Official title: Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Two Dose Strengths of a Single Subcutaneous Dose of BI 655130 and One Single Intravenous Dose of BI 655130 in Healthy Male and Female Subjects (Open-label, Parallel Group Design)
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the relative bioavailability of BI 655130 following subcutaneous administration (Test, T) compared to BI 655130 following intravenous infusion (Reference, R).
The secondary objective is the evaluation and comparison of several pharmacokinetic parameters between all tested treatments.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing BI 655130 in people with Healthy, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 1 site in Belgium.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Mar 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of BI 655130 in Plasma Over the Time Interval From 0 to the Last Quantifiable Data Point (AUC0-tz) (time frame: Pharmacokinetic samples were collected at pre-dose and at 0.5, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 336, 504, 672, 840, 1008, 1344, 1680, 2184, 2856, 3528 and 4200 hours after drug administration.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03100903, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Oct 2025.
