Study Summary

Biogen Idec has developed a novel process to manufacture Interferon beta-1a (INFB), the active ingredient of Avonex®, that does not include fetal bovine serum (FBS). This bioequivalence study is being conducted to confirm the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) comparability of Interferon beta-1a produced by the currently approved serum-containing process and Interferon beta-1a produced by the new serum-free manufacturing process.
