First Human Dose Trial of NNC0215-0384 in Subjects With Rheumatoid Arthritis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to describe the safety and tolerability of single intravenous (i.v.) and subcutaneous (s.c.) doses of NNC0215-0384 in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on background methotrexate (MTX) treatment.
