Brief Summary

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

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of repeated doses of selexipag on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of midazolam (i.e., how long and how much midazolam is present in the blood)

Detailed Description

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

In order to exclude an inductive effect of selexipag in the gastrointestinal tract, this study aims at investigating the effect of selexipag on the PK of midazolam, a sensitive substrate of both hepatic and intestinal cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Sequence AB

Subjects participate in two study periods: During the first period, they receive a single oral dose of midazolam on Day 1. During the second period, they receive oral selexipag alone from Day 1 to Day 11 and selexipag + midazolam on Day 12. There is a washout period of 14 to 21 days between the two periods.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Midazolam

Intervention Type DRUG

Single oral dose of 7.5 mg midazolam (tablet)

Selexipag

Intervention Type DRUG

Oral administration of selexipag (200 µg film-coated tablet) for 12 consecutive days (with a titration scheme from 400 to 1600 μg b.i.d. )

Sequence BA
