About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Single-dose, Parallel-group Design, 2 Arm Study Comparing the Pharmacokinetic, Pharmacodynamic, Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity Profiles of AVT03 and Prolia® in Healthy Male Subjects
This study has been designed as a randomized, double-blind, single-dose, parallel-group study in healthy adult male subjects 28 years to 55 years old. The study will assess the PK, PD, safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of AVT03 compared to Prolia when administered as a single SC dose.
Read the detailed description
The study will consist of a 4 week screening period, a 252 day (36 weeks) treatment and assessment period, and an End of Study (EOS) visit on week 36 on Day 252. Subjects will undertake a screening visit between Day -28 and Day -1 to determine their eligibility for the study. On Day 1, eligible subjects will be randomized and will receive a single dose of AVT03 or Prolia as subcutaneous injection.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing AVT03 and Prolia in people with Healthy Male Subjects, run by Alvotech Swiss AG at 4 sites in 3 countries.
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 3 inclusion and 7 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 29 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 4 sites in New Zealand, Australia, South Africa. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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 serum concentration-time curve (AUC0-last) from day 0 to day 252 (time frame: Day 1(week 1) to Day 252 (week 36)). The study lists 3 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 NCT05126784, 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 29 May 2024.
