Key information

About this study

Volunteers will receive either one or the other agalsidase beta formulation. Drug will be administered as an intravenous 5h infusion. Plasma samples will be taken at different time points, from before infusion up to 12h later. Pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profile will be determined, and bioequivalence evaluated.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male subjects between the ages of 18 and 40
  • Body mass index (BMI) between 19 and 25 kg/m².

  • Subjects with systolic blood pressure higher than 110 mmHg and lower than 139 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure higher than 70 mmHg and lower than 89 mmHg with a heart rate higher than 50 and lower than 90 beats per minute after being seated for 5 minutes and, then, standing up (extreme values are included)
  • Volunteers who are well disposed to the study and have signed the approved informed consent prior to the start of the study

Exclusion criteria

  • History of clinically significant allergies (except for untreated asymptomatic seasonal allergies)
  • A drop of ≥ 20 mmHg of systolic blood pressure or ≥ 10 mmHg of diastolic blood pressure within the first 3 minutes after the postural change

  • Active or chronic infections
  • Having received live or inactivated viral or bacterial vaccines, within the fifteen days prior to visits 1 or 2
  • For COVID vaccines, a 15 day window period prior to visits #1 or #2 must be respected. This period was taken from the recommendations published by the National Ministry of Health on May 29th 2021. The volunteer will be able to receive the vaccine 35 days after receiving the investigational product.

  • Current clinical evidence of respiratory and cardiac disease
  • Presence of diabetes mellitus, thyroid dysfunction or other endocrine disorders
  • Evidence of active gastroduodenal disease
  • History of peripheral thrombotic phenomena
  • Underlying neurological disease
  • Presence of a current progressive chronic disease
  • History of drug or alcohol abuse or addiction within the last three years
  • Participation in a clinical study within the last three months
  • Use of any drug within the fourteen days prior to the start of the study that, according to the principal investigator's judgement may interfere with the biodistribution of the medicinal product.
  • Subjects who have donated or suffered from blood loss within the twelve weeks prior to the start of the study, or intends to donate blood within the following three months after the completion of the study.
  • Excessive drinker of tea, cocoa, mate, coffee and/or caffeinated drinks (>5 cups/day) or of wine (>0.5 L/day) or alcohol (>50 ml/day)
  • Significant abnormalities in the electrocardiogram
  • Positive PCR test for COVID-19
  • Positive serology for HIV, hepatitis B or hepatitis C
  • Abnormal clinical laboratory test results (that according to the principal investigator's judgement are considered clinically significant)
  • Uncooperative volunteers

Treatment and study plan

Agalsidase beta from Biosidus 1 mg/kg

Biological

Patients received an infusion of 1 mg/kg of Agalsidase Beta from Biosidus. Final infusion dose is achieved with lyophilized drug at concentration 35 mg and 5 mg

Fabrazyme (agalsidase beta) 1 mg/kg

Biological

Patients received an infusion of 1 mg/kg of Fabrazyme. Final infusion dose is achieved with lyophilized drug at concentration 35 mg and 5 mg

Primary outcomes

  1. Maximum Serum Concentration of Agalsidase Beta (Cmax)

    Time frame: 0, 1, 3, 5, 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 hours from the beginning of the infusion

    Compare the maximum serum concentration of two formulations of agalsidase beta after intravenous infusion of 1 mg/kg:

    • Fabrazyme (Sanofi-Genzyme) (Reference Formulation, "R")
    • Agalsidase beta from Biosidus SA (Test Formulation, "T")
  2. Area Under the Curve of Serum Concentration Between Times 0 and 12 Hours of Agalsidase Beta

    Time frame: 0, 1, 3, 5, 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 hours from the beginning of the infusion

    Compare the area under the curve between times 0 and 12 hours of two formulations of agalsidase beta after intravenous infusion of 1 mg/kg:

    • Fabrazyme (Sanofi-Genzyme) (Reference Formulation, "R")
    • Agalsidase beta from Biosidus SA (Test Formulation, "T")
  3. Time at Which Maximum Serum Concentration of Agalsidase Beta is Observed (Tmax)

    Time frame: 0, 1, 3, 5, 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 hours from the beginning of the infusion

    Compare the time at which maximum serum concentration of agalsidase beta is observed of two formulations of agalsidase beta after intravenous infusion of 1 mg/kg:

    • Fabrazyme (Sanofi-Genzyme) (Reference Formulation, "R")
    • Agalsidase beta from Biosidus SA (Test Formulation, "T")
  4. Area Under the Curve of Serum Concentration, Resulting From the Extrapolation From Time 0 to Infinite Time

    Time frame: 0, 1, 3, 5, 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 hours from the beginning of the infusion

    Compare the area under the curve of serum concentration, resulting from the extrapolation from time 0 to infinite time of two formulations of agalsidase beta after intravenous infusion of 1 mg/kg:

    • Fabrazyme (Sanofi-Genzyme) (Reference Formulation, "R")
    • Agalsidase beta from Biosidus SA (Test Formulation, "T")

Secondary outcomes

  1. Enzymatic Activity on Plasma Samples Measured With Fluorometric Method

    Time frame: Pre-infusion and 5 hours post administration (end of infusion)

    Comparison between enzymatic activity of both formulations of agalsidase beta, assessing the difference between the 5 hour timepoint and the basal determination, to estimate their biological activity as part of the pharmacodynamic analysis. A fluorometric assay will be used. The enzymatic activity will be measured in mU/ml.

    The variation of enzymatic activity between the sample taken at the end of the infusion (5 hours) and pre-infusion will be analyzed.

  2. Number of Patients With Adverse Events

    Time frame: From infusion to 35 days after

    Evaluation of the product safety with analysis of incidence of adverse events and tolerance.

  3. Number of Participants With Positive Results for the Presence of Neutralizing Antibodies Against Agalsidase Beta

    Time frame: 0 hours,12 hours and 35 days after the end of the infusion.

    The presence of neutralizing antibodies to agalsidase beta activity was analyzed in serum samples from 24 volunteers (0h, 12h and 35 days), by biological activity neutralization method.

    The percentage of inhibition in the samples was calculated by comparing the activity value of 1 ng of agalsidase beta alone with that of agalsidase treated with the serum samples. Those samples with percentage inhibition >50% were defined as positive.
