Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This single-center Phase 1 study in healthy male and female subjects of 18 to 55 years (inclusive) will follow an open-label, randomized, single-dose, crossover design with 2 intervention periods. The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the pharmacokinetic characteristics and the safety of single doses of pasireotide when administered subcutaneously by reusable ServoPen with cartridge or by syringe drawn from an ampule in healthy subjects.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study details include:

* The study duration will be approximately 6.5 weeks per subject.
* Two (2) intervention periods are planned per dose level (50 µg and 200 µg), with 1 of the following interventions administered per period:

* Single dose of 50 µg pasireotide administered subcutaneously using reusable ServoPen with cartridge.
* Single dose of 200 µg pasireotide administered subcutaneously using reusable ServoPen with cartridge.
* Single dose of 50 µg pasireotide administered subcutaneously using syringe drawn from an ampule.
* Single dose of 200 µg pasireotide administered subcutaneously using syringe drawn from an ampule.
* The screening examination will be performed within 28 to 2 days prior to the first administration of study intervention.
* Subjects will stay in-house for at least 3 days per period.
* The ambulatory follow-up visit will be performed within 7 to 10 days after the last administration of study intervention.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* A subject is eligible only if all of the following criteria apply:

1. Age of 18 to 55 years inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
2. BMI ≥18.5 kg/m2.
3. Male or female. Contraceptive use by men and women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.

a. Male subjects: Male subjects are eligible to participate if they agree to the following starting from the first administration of study intervention until the follow-up visit:

• Refrain from donating semen. Plus, either:

o Abstain from sexual intercourse with a partner of childbearing potential (definition in Section 10.5.1 of Study Protocol (SP)). OR

o During sexual intercourse with a partner of childbearing potential, use a male condom and counsel the partner to use a highly effective contraceptive method (definitions in Section 10.5.2 of SP).

b. Female subjects: A female subject is eligible to participate if she is neither pregnant nor breastfeeding, and one of the following conditions applies:

• Postmenopausal or has been sterilized more than 3 months ago (definitions in Section 10.5.1 of SP). OR

• Uses a highly effective (with a failure rate of \<1% per year) contraceptive method, preferably with low user dependency, as described in Section 10.5.2 during study participation and for at least 30 days after the last administration of study intervention and agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during this period. The Investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (e.g., noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention.

❑General Health Status
4. Overtly healthy as determined by medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, vital signs and ECG.
5. Clinically acceptable clinical laboratory test results.

❑Smoking
6. Non-smoker, which includes abstinence from using other nicotine-containing products (e.g., nicotine patches, chewing gum, e-cigarettes) for at least the last 3 months prior to first administration of study intervention.

* Informed Consent
7. Capable of giving signed informed consent as described in Section 10.1 of SP, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol prior to any clinical study-specific procedure.

EXLCUSION:

Subjects are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:
* Medical Conditions

<!-- -->

Any history or evidence of any clinically relevant and/or other major disease or malignancy as determined by medical evaluation (including physical examination) capable of significantly altering the absorption, metabolism, or elimination of drugs, constituting a risk when taking the study intervention or interfering with the interpretation of data.
2. Contraindications for the use of pasireotide in medical history, such as ≥ moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B), hypocortisolism, uncontrolled diabetes, heart failure ≥ New York Heart Association Class III, cardiogenic shock, second- or third-degree AV block, sinoatrial block, sick sinus syndrome, severe bradycardia or congenital long QT syndrome.
