Brief summary
To demonstrate that BI 201335 does not prolong the QT interval more than placebo. To assess the tolerability of 1200 mg of BI 201335 as single dose in female subjects (double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled) before inclusion of female subjects in the cross-over part of the trial.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| QTcI interval (QT interval individually corrected for heart rate) | pre-dose and 3 to 8 hours |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The mean value of QTcI changes from baseline between 2 h and 24 h after dosing | Pre dose and 2 to 24 hours post dosing |
| The change from mean baseline of the QTcI at any point in time between 2 h and 24 h after dosing | Pre dose and 2 to 24 hours post dosing |
| The time-matched changes versus placebo in QTcI at any point in time between 2 h and 24 h after dosing | Pre dose and 2 to 24 hours post dosing |
