A Bioequivalence Study Of Proposed Bevacizumab Biosimilar, Myl-14020 (A) Vs Eu-Avastin (B) And Us-Avastin (C).

e14034Background: MYL-1402O is a proposed bevacizumab biosimilar. The similarity of MYL-1402O to Avastin has been demonstrated in physicochemical analyses, and nonclinical studies. Methods: This single-center, randomized, double blind, three-arm, parallel-group, study was conducted in healthy adult male volunteers. The primary objective of this study was to establish PK similarity of A to B and C, and B to C. Subjects were randomized to receive either A, B or C 1 mg/kg over 90 minutes as an intravenous infusion. Dose was selected based on the lower dose in the linear range of PK and acceptable safety in healthy volunteers. Bioequivalence was to be concluded if the 90% CIs of the ratios (A/B, A/C and B/C) of LS means of the natural log transformed AUC0-inf were within 80% to 125%. AUC0-t, Cmax, tmax, kel and t½ were assessed as secondary PK parameters. Results: A total of 111 subjects (37/treatment) were enrolled and 110 [37 (A), 36 (B), 37(C)] were included in the analysis. Bioequivalence was demonstrated...
