| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary endpoint is to demonstrate that the exposure to bosentan in children with IPAH or familial PAH, using a pediatric formulation, is similar to that in adults with PAH.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety of a pediatric formulation of bosentan in this patient population.;Primary end point(s): The main analysis of the primary endpoint is performed on the PK-evaluable set for this equivalence study. | — |
