Abstract
Objective: B01711 is a biosimilar of insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp 70/30). This randomized, open-label, single-dose, crossover, phase I study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of B01711 compared to its original product (Ryzodeg) in healthy Chinese volunteers.
Methods: The study was conducted between April and August 2022, this study included 32 participants (22 males and 10 females) who received subcutaneous injections of both B01711 and Ryzodeg, with a ≥14-day washout period between treatments. All participants completed the study without any dropouts. Blood samples were collected at pre-defined intervals for PK analysis.
Results: The primary PK parameters included the area under the curve (AUC) of insulin degludec (IDeg) from 0 to 24 hours (AUCIDeg, 0-24 h), AUC of insulin aspart (IAsp) from 0 to the time of the last measurable value (AUCIAsp, 0-t), and the peak concentration of IAsp (CIAsp, max). PK equivalence would be established if the 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of least squares (LS) mean ratios of log-transformed values of primary PK endpoints for B01711 compared with Ryzodeg fell within the range of 80.0% to 125.0%. Safety was monitored throughout the study. The LS-mean ratios and corresponding 90% CIs were 106.1% (101.9%, 110.5%) for AUCIDeg, 0-24 h; 103.9% (100.2%, 107.6%) for AUCIAsp, 0-t; and 110.1% (101.0%, 119.9%) for CIAsp, max. Two treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in two subjects (6.3%) in the B01711 group, and seven TEAEs were reported in seven subjects (21.9%) in the Ryzodeg group. The most common TEAE was a decrease in hemoglobin. The adverse events (AEs) of hypokalemia and hypoglycemia were identified as treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) and all TRAEs were mild.
Conclusion: This study demonstrated the PK equivalence of the two drugs and confirmed that both were well-tolerated.
