Conditions
Brief summary
This study was a single-center, non-randomized, open-label, one-sequence, two-period, within-subject study to investigate the effects of multiple doses of rifampicin on the PK and safety of multiple doses of balovaptan in healthy subjects. The study was conducted at 1 site in the Netherlands.
Interventions
In Period 1, balovaptan was administered alone as a once daily (qd) dose on Days 1 to 10. In Period 2, balovaptan was administered as a qd dose on Days 7 to 16.
In Period 2, 600 mg of rifampicin will be administered alone as a qd dose from Day 1 to Day 6, and as a qd dose on Days 7 to 16.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Healthy male and female subjects. Healthy status is defined by absence of evidence of any active or chronic disease following a detailed medical and surgical history, a complete physical examination including vital signs, 12-lead ECG, hematology, blood chemistry, urinalysis, and serology. * Body Mass Index of 18 to 30 kg/m2, inclusive. * For women of childbearing potential: agreement to use at least 2 acceptable contraceptive methods during the treatment period and for 90 days after the last dose of study drug. * For men: agreement to use contraceptive measures, and agreement to refrain from donating sperm until 90 days after the last dose of study drug.
Exclusion criteria
* Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating. * Any condition or disease detected during the medical interview/physical examination that would render the subject unsuitable for the study, place the subject at undue risk or interfere with the ability of the subject to complete the study in the opinion of the Investigator.
