Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to compare two different formulations of ixekizumab. One formulation (Reference) is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and one formulation (Test) is not approved. This study will compare how much of each formulation gets into the blood stream. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected. The study will last up to about four months for each participant.

Inclusion criteria

* Are healthy male or female participants, with chronic stable medical problems, that in the investigator's opinion will not place the subject at increased risk by participating in the study

Exclusion criteria

* Have a significant history of, or current, cardiovascular, respiratory, hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, endocrine, or hematologic disorders that in the opinion of the investigator poses an unacceptable risk to the participant if participating in the study * Are allergic or hypersensitive to the study medicine * Had a vaccination with a live vaccine within 12 months prior to the first check-in or intend to get a vaccine for tuberculosis within 12 months of completing treatment on this study * Have any type of hepatitis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, or other serious infection * Show evidence of active or latent tuberculosis (TB) * Presence of significant neuropsychiatric disorder or a recent history of depression * Have had any active or recent infection within 4 weeks of Day 1 that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose an unacceptable risk to the participant

Outcome results

Primary

Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Ixekizumab

PK: Cmax of ixekizumab was evaluated

Time frame: Predose, Day 3, Day 5, Day 8, Day 11, Day 15, Day 22, Day 29, Day 43, Day 57, Day 71 and Day 85 Post Dose

Population: Only participants who had all PK samples collected up to Day 85 or participants who had one missing PK sample after Day 15 but with at least 3 data points and R squared adjusted (Rsq adj) greater than (\>) 0.7 to calculate half-life parameter included in the analysis.
