A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Four-way Crossover Phase 1 Study Including an Open-label Positive Control (Moxifloxacin) to Assess the Effect of Repeated Daily Doses of 10 mg and 30 mg Macitentan on the QT/QTc Interval of the ECG in Healthy Male and Female Subjects
Abstract
The study is intended to demonstrate that macitentan does not have an effect on cardiac repolarization exceeding the threshold of regulatory concern after repeated administration of daily oral doses of 10 and 30 mg to healthy male and female subjects.
Conditions: Healthy.
Primary outcome: Baseline-adjusted placebo-corrected QT interval according to Fridericia's correction (QTcF).
Enrollment: 64 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 64 participants or records.
