Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Absolute bioavailability (F) of selexipag
From pre-dose to 72 hours post-dose

F was calculated using the areas under the plasma concentrations curves extrapolated to infinity \[AUC(0-inf)\] after oral (po) and intravenous (iv) doses, obtained during the main phase, and using the following formula: AUC(0-inf)po \* iv dose / AUC(0-inf)iv \* oral dose

Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity [AUC(0-inf)] of selexipag
From pre-dose to 72 hours post-dose

AUC(0-inf) was calculated from the concentration-time profile of selexipag after both oral and intravenous administration during the main phase

Secondary Endpoints

Areas under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to time t [AUC(0-t)] of selexipag and its active metabolite
From pre-dose to 72 hours post-dose
Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of selexipag and its active metabolite
From pre-dose to 72 hours post-dose
time to reach maximum plasma concentration (tmax) of selexipag and its active metabolite
From pre-dose to 72 hours post-dose

Intravenous selexipag (Pilot phase)EXPERIMENTALSubjects received a 20-minute intravenous (i.v.) infusion of 50 µg selexipag
Sequence A-B (Main phase)EXPERIMENTALSubjects received a 80-minute i.v. infusion of 200 µg selexipag during Period 1, and 2 tablets of oral selexipag (total dose of 400 µg) as a single administration during Period 2. A washout period of 7 to 10 days separated the i.v. infusion from the oral administration.
Sequence B-A (Main phase)EXPERIMENTALSubjects received 2 tablets of oral selexipag (total dose of 400 µg) as a single administration during Period 1, and a 80-minute i.v. infusion of 200 µg selexipag during Period 2. A washout period of 7 to 10 days separated the oral administration from the i.v. infusion.
