Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of the Interferon Beta-1a Produced by Laboratorio Quimico Farmaceutico Bergamo Compared to Interferon Beta-1a (Rebif - Merck Serono) in Healthy Subjects

The primary objective of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effect of two commercial preparations of interferon beta-1a (IFN Test: Lab Bergamo and IFN Comparator: Rebif ® - Merck Serono Lab) after single administration (12.000UI) in healthy subjects by modifying the parameters Cmax, Tmax and AUC (pharmacokinetics) and the levels of 2'5' oligoadenylate synthase and beta-2-microglobulin (pharmacodynamics).
