6 received study drugs and 2 received placebo). In each group, two subjects were sentinels (1 received the study drug and 1 placebo). Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Anti-drug antibody (ADA) data will be collected; Drug safety, tolerability and immunogenicity for healthy subjects will be evaluated.
