Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event (AE)
From Day 1 to Day 37

AE is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant during the course of the study whether or not considered by the investigator as related to the study treatment.

Number of Participants With Prostacyclin-associated Adverse Events
From Day 1 to Day 37

Prostacyclin-associated AE include headache, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, jaw pain, myalgia, pain in the extremity, flushing and arthralgia.

Number of Participants With Adverse Event Related to Injection Site Reactions
From Day 2 to Day 3

This is the number of participants with at least one clinically significant reaction at the injection site (e.g., erythema/redness, tenderness, swelling, induration, hemorrhage at the injection site) occurring on the days of intravenous (iv) selexipag injection.

Number of Participants With Prostacyclin-associated AEs Leading to Study Treatment Discontinuation
From Day 2 to Day 3

This is the number of subjects who discontinued the i.v. selexipag treatment due to prostacyclin-associated adverse events (headache, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, jaw pain, myalgia, pain in the extremity, flushing and arthralgia).

Number of Participants With PAH-related Adverse Events
From Day 1 to Day 37
