Participant Flow

In this trial 324 healthy subjects were randomized into 3 arms.

All subjects were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Subjects attended specialist sites which would then ensure that they (the subject) met all strictly implemented inclusion/exclusion criteria. Subjects were not randomised to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria were violated.

Timeframe: Day 1 through Day 71

Population: The safety analysis set consisted of all subjects who received the single dose of trial medication (BI 695501, US-licensed Humira® or EU-approved Humira®).

All events with an onset after the first administration of the trial medication up to a period of 70 days after the last administration of the trial medication (i.e., end of the REP) was assigned to the treatment phase for evaluation and was defined as a treatment-emergent AE (TEAE). A treatment-related AE was defined as any TEAE assessed by the investigator as related to the trial medication. All safety data were displayed and analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. No formal inferential analyses were planned for safety comparisons. Tabulations of frequencies and proportions, as appropriate were used for the evaluation of categorical (qualitative) data, and tabulations of descriptive statistics were used to analyze continuous (quantitative) data.
