Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Participants will be recruited through radio, print and television advertising and database searches. The Nucleus Network database currently has a number of Japanese and Caucasian volunteers. If required, print advertising may be used after translation to Japanese.
Through advertising, potential participants will contact the Nucleus Network volunteer recruitment office and a brief synopsis of the study and its requirements will be discussed over the telephone. Following this
initial telephone conversation, potential participants will be invited to the Centre for Clinical Studies.
The database searches will involve the volunteer recruitment officers identifying participants that are suitable for inclusion in the trial and contacting them by telephone. A brief synopsis of the study and its requirements will be discussed. Following this initial telephone
conversation, potential participants will be invited to the Centre for Clinical Studies. Volunteers registered on the databases have given consent to be contacted for future studies.
Participants will be provided with the information and consent form for this study by mail or email prior to attendance at the Centre for Clinical Studies where possible. Where this is not possible the information and
consent form will be provided in the privacy of a consulting room. The participant will be given the opportunity to take the information home before deciding to take part in the study or not. The information will be discussed with the potential participant and any questions answered by
the investigator and / or study staff.
When the participant is satisfied that they understand what their participation in the study involves, and they have had all their questions answered to their satisfaction, they will be asked to sign the consent form to participate in research, only if they are willing to participate. The
consenting process will be documented in the volunteers’ source documents.
Once the participant is deemed eligible, study treatment would be allocated by central randomisation by phone/fax/computer.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
The treatment assigned will be decided by a code produced by a computer and will be decided at random (by chance, just like a roll of a dice). Allocation of a participant to the study will be performed by central randomisation by phone/fax/computer.

Statistical methods / analysis
At least 150 healthy adult male and female subjects will be enrolled in this study, of which a minimum of 24 Japanese subjects (8 per group) are required. Based on an assumption of between-subject variability (as measured by coefficient of variation) of 32% true geometric mean ratio (GMR) of 1 among ABP 710, infliximab (US), and
infliximab (EU), the resulting 90% confidence intervals (CIs) for the ratio of geometric means (ABP 710 to infliximab [US], ABP 710 to infliximab [EU], and infliximab [US] to
infliximab [EU]) for primary PK endpoints are estimated to fall entirely within margin (0.80, 1.25) with 90% power, assuming an approximate 10% dropout.

Summary
Brief summary
The study is evaluating the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of ABP 710 in healthy subjects compared with US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-licensed Infliximab and European Union (EU)-authorized
Infliximab.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible to join this study if you are a healthy male and female subjects 18 to 45 years of age, inclusive. Non-Japanese subjects will have a body mass index (BMI) of 18.0 to 30.0 kg/m2, inclusive.
Japanese subjects must be first- or second-generation Japanese and have a BMI of 18.0 to 25.0 kg/m2, inclusive.

Trial details
Participants in this study will be randomly (by chance) divided into one of three groups. Participants in one group will receive 5mg/kg of ABP 710 (100mg vial) intravenously once only. Participants in the second group will
receive 5mg/kg2 of FDA-licensed Infliximab (100mg vial) intravenously.
Participants in the third group will receive 5mg/kg2 of EU-authorised Infliximab (100mg vial) intravenously.

All participants will be followed-up at 57 days post allocation to one of the three drugs used in this trial.
