Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
22 Healthy subjects will be assigned to one of the below treatment arms -

Treatment A (N=6): Open-label intravenous (IV), 90 mg/mL x 2.4 mL (total 216 mg/ 50 mL normal saline).

Treatment B (N=8): Double-blind (6 active : 2 placebo) subcutaneous (SC), 90 mg/mL x 2 injections (1.2 mL per injection / total 216 mg per subject) or placebo administered at one location, 2 adjunct injections in one anterior upper thigh.

Treatment C (N=8): Double-blind (6 active : 2 placebo) subcutaneous (SC), 90 mg/mL x 4 injections (1.2 mL per injection / total 432 mg per subject) or placebo administered at 2 locations, 2 adjunct injections in each anterior upper thigh.

Subjects will be randomized to Treatment A (active),
Treatment B (active), Treatment B (placebo), Treatment C (active) or Treatment C (placebo) in a ratio of 3:3:1:3:1. Randomizations will be stratified within each group equally to either the 60- < 80 kg weight group or the 80-100 kg weight group .

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 287311 0
The absolute bioavailability of BMS-936557 following 216 mg and 432 mg SC administration compared to IV administration in healthy subjects.
Timepoint [1] 287311 0
The absolute bioavailability of BMS-936557 following 216 mg and 432 mg SC administration compared to IV administration will be estimated as a ratio of dosed
normalized exposure following SC dose over that following IV dosing.

Treatment A (IV) - PK sampling will be performed on day 1 (pre-dose, 20 mins, 1 hr, 2 hrs, 6hrs and 12hrs post dose), day 2 , day 3, day 4, day 6, day 8, day 15, day 29, day 43 and day 57 post dose.

Treatment arm B and C (SC) - PK sampling will be performed on day 1 (pre dose and 12 hours post dose) day 2 (24 & 36 hrs post dose), day 3 (48 & 60hrs post dose), day 4, day 5, day 6, day 8, day 15, day 29, day 43 and day 57.
Secondary outcome [1] 297881 0
Pharmacokinetics will be assessed by single-dose pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC(0-T), dose-normalized (DN) AUC(0-T), AUC(INF), DN AUC(INF), T-HALF, CLT (IV only), CLT/F (SC only), Vz (IV only), Vss (IV only), and Vz/F (SC only).
Timepoint [1] 297881 0
Treatment A (IV) - PK sampling will be performed on day 1 (pre-dose, 20 mins, 1 hr, 2 hrs, 6hrs and 12hrs post dose), day 2 , day 3, day 4, day 6, day 8, day 15, day 29, day 43 and day 57 post dose.

Treatment arm B and C (SC) - PK sampling will be performed on day 1 (pre dose and 12 hours post dose) day 2 (24 & 36 hrs post dose), day 3 (48 & 60hrs post dose), day 4, day 5, day 6, day 8, day 15, day 29, day 43 and day 57.
Secondary outcome [2] 297882 0
Safety Outcome Measures. The following Adverse events have been reported - infections (such as skin infections, abcesses, diverticulitis) and allergic reactions to study drug. Other common side effects are -
-Cough
-Pharyngolaryngeal pain (throat pain)
-Back pain
-Dizziness
-Pyrexia/hyperthermia (fever)
-Rash
Timepoint [2] 297882 0
Safety assessments will be based on the following -
- medical review of adverse event reports (screening, day-1, day 1 - 6, day 8, 15, 29, 43 and 57).
-vital sign measurements (screening, day-1, day 1, 2, 8, 15, 29, 43 and 57)
- ECGs (screening, day 1, 3, 5, and 8).
-physical examinations (screening, day-1, day 8, 29 and 57).
-clinical laboratory tests (screening, day-1, day 2, 5, 29, 43 and 57).
The incidence of observed adverse events will be tabulated and reviewed for potential significance and clinical importance.
Secondary outcome [3] 297883 0
Immunogenicity Measures
Timepoint [3] 297883 0

Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Each study participant deemed eligible for the study will be assigned a sequential study number by the study staff. The pharmacist will then assign treatment to each subject number according to a computer generated randomisation schedule. The pharmacist is the only person with access to this schedule.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Randomised Controlled Trial: participants are assigned to intervention groups by chance. The randomisation schedule is computer generated.
Masking / blinding
