Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of LCI699 With Respect to Effect on the Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH)-Stimulated Cortisol Response Following ACTH Stimulation in Hypertensive Participants
As per the protocol, MTD is the dose at which 4 participants exhibited ACTH-stimulated cortisol results \<400 nanomoles per liter (nmol/L). The change in the distribution across the treatments were analyzed using 1- way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for continuous variables.
Up to Week 6
Secondary Outcomes (10)
LCI699 Exposure-response Relationship on Cortisol Levels Following ACTH Stimulation in Hypertensive Participants
Up to Week 6
LCI699 Plasma Concentration Post LCI699 Administration at Day 7
Predose and 3 hours post-dose on Day 7
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of LCI699
Days 7, 28: Pre-dose and 3 hours post-dose; Day 30: Pre-dose; Day 42: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8-hours post-dose
Time of Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of LCI699
Days 7, 28: Pre-dose and 3 hours post-dose; Day 30: Pre-dose; Day 42: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8-hours post-dose
Area Under the Concentration Time Curve From Time 0 to 8 Hours Post LCI699 Administration (AUC0-8)
Day 42: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8-hours post-dose
- +5 more secondary outcomes
