Participant flow
Recruitment details
Open-label, two period fixed sequence design trial to investigate the induction effect of multiple oral doses of 18 milligram (mg) of BI 1015550 twice daily (bid) on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of midazolam.
Pre-assignment details
All subjects were screened for eligibility prior to participation in the trial. Subjects attended a specialist site which ensured that they (the subjects) strictly met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be allocated to treatment if any of the entry criteria were violated.

|---|---|
| Midazolam (R) / BI 1015550 + Midazolam (T) A single dose of 1 milliliter (mL) of midazolam solution (2mg/mL) was administered orally on Day 1 as reference treatment (R ) in period 1. In period 2, one film-coated tablet of 18 mg BI 1015550 was administered orally twice daily (bid) for 13 days (Day -13 to Day -1), and once daily (qd) on Day 1 together with a single dose of 1 mL oral solution of midazolam (2mg/mL) as test treatment (T). There was a washout period of at least 24 hours between the reference treatment (R) and the first BI 1015550 administration in the test treatment (T). | 15 |

For BI + midazolam (T): 313 hours prior to administration of BI 1015550 + midazolam, at BI 1015550 + midazolam administration (0 hour) and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 24 hours after administration of BI 1015550 + midazolam in period 2.
Time frame: Midazolam (R): Within 3 hours prior to midazolam administration and up to 24 hours after midazolam administration, in period 1. BI 101550 + midazolam (T): 313 hours prior and up to 24 hours after BI 1015550 + midazolam administration, in period 2.
Population: Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter analysis set (PKS): this set included all subjects in the treated set who provided at least 1 PK endpoint that was defined as primary or secondary and was not excluded due to a protocol deviation relevant to the evaluation of PK or due to PK non-evaluability. Thus, a subject was included in the PKS, even if he contributed only one PK parameter value for one period to the statistical assessment.
