## Title and summary

**Summary**

The purpose of the study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous (sc) dose of bimekizumab (BKZ) when administered using bimekizumab-autoinjector (AI)-2mL presentation versus bimekizumab-AI-2x1mL presentation in healthy study participants.

## Outcomes

### Primary outcomes

1. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC) for a Single Dose Bimekizumab (BKZ)  
Timeframe: Baseline (Day 1 predose) at predefined time points (up to Day 140)  
AUC is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 (Day 1 predose) to infinity.
2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-t) for a Single Dose Bimekizumab (BKZ)  
Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1 predose) at predefined time points to the last quantifiable concentration (Day 140)  
AUC0-t is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero (Day 1 predose) to the last quantifiable concentration.
3. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for a Single Dose Bimekizumab (BKZ)  
Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1 predose) at predefined time points (up to Day 140)  
Cmax is a maximum observed plasma concentration.

### Secondary outcomes

1. Percentage of Participants With at Least One Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) From Baseline to End of Safety Follow-Up  
Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of Safety Follow-Up (up to Day 140)  
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. TEAEs are defined as AEs not present prior to the administration of IMP or any unresolved event already present before administration of IMP that worsens in intensity following exposure to study treatment.
2. Percentage of Participants With at Least One Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Event (SAE) From Baseline to End of Safety Follow-Up  
Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of Safety Follow-Up (up to Day 140)  
A SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: a. Results in death, b. Is life-threatening, c. Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, d. Results in persistent disability/incapacity, e. Is a congenital anomaly/ birth defect, f. Is an important medical event which based on appropriate medical judgment, jeopardized the study participant and required medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the above.
3. Apparent Terminal Half-life (t1/2)  
Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1 predose) at predefined time points (up to Day 140)  
Apparent terminal half-life as determined via linear regression (slope=-lamdbaz) of the natural log (ln) concentration versus time, for data points in the terminal phase of the concentration time curve (ln2/lambdaz).
4. Time of Occurrence of the Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax) of a Single Dose Bimekizumab (BKZ)  
Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1 predose) at predefined time points (up to Day 140)  
tmax is the time to reach maximum plasma concentration.

- Study participant has a body temperature between 35.0°C and 37.5°C, inclusive, at Screening and on admission
- Body weight minimum of 50 kg for male and 45 kg for female study participants and a maximum of 100 kg for all study participants, and body mass index (BMI) within the range 18 to 32 kg/m^2 (inclusive) at the Screening Visit

### Exclusion criteria

- Study participant has a known hypersensitivity to any components of the bimekizumab (and/or an investigational device) as stated in this protocol

Live vaccines are not allowed during the study or for 20 weeks after the last dose of the investigational medicinal product (IMP)
- Study participant has previously participated in this study or a study participant has previously been assigned to bimekuzimab treatment in any other study
- Exposure to 3 or more new chemical entities within 12 months prior to dosing
- Current enrollment or past participation within the last 30 days before signing the informed consent form (ICF) in any other clinical study involving an investigational study intervention or any other type of medical research

- Study participant has made a blood donation of a blood loss of more than 400 mL of blood or blood products within 90 days prior to admission (Day -1) or plans to donate blood during the study
- Female study participant who is pregnant, or plans to become pregnant during the study, or lactating, or sexually active with childbearing potential who is not using a medically accepted birth control method
- Study participant has an alcohol consumption of more than 21 units (males) or 14 units (females) of alcohol per week (1 unit of alcohol is equivalent to 12.5 mL ethanol at room temperature)
- Study participant tests positive for alcohol or drugs (urine test) at Screening or Day -1
- Vulnerable study participants (eg, participants kept in detention, protected adults under guardianship or trusteeship, and soldiers or participants committed to an institution by governmental or juridical order), employees of the Sponsor or the contract research organization (CRO) with direct involvement in the proposed study or other studies under the direction of the Investigator or the CRO, as well as family members of the employees or the Investigator
- Study participant has a positive test result for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) on the admission sample
