Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the bioavailability of teduglutide administered as a single subcutaneous (SC) fixed dose (depending upon participant weightband assignment) delivered by a syringe injection and the same fixed dose delivered by the pen injector in healthy participants.

Detailed description

This is a 2-period crossover study and consists of two cohorts. Cohort 1 consists of participant's with greater than or equal to (\>=) 40.0 kilogram (kg) to lesser than or equal to (\<=) 75.0 kg of weight and Cohort 2 consists of participant's with greater than (\>) 75.0 kg to \<= 120.0 kg of weight. Participants in each cohort will be randomized to 1 of 2 treatment sequences AB or BA. Randomization will be stratified by injection site (i.e., thigh, abdomen, and arm) within each cohort.

Interventions

DRUGTeduglutide

Participants received 3 mg or 4 mg of Teduglutide SC syringe injection followed by pen injector or vice versa depending upon the treatment sequence AB or BA on Day 1 of Treatment Periods 1 and 2.

DEVICESyringe Injection

Teduglutide was administered using syringe.

DEVICEPen injector

Inclusion criteria

* An understanding, ability, and willingness to fully comply with study procedures and restrictions. * Ability to voluntarily provide written, signed, and dated informed consent and assent as applicable to participate in the study. * Aged 18 - 45 inclusive at the time of consent. The date of signature of the informed consent is defined as the beginning of the screening period. This inclusion criterion will only be assessed at the first screening visit. * Male, or non-pregnant, non-lactating female who agrees to comply with any applicable contraceptive requirements of the protocol or females of non-childbearing potential. * Considered healthy by the investigator. Healthy status is defined by absence of evidence of any active or chronic disease following a detailed medical and surgical history, a full physical examination including vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), hematology, coagulation (as appropriate), serum chemistry, and urinalysis. * Body mass index (BMI) \>= 18.0 and l\<=32.0 kilogram per square meter (kg/m\^2) at screening. Body weight for a participant in Cohort 1 will be \>= 40.0 kg to \<= 75.0 kg, and body weight for a participant in Cohort 2 will be \> 75.0 kg to \<= 120.0 kg, inclusive. This inclusion criterion will be assessed at the screening visit and confirmed at first check-in.

Exclusion criteria

* History of any hematological, hepatic, respiratory, cardiovascular, renal, neurological or psychiatric disease, gall bladder removal, or current or recurrent disease that could affect the action, absorption, or disposition of the investigational product, or clinical or laboratory assessments. * Current or relevant history of physical or psychiatric illness, any medical disorder that may require treatment or make the participant unlikely to fully complete the study, or any condition that presents undue risk from the investigational product or procedures. * Positive PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), either with the absence or presence of the clinical symptoms of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). * Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity to teduglutide, closely-related compounds, or any of the stated ingredients. * Significant illness, as judged by the investigator, within 2 weeks of the first dose of teduglutide. * Known history of alcohol or other substance abuse within the last year prior to screening. * Donation of blood or blood products (e.g. plasma or platelets) within 60 days prior to receiving the first dose of teduglutide. * Pregnant or lactating female. * Within 30 days prior to the first dose of teduglutide: 1.
