Brief summary
Double-Blind, 3-Way Parallel Study to Compare the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of BMO-2 to EU and US Sourced Humira® Administered as a Single Dose (40 mg) Subcutaneous Injection in Healthy Adults.
Detailed description
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, 3-way parallel study in 270 healthy adult male and female subjects. During this study, the PK bioequivalence of BMO-2, containing 40 mg adalimumab, will be compared to EU licensed Humira® (EU-Humira® ) (40 mg) and US licensed Humira® (US-Humira® ) (40 mg). Randomization will be stratified by body weight (weight categories of 60.0-79.9 kg and 80.0-95.0 kg). After randomization, subjects will receive one of the following treatments: a single sc injection of 40 mg BMO-2, an equivalent sc injection of EU-Humira® (40 mg), or an equivalent sc injection of US-Humira® (40 mg). Volunteers participation in the study is expected to finish with the follow-up visit, scheduled 70 days after the injection of study drug.
Interventions
Volunteers randomized in Treatment A will receive a single subcutaneous injection of BMO-2 (40mg / 0.8mL).
Volunteers randomized in Treatment B will receive a single subcutaneous injection of EU-Sourced Humira (40 mg / 0/8 mL)
Volunteers randomized in Treatment C, will receive a single subcutaneous injection of US-sourced Humira (40 mg / 0.8 mL).

Inclusion criteria
* Weight: 60.0-95.0 kg. * Body mass index (BMI) : 19.0-30.0 kg/m2, inclusive * Medical history without major pathology. * Systolic blood pressure ≤150 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure ≤90 mmHg. * Computerized (12-lead) electrocardiogram (ECG) recording without signs of clinically relevant pathology * Nonsmoker or light smoker * Ability and willingness to abstain from alcohol from 48 h prior to drug administration and 48h prior to ambulatory visits, and during the stays in the clinical research center until discharge from the in-house period. * Fertile males and females participating in heterosexual sexual relations:willingness to use adequate contraception from screening until 90 days after the follow-up visit * Females must not lactate and must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and at admission * Differentiation of leukocytes, platelet count, hematocrit and hemoglobin results within the reference ranges. Minor deviations considered to lack any clinical relevance by the Principal Investigator can be accepted. * All other values for hematology and for biochemistry tests of blood and urine within the normal range or showing no clinically relevant deviations as judged by the Principal Investigator.
