a trial with humanized tnfα monoclonal antibody injection by single dose and dose escalation in healthy subjects

Conditions: Rheumatoid Arthritis

Summary: this study is a randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled trial with healthy subjects. there are 6 groups as follows: 5mg, 15mg, 30mg, 50mg, 75mg, 100mg, and each group includes12 people. a single subcutaneous injection will be administrated starting from the low dose group (in accordance with 5mg, 15mg, 30mg, 50mg, 75mg, 100mg administered subcutaneously). pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics data will be collected; drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics characteristics will be analyzed. drug safety and tolerance for subjects will be evaluated.
