PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 10 of Period 1 and Day 16 of Period 2

Population: The Pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis population consisted of all subjects who received at least one dose of balovaptan. Participants were excluded from the PK analysis population if they significantly violated the inclusion or exclusion criteria, deviated significantly from the protocol, or if data were unavailable or incomplete.

Cmax is the observed peak analyte concentration obtained directly from the experimental data without interpolation, expressed in concentration units.
