Study Groups

Treatment sequence ABC

In Period 1 participants will receive 1 tablet of balovaptan after high-fat, high-calorie meal. In Period 2, after 12 to 21 days wash-out, participants will receive 1 tablet of balovaptan after 10-hour fast. In Period 3 participants will receive esomeprazole administered once daily for 6 days and with a single oral dose of balovaptan in the fasted state 1 hour after the fifth esomeprazole dose

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL
