Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Clinical study in healthy adult subjects to compare the adult tablet of selexipag with the tablet developed for children.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Healthy male adults receive a single dose of selexipag (200 µg) but using a different tablet strength (4 film-coated pediatric tablets of 50 µg versus one film-coated tablet of 200 µg selexipag) during each of the two study periods. There is a washout of 7-9 days between the two study treatment administrations.
