Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This study will be conducted in 20 healthy participants with a BMI of 25.0 to 40.0 kg/m2. Subjects will undergo screening procedures within 21 days of dosing day. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the following RYI-018 treatment arms (10 participants in each treatment arm):
- Treatment Arm 1: 100 mg of RYI-018 SC injection will be given in the abdomen in a 1 mL syringe
- Treatment Arm 2: 100 mg of RYI-018 IV in 100 mL of 0.9% normal saline infused over approximately 30 minutes
Randomization will be stratified according to baseline BMI; stratification groups will be defined as follows:
- Participants with BMI 25.0 to 32.5 kg/m2 (inclusive)
- Participants with BMI >32.5 to 40.0 kg/m2
Subjects will receive a single administration of study intervention (after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours) and will be confined to the Phase 1 unit for approximately 24 hours after RYI-018 administration (through Day 2) for PK, tolerability and safety assessments. Subsequently, all participants will be followed-up for PK and safety assessments through 90 days post-dose.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 307349 0
To assess the absolute bioavailability of RYI-018 administered by SC injection.
Timepoint [1] 307349 0
Absolute bioavailability is assessed by PK analyses
PK profile of RYI-018 is assessed on Day 1, PK blood samples will be collected at the following timepoints: predose (-15 minutes), 0.5 (immediately after the end of infusion), 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 hours after the completion of dosing. Post-dose collection time-points are relative to the start of infusion time. Additional samples will be collected on Day 2 (24 hours postdose), 3 (48 hours post-dose), 4 (72 hours post-dose), 5 (96 hours post-dose). Allowable sampling time deviation windows are ± 5 minutes at 1, 2, and 4 hours and ± 10 minutes for all timepoints greater than 4 hours (in the domiciled periods). There is a ±2 hour collection window for PK blood samples collected on Day 4 and Day 5. Additional samples will be collected on Day, 8, 15, 22, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 at approximately the same time of day. Primary outcome is absolute bioavailability, calculated as (AUC0-8 ) SC / (AUC0-8) IV
Secondary outcome [1] 351557 0
To assess safety and tolerability of RYI-018 after SC injection and IV administration.
Timepoint [1] 351557 0
Safety and tolerability is assessed after administration of RYI-018. Injection site will be evaluated by the investigator after completion of study intervention administration for any local AEs (e.g. injection site reaction, swelling, erythema, edema).
Injection site reactions (including those which have developed after the 15 minute post administration assessment) will be assessed by the Investigator at each visit until resolved or considered stable by the Investigator and this assessment will include VAS administration.
Secondary outcome [2] 351558 0
To determine the PK profile of RYI-018 following a single SC or IV dose of RYI-018.
Timepoint [2] 351558 0
PK profile of RYI-018 is assessed on Day 1, PK blood samples will be collected at the following timepoints: predose (-15 minutes), 0.5 (immediately after the end of infusion), 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 hours after the completion of dosing. Post-dose collection time-points are relative to the start of infusion time. Additional samples will be collected on Day 2 (24 hours postdose), 3 (48 hours post-dose), 4 (72 hours post-dose), 5 (96 hours post-dose). Allowable sampling time deviation windows are ± 5 minutes at 1, 2, and 4 hours and ± 10 minutes for all timepoints greater than 4 hours (in the domiciled periods). There is a ±2 hour collection window for PK blood samples collected on Day 4 and Day 5. Additional samples will be collected on Day, 8, 15, 22, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 at approximately the same time of day. The PK profile of RYI-018 following a single SC or IV dose of RYI-018 will be determined by:
• Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to the time of the last sample collection (AUC0-t),
• Area under the serum concentration versus time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-8)
• Percent extrapolation (AUC0-8-AUC0-t)/(AUC0-8)x100
• Serum maximum observed concentration (Cmax)
• Time to maximum observed concentration (tmax)
• Serum terminal elimination rate constant (IV) and apparent serum terminal elimination rate constant (SC) (?z)
• Elimination half-life (t½)
• Clearance (CL)
• Volume of distribution (Vd)
Secondary outcome [3] 351559 0
To determine levels of antidrug antibodies (ADA) after a single SC or IV dose of RYI-018.
Timepoint [3] 351559 0
Anti-RYI-018 antibody blood samples are collected at the following timepoints: predose, Day 22, Day 45 and Day 90(only if ADA is positive at Day 45).

Summary
Brief summary
This study of RYI-018 will be conducted in 20 healthy participants with a BMI between 25.0 and 40.0 kg/m2. The participants will be randomized in to one of two treatment arms, each arm having 10 participants. The study will estimate the absolute bioavailability of a sub-cutaneous formulation versus an IV formulation, as well as assess the safety and tolerability of RYI-018. Participants will receive a single dose of RYI-018 (after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours) and will be confined for approximately 24 hours after RYI-018 administration. All participants will be followed-up through 90 days post-dose. It is hypothesised that the subcutaneous formulation will work in the same way as the intravenous formulation, allowing for easier administration of RYI-018 and subsequently higher treatment compliance.
