Participant Flow

Participants underwent screening evaluations to determine eligibility within 21 days before dosing, and were admitted to the clinical facility the evening before dosing (Day -1). On Day 1 of Period 1, a total of 30 participants who met all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatment sequences.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: AEs: from initiation of study drug administration on morning of Day 1/Period 1 through study discharge. SAEs: from date of written consent until 30 days after discontinuation of dosing or participation in study if last scheduled visit occurred later.

Population: All subjects who received at least one dose of study medication.

AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a subject administered an investigational product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs inpatient hospitalization (including elective surgery), results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an important medical event.
