  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialPharmacokinetics

    In healthy Chinese volunteers, a test liraglutide biosimilar was bioequivalent to the reference product for maximum concentration (geometric mean ratio 105.7%).

    Summary
    PK parameters were comparable between T and R, with GMRs of T/R for Cmax and AUC0-t being 105.7% and 107.7%, respectively, the 90%CI of which met the acceptance criteria for bioequivalence.
