Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants will be randomized to one of two possible sequences:
Sequence 1: Single dose of 6 mg of SBS6002 (0.6 mL of 10 mg/mL pegfilgrastim solution, based on protein content only) via subcutaneous injection administered on the abdomen, followed by a washout period (of at least 42 days since dose of SBS6002), and a single dose of 6 mg of comparator via subcutaneous injection administered on the abdomen.
Sequence 2: Single dose of 6 mg of comparator via subcutaneous injection administered on the abdomen, followed by a washout period (of at least 42 days since dose of comparator), and a single dose of 6 mg of SBS6002 (0.6 mL of 10 mg/mL pegfilgrastim solution, based on protein content only) via subcutaneous injection administered on the abdomen.

Allocation involves contacting the holder of the allocation schedule who is the onsite pharmacist with no contact to participants.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomization using a randomization table created by computer software (i.e. computerized sequence generation)
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?
The people receiving the treatment/s
The people administering the treatment/s
The people assessing the outcomes
Intervention assignment
Crossover
Other design features
Phase
Phase 1
Type of endpoint/s
Bio-equivalence
Statistical methods / analysis
Statistical Analysis will be performed using mixed procedures in SAS v9.3 (SAS Institute, Cary, USA), ANOVA. Statistical analysis will be performed in reference to each individual receiving treatment, and may be used to make comparisons between doses of study drug and comparator. Demographic parameters will be summarized descriptively. Safety, tolerability and immunogenicity data will be reported using descriptive statistics (arithmetic mean, SD, CV%, Min, Max, and median).
