Rheumatoid Arthritis
Conditions
Brief summary
Primary Objective: Assess the comparative safety and tolerability of two SAR153191 (REGN88) drug products after a single dose administration in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Secondary Objective: Assess the comparative pharmacokinetic profiles of the two SAR153191 (REGN88) drug products after a single dose administration in rheumatoid arthritis patients.
Detailed description
