Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Written informed consent/assent from the subject and/or a legal representative prior to initiation of any study-mandated procedures - Fontan-palliated subjects with either intra-atrial lateral tunnel total cavopulmonary connection (LT-TCPC), or extra cardiac tunnel TCPC (EC-TCPC) surgery > 1 year before Screening.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Pattern of Fontan circulation severity - Deterioration of the Fontan-palliated condition - Systolic BP < 90 mmHg (< 85 mmHg for < 18 years old and < 150 cm of height) at rest or during Cardiopulmonary exercise testing at screening or baseline - Criteria related to macitentan use - Limitations to Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) - Peak VO2 < 15 mL/kg/min. - Any known factor or disease that may interfere with treatment compliance or full participation in the study

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Main Objective: To assess the effect of macitentan on exercise capacity (measured by peak oxygen uptake [VO2]) in comparison with placebo in Fontan-palliated subjects.;Secondary Objective: To assess the effect of macitentan on daily Physical Activity measured by Accelometer (PA-Ac). To evaluate the safety and tolerability of macitentan.;Primary end point(s): - Change in peak VO2 (oxygen uptake);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From Baseline (Randomization/Visit 2) to Week 16 (Visit 4)	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Secondary end point(s): Efficacy - Change in mean count per minute of daily PA-Ac - Change in peak VO2 Safety - Treatment-emergent AEs and SAEs - AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study treatment Pharmacokinetics (PK) - Trough (pre dose) plasma concentrations;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy - from Baseline (Visit 2) to Week 16 (Visit 4) - from Baseline (Visit 2) over 52 weeks Safety - up to 30 days after study treatment discontinuation. PK - at Week 8 (Visit 3) and Week 16 (Visit 4), or at EOT in the case of premature study drug discontinuation.	—
