Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Ramucirumab is a biosimilar drug of CYRAMZA® produced by Chiatai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Nanjing Shunxin Pharmaceutical Co., LTD. It is a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) antagonist. This single-center, randomized, double-blind, single-dose, parallel phase I study of Ramucirumab injection versus Cyramza ® in healthy male volunteers was designed to evaluate the similarities in pharmacokinetics, tolerance, safety and immunogenicity of Ramucirumab and CYRAMZA®.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Ramucirumab injection

8mg/kg, Single intravenous infusion

Drug: Ramucirumab Injection
Ramucirumab injection biosimilar products manufactured by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical,

Active Comparator: Cyramza

8mg/kg, Single intravenous infusion

Drug: Ramucirumab Injection [Cyramza]
Ramucirumab Injection is a humanized monoclonal antibody based on the human immunoglobulin G1(IgG1) skeleton sequence, developed by Eli Lilly Co., the bran name is Cyramza. Ramucirumab is a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) antagonist that specifically binds to VEGF receptor 2 and blocks VEGFR ligand, VEGF-A, VEGF-C, and VEGF-D binding to the receptor. As a result, Ramucirumab inhibits ligand-stimulated VEGF receptor 2 activation, thereby inhibiting ligand-induced proliferation, and human endothelial cell migration. Ramucirumab inhibits angiogenesis, thereby blocking the tumor's blood vessel supply.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Area under drug concentration - time curve (AUC0-t) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    Area under the curve from zero to the lowest detectable blood drug concentration.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Area under drug concentration - time curve (AUC0-∞) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    The area under the curve extrapolating from zero to infinity.

  2. Peak concentration (Cmax) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    Peak maximum plasma drug concentration

  3. Peak concentration time (Tmax) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    Time to reach maximum plasma concentration after dosing

  4. Clearance rate (CL) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    Percentage of the organ-scavenging drugs that eliminated by the body

  5. Half-life (T1/2) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    The time it takes for serum drug concentrations to drop by half

  6. Apparent volume of distribution (Vd) [Within 60 minutes before administration to 1680 hours after administration.]

    Apparent volume of distribution after administration
