Investigational On-body Injector Clinical Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical feasibility, performance, safety and acceptability of the On-body Injector (OBI) when applied to the arm or abdomen of healthy volunteers to inject placebo under the skin.

Detailed Description
This study is a monocentric, open-label, cross-over, feasibility and exploratory study with no acceptance criteria. Up to 70 healthy volunteers will be enrolled and followed up for 7 weeks at maximum.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: "In-Clinic wear first" Participant will wear the devices first during 27 hr in-clinic wear first followed by injection, then a short-term wear period in-clinic followed by injection, and finally at home for 27 hrs followed by injection. |
Device: In-clinic wear first
Participant will remain in clinic and wear devices adhered on abdomen or arm approximately 27hrs prior to injection
|
Experimental: "Home wear first" Participant will wear the devices at home first with return to clinic for injection, followed by a short-term wear period in-clinic for injection, and finally during a 27hr in-clinic stay for injection |
Device: Home wear first
Device will be applied to the abdomen or arm to deliver placebo subcutaneously. After device application, participant will go home and return to clinic before delivery.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Device Performance - Dose delivery efficiency [After device removal]
Determined by volume - measured via gravimetric analysis (weighing the device)
- Device Performance [From device application until 15-minutes after injection]
Change in adhesive pad adherence - device to skin/device to adhesive pad - determined via adherence scales (Score 0 - 4, whereby 0 is full adherence and 4 is reflecting full detachment)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Additional OBI performance - Injection signal/indicator performance [Before, during and after injection for each applied device; up to 28 hours after application]
Assessed by visual or audible observation from activation to injection end.
- Additional OBI performance - Catheter condition [Approximately 15-minutes after device removal]
Catheter bending assessment by grading
- Participant Pain [Immediately before device catheter is inserted, after insertion, during wear period, at start of injection, 15 minutes after injection, end of injection and upon removal for each applied device]
100mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain assessment - describing no pain with 0mm - up to worst possible pain described with 100mm
- Participant Acceptability Questionnaires [Device acceptability questionnaire will be completed after device catheter is inserted, at 8 hours and 26 hrs after application, during Injection and upon device removal]
Questionnaires to assess participants' acceptability of the device during wear
- Ultrasound Imaging of injection site [Baseline and immediately after procedure for each applied device]
Measure pre- and post-injection tissue thickness
- Tissue Effects [Baseline, immediately after procedure, follow up check up to 72 hours after injection in case tissue effects are present]
Assessment of wheal and erythema described via grading 0-4, incidence of bleeding, bruising, induration
- Adverse Events [Throughout study completion, an average of 4 week]
Incidence of adverse device effects and procedure related adverse events
