Healthy Volunteer
Conditions
Brief summary
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of subcutaneous lebrikizumab in healthy Japanese volunteers. Healthy Japanese and Caucasian volunteers will be randomized to receive a single subcutaneous dose of either lebrikizumab or placebo.
