ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new medication called ENZ215, which is similar to an existing drug known as Prolia®. The goal is to see how the two medications compare in terms of how they work in the body, their safety, and how well they are tolerated by healthy adult men. The study involves giving a single injection of 60 mg of either ENZ215 or Prolia® to healthy male volunteers between the ages of 28 and 55.

To participate, volunteers must be in good health and meet certain criteria, such as having a normal weight and not having any significant medical conditions. They also need to agree to follow the study guidelines and provide consent. Participants can expect to make multiple visits to the study site for tests and monitoring after receiving the injection. It's important to note that individuals with certain health issues, recent drug use, or specific dental conditions may not be eligible for the trial. This study is currently recruiting volunteers, so if you or someone you know fits the criteria and is interested, it could be a chance to contribute to important research.

Eligibility criteria

• • INCLUSION CRITERIA
• The subjects will be included in the study based on the following criteria:
• • 1. Able to understand and give written, voluntary informed consent for the study
• • 2. Healthy adult male volunteers between 28 to 55 years of age (both inclusive)
• • 3. Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 18.50 and ≤ 30.00 kg/m2 at the time of screening
• • 4. Medically healthy with no clinically significant medical history, vital signs, physical examination, and laboratory profiles
• • 5. Normal or clinically acceptable 12-lead electrocardiogram, QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc interval)\* ≤ 450 msec at the time of screening
• • 6. Subjects with negative alcohol test (breath analyzer or any suitable test) at the time of screening and admission (pre-dose)
• • 7. Male subjects with female partners who agree to use effective contraception during study#

• • 9. Willing and able to comply with the protocol requirements
• • 10. Willing for multiple sampling and admission at the phase 1 study site day before dosing \*Note: QTc interval will be calculated using the Bazette and Fridericia formula # Effective contraception: A non-vasectomised Male volunteers with female partners of child bearing potential should use dual method of contraception i.e. condom with spermicide method of contraception.
• • Female partners should use hormonal or non-hormonal method of contraception. (No restrictions are required for a vasectomised male provided his vasectomy has been performed 4 months or more prior to the first dosing. A male who has been vasectomised less than 4 months prior to the first dosing must follow the same restrictions as a non-vasectomised male).

• • 2. Participating or has received any investigational drug (or is currently using an investigational device) within 30 days before receiving the study drug, or at least 10 times the respective elimination halflife (whichever period is longer) \*
• • \* For monoclonal antibody refer exclusion criteria number 18 and 19
• • 3. A serious infection (associated with housing and/or required intravenous anti-infectives) within 6 months before study drug administration and/or any active infection within 4 weeks of screening requiring oral or systemic antibiotics
• • 4. History of significant drug abuse within 12 months before screening or a use of soft drugs (such as marijuana) within 3 months before the screening visit or hard drugs (such as cocaine, phencyclidine, and crack etc.) within 12 months before screening
• • 5. Smokers who smoke ≥ 10 cigarettes or equivalent per day within 90 days prior to screening
• • 6. Subjects with positive urine screen for drugs of abuse at the time of screening or check-in
• • 7. Subjects with Urine Cotinine \> 500ng/ml at the time of screening or check-in
• • 8. Subjects with risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw i.e. poor oral hygiene, periodontal disease, poorly fitting dentures, history of dental disease or have undergone invasive dental procedures e.g. tooth extractions within last 6 months prior to screening.
• • 9. Subjects with a predictable risk of invasive dental surgery during the 9 months after dosing or with planned invasive dental procedure
• • 10. Subjects with known bone disease or recent fracture or abnormalities of calcium metabolism
• • 11. Loss of blood (excluding volume drawn at screening) of 50 mL to 499 mL within 30 days, or more than 499 mL within 56 days before dosing
• • 12. History of immunodeficiency (including those subjects with a positive test for human immunodeficiency virus \[HIV\] at screening)
• • 13. Have a positive result for hepatitis B antigen test (HBsAg) or hepatitis C antibody test (HCAb), or show evidence of possible infection
• • 14. Major surgical procedure within 28 days of dose of investigational product.
• • 15. Male subjects having pregnant female partner at the time of screening.
• • 16. Subject with a history of recurrent or chronic infections
• • 17. Received live vaccines within 4 weeks or who may require live vaccine(s) during the study duration
• • 18. Prior use of denosumab
• • 19. Have previously been exposed to a monoclonal antibody or fusion protein within 270 days (other than denosumab) prior to randomisation and/or there is confirmed evidence or clinical suspicion of immunogenicity from previous exposure to a monoclonal antibody or fusion protein.
• • 20. Any reason/condition which would preclude subject's participation in the study as per the Investigator's opinion or warnings and contraindications in the prescribing information of Prolia
• • 21. Subjects with suspected signs and symptoms of COVID-19/confirmed novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).
