A Study of Subcutaneous Gefurulimab Using Prefilled Syringe Versus Autoinjector in Healthy Adult Participants

This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, immunogenicity, and device performance of gefurulimab.

This is an open-label, randomized, parallel-group study.

The study consists of 2 periods: a Screening Period (up to 70 days), and an Evaluation Period of 92 days.

Separate randomization lists will be produced for each weight stratum (50 to \< 70 kg, 70 to \< 90 kg, and 90 to \< 110 kg) and within each of the three weight strata, participants will be randomized 1:1:1:1:1:1 to one of the six combinations of device (prefilled syringe with needle safety device \[PFS-SD\] or autoinjector \[AI\]) and injection site (abdomen, thigh, or upper arm),

Participants will receive a single dose of 600 mg gefurulimab on Day 1, will be residential at the clinical unit until Day 5, will have visits on Day 8, quaque week (once a week) \[qw\] thereafter until Day 50, and quaque 2 week (once every two weeks) \[q2w\] from Day 50 until Day 92 during the Evaluation Period.

The total study duration is up to 162 days.

Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Participants must be 18 to 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.

3. Participants who are healthy as determined by medical evaluation with no clinically significant or relevant abnormalities as determined by medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, and clinical laboratory evaluation.
4. QT interval corrected using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≤ 450 msec for male participants and ≤ 460 msec for female participants at Screening and prior to dosing on Day 1.
5. Documented vaccination against meningococcal infection from serogroups A, C, W, and Y and serogroup B.
6. Male and female participants should adhere to study-specific contraceptive methods.

Exclusion Criteria:

5. Allergy to monoclonal antibodies.
6. Clinically significant multiple or severe drug allergies, intolerance to topical corticosteroids, or severe posttreatment hypersensitivity reactions.
7. Lymphoma, leukemia, or any malignancy within the past 5 years except for basal cell or squamous epithelial carcinomas of the skin that have been resected with no evidence of metastatic disease for 3 years.
8. Current or chronic history of liver disease.
9. Known hepatic or biliary abnormalities.
10. Active systemic bacterial, viral, or fungal infection within 14 days prior to dosing.
11. History of allergy or intolerance to penicillin or cephalosporin.
12. History of clinically significant allergic reaction (eg, anaphylaxis or angioedema) to any product.
13. Live vaccine(s) within 1 month prior to Screening or plans to receive such vaccines during the study.
14. Evidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (positive HIV type 1 or type 2 antibody).
15. Evidence of hepatitis B infection (positive hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\] or positive total hepatitis B core antibody \[HBcAb\] with negative surface antibody \[anti-HBs\]), or hepatitis C viral infection (positive HCV RNA).
16. Female participants who have a positive pregnancy test at Screening or Admission.
17. Positive prestudy drug/alcohol screen; positive result may be repeated once.
