MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Electrocardiogram (ECG) ResultsAt screening visit, Day -1 of Period 1, and at study dischargeClinically significant was determined by the investigator. ECGs were recorded after participants had been supine for at least 5 minutes.
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Body Temperature, Blood Pressure, or Heart RateAt screening visit, prior to dosing on Day 1 of Periods 1 through 4, and at study discharge.Clinically significant was determined by the investigator. Blood pressure and heart rate were measured after the participant had been seated quietly for at least 5 minutes.
Number of Participants With Death as Outcome, Serious Adverse Events, and Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to DiscontinuationContinuously over Days 1 to 3 of treatment Periods 1, 2, 3, and 4An AE is any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. An SAE is any unfavorable medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency or abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization.
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Hematology, Serum Chemistry, and Urinalysis Laboratory Test ResultsAt screening visit, at Day -1 of Periods 1 through 4, and at dischargeClinically significant was determined by the investigator. Hematology tests included hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell count, total leukocyte count (including differential), and platelet count. Serum chemistry tests included aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, fasting glucose, total protein, albumin, sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, phosphorus, and creatine kinase. Urinalysis included protein, glucose, blood, leukocyte esterase, specific gravity, and pH.

Pre-assignment details

A total of 27 participants were enrolled and randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatment sequences: ADBC, BACD, CBDA, or DCAB. One participant withdrew from the study on Day -1 of Period 2 due to a family emergency and returned for early termination assessments on Day 4 of Period 2. She did not receive study drug in Period 2.

Number of Participants With Death as Outcome, Serious Adverse Events, and Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Discontinuation

An AE is any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. An SAE is any unfavorable medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency or abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization.

Time frame: Continuously over Days 1 to 3 of treatment Periods 1, 2, 3, and 4

Population: All enrolled participants who received study medication.
