Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Part 3 (optional)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Group 1: participants will receive, in four-period crossover design, a single oral dose of risdiplam oral solution 5 mg in both fed and fasted states and the selected dispersible tablet (F22) as swallowed tablet in both fed and fasted states. Group 2: participants will receive, in four-period crossover design, a single oral dose of risdiplam oral solution 5 mg in both fed and fasted states and the selected dispersible tablet (F22) as tablet dispersed in water in both fed and fasted states.
Group II: Part 2 (optional)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Group 1: participants will receive, in four-period crossover design, a single oral dose of risdiplam oral solution 5 mg in both fed and fasted states and the selected dispersible tablet (F21) as swallowed tablet in both fed and fasted states. Group 2: participants will receive, in four-period crossover design, a single oral dose of risdiplam oral solution 5 mg in both fed and fasted states and the selected dispersible tablet (F21) as tablet dispersed in water in both fed and fasted states.
Group III: Part 1Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Cohort A+B: participants will receive, in a five-period crossover way, a single oral dose of risdiplam oral solution 5 mg in fasted state and thereafter risdiplam/F21 or F22 dispersible tablet 5 mg as tablet in fasted and fed states; tablet dispersed in water in fasted and fed states, with a 14-day wash-out period in between the single-dose administrations. Cohort C+D: participants will receive, in a two-period fixed sequence design, a single dose of risdiplam/F21 or F22 dispersible tablet 5 mg in fasted state and omeprazole 40 mg once daily for 7 days + a single dose of risdiplam/F21 or F22 dispersible tablet 5 mg in fasted state, on the 7th day of omeprazole. There will be a 14-day wash-out between the two treatment periods. Cohort E: participants will receive, in a two-period crossover design, a single oral dose of risdiplam oral solution 5 mg in fasted and fed states, with a 14-day wash-out period in between the single-dose administrations.
