A Pharmacokinetic Study Comparing MB02 And EU Avastin® In Healthy Male Volunteers

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2019-12-27
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Male

Summary

A Randomised, Double Blind, Two-Arm, Single Dose, Parallel Phase I Study To Compare the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Immunogenicity of MB02 (a Proposed Bevacizumab Biosimilar Drug) and EU Approved Avastin® in Japanese Healthy Male Volunteers.

During the course of the study, the similarity in pharmacokinetics will be assessed by sampling the levels of drug in the blood, and by comparing these levels among the different administration arms. Safety, tolerability, and immunologic response to the administered drugs will also be evaluated throughout.

4. Subject must have no clinically relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history.

5. Systolic blood pressure ≤140 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure ≤90 mm Hg.

6. Computerized (12-lead) electrocardiogram (ECG) recording without signs of clinically relevant pathology.

7. All other values for hematology, coagulation and for biochemistry and urinalysis tests of blood and urine within the normal range or showing no clinically relevant deviations as judged by the Investigator, according to the following laboratory values:

Adequate bone marrow function

• Creatinine: <1.5 mg/dL

• Urine dipstick for proteinuria <2+.

8. All intermittent medications should have been stopped at least 30 days prior to admission to the clinical research center.

9. Subjects agree to use contraception.

10. Ability and willingness to abstain from alcoholic beverages (alcohol) 48 hours prior to admission to the clinical research center.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of relevant allergy/hypersensitivity (including allergy to drug or its excipients).

2. Previous treatment with an anti VEGF antibody like bevacizumab or any other protein or antibody targeting the VEGF receptor.

3. History of bleeding disorders or protein C, protein S, and/or factor V Leiden deficiency.

4. Known history of clinically significant essential hypertension (subjects under any antihypertensive treatment included), orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells or blackouts for any reason, cardiac failure or history of thromboembolic conditions.

5. History of GI perforation, ulcers, gastro oesophageal reflux, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticular disease, diverticular disease, any fistulae, pulmonary hemorrhage (hemoptysis) or reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome.

6. Any out-of-range laboratory values considered clinically significant by the investigator.

7. Significant history or clinical manifestation of any metabolic, allergic, dermatological, hepatic, renal, haematological, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, respiratory, endocrine, or psychiatric disorder, as determined by the Investigator (or designee).

8. Any current or recent history of active infections, including localized infections. (Within 2 months prior Screening Visit for any serious infection which requires hospitalization or intravenous anti-infective, and within 14 days prior Screening Visit for any active infection which requires oral treatment). A negative result for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis B (Hep B), and hepatitis C (Hep C) is required for participation. If subject shows positive Hepatitis B test, but results are compatible with prior immunisation and not infection may be included at the discretion of the Investigator.

9. Clinically relevant history of alcoholism, addiction or drug/chemical abuse prior to Check-in, and/or positive urinary drug test screen and/or positive breath alcohol test at Screening or Check in. Average intake of more than 24 units of alcohol / wk. (1 unit of alcohol equals ~250mL of beer, 100mL of wine or 35mL of spirits). Positive urine drug screen (opiates, methadone, cocaine, amphetamines (including ecstasy or methamphetamines), cannabinoids, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants and phencyclidine).

10. Treatment with non-topical medications within 7 days prior to study drug administration, with the exception of hormonal contraceptives, multivitamins, vitamin C, food supplements and a limited amount of acetaminophen, which may be used throughout the study.

11. Participation in a clinical study involving administration of an investigational drug (new chemical entity) in the past 60 days prior to Check-in, or within 5 half lives of the investigational drug used in the study.

12. Subjects considered unsuitable for inclusion by the investigator (e.g., inability to understand and comply with the study requirements or presence of any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, would not allow safe participation in the study).

13. Strenuous exercise within seven days prior to admission to the clinical research center.

14. Significant or acute illness within 15 days prior to drug administration that may impact safety assessments per the judgement of the investigator.

15. Unsuitable veins for infusion and/or venepuncture.

16. History of, or planned surgery, including suturing, dental surgery or wound dehiscence within 30 days of dosing, or within 30 days of the last study visit. Presence of a nonhealing wound or fracture.

17. Medically significant dental disease or dental neglect with signs and or symptoms of local or systemic infection that would likely require a dental procedure during the course of the study.

18. Use or intend to use slow-release medications/products considered to still be active within 30 days prior to Check-in, unless deemed acceptable by the Investigator (or designee).
