Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate different solutions used to inject drugs under the skin. The solutions used in the study do not contain the drugs they will be used for, but they do contain excipients, which are inactive substances added to drug solutions to ensure the stability (shelf life and correct activity) of the drug product. The excipients are considered 'inactive substances' compared to the drug, but they may cause an undesirable effect at the injection site in the form of pain. However, their pain-causing potential has never been tested in a systematic way. The purpose of the study is to determine if there is a difference in the injection site pain experience after an injection under the skin (subcutaneous) with 12 different study products. These study products are excipient solutions, which are substances in medications next to the active substance. None of the 12 products include active medication. This study will be performed in 108 healthy male and female volunteers.
