Tepotinib + Midazolam (Test Treatment)TepotinibAll participants who received 7.5 mg midazolam tablet in treatment period 1 received single oral dose of 500 mg tepotinib film-coated tablet from Day 1 to 11 along with 7.5 mg midazolam tablet on Day 11 in treatment period 2.
Midazolam (Reference Treatment)MidazolamParticipants received single oral dose of 7.5 milligrams (mg) midazolam tablet on Day 1 of treatment period 1. The washout period between midazolam administrations in Period 1 and Period 2 was 12 days.
Tepotinib + Midazolam (Test Treatment)MidazolamAll participants who received 7.5 mg midazolam tablet in treatment period 1 received single oral dose of 500 mg tepotinib film-coated tablet from Day 1 to 11 along with 7.5 mg midazolam tablet on Day 11 in treatment period 2.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Last Sampling Time (Tlast) at Which the Concentration is at or Above the Lower Limit of Quantification (AUC0-t) of MidazolamPre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

AUC0-t a Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter was calculated according to the mixed log linear trapezoidal rule.

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of MidazolamPre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

AUC0-inf was calculated as AUC0-t plus (+) AUCextra. AUCextra represents the extrapolated part of AUC0-inf calculated by Clastpred/Lambda z, where Clastpred is the predicted plasma concentration at the last sampling time point, calculated from the log-linear regression line for Lambda z determination at which the measured plasma concentration is at or above Lower limit of quantification (LLOQ).

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of MidazolamPre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

Cmax was obtained directly from concentration versus time curve.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Midazolam and Midazolam Metabolite (1-Hydroxymidazolam)Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

Tmax is time to reach maximum observed plasma concentration obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs and TEAEs Leading to DeathBaseline (Day 1 of treatment period 1) up to the End of Trial visit (Day 20)

Adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in participants which does not necessarily have causal relationship with treatment. AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign (including abnormal laboratory finding), symptom/disease temporally associated with use of medicinal product, whether/not considered related to medicinal product. A serious adverse event (SAE) was AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial/prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. Term TEAE is defined as AEs starting/worsening after first intake of the study drug. TEAEs included both serious TEAEs and non-serious TEAEs.

Area Under Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Last Sampling Time (Tlast) at Which the Concentration is at or Above the Lower Limit of Quantification (AUC0-t) of Midazolam Metabolite (1-Hydroxymidazolam)Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

AUC0-t a Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter was calculated according to the mixed log linear trapezoidal rule.

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of Midazolam Metabolite (1-Hydroxymidazolam)Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

AUC0-inf was calculated as AUC0-t plus (+) AUCextra. AUCextra represents the extrapolated part of AUC0-inf calculated by Clastpred/Lambda z, where Clastpred is the predicted plasma concentration at the last sampling time point, calculated from the log-linear regression line for Lambda z determination at which the measured plasma concentration is at or above Lower limit of quantification (LLOQ).

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Midazolam Metabolite (1-Hydroxymidazolam)Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

Cmax was obtained directly from concentration versus time curve.

Metabolic Ratio of Midazolam and Midazolam Metabolite (1-hydroxymidazolam)Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

Metabolic ratio was calculated as AUC 0-infinity of midazolam divided by AUC 0-infinity of 1-hydroxymidazolam.

Elimination Half Life (t1/2) of Midazolam and Midazolam Metabolite (1-Hydroxymidazolam)Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 43 hours post-dose on Day 1 of period 1 and Day 11 of Period 2

Elimination Half Life (t1/2) was defined as the time required for the concentration or amount of drug in the body to be reduced by one-half.

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Laboratory ValuesFrom Screening up to the End of Trial visit (Day 20)

Number of participants with clinically significant changes in laboratory values were reported. Clinical significance was decided by the investigator. Laboratory investigation included hematology and urinalysis.

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG)Day 1 (Treatment Period 1) up to the End of Trial visit (Day 20)

Number of participants with clinically significant changes in 12-lead ECG were reported. Clinical significance was decided by the investigator. The 12-lead ECGs were recorded after the participants have rested for at least 5 minute in supine position.

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Vital SignsDay 1 (Treatment Period 1) up to the End of Trial visit (Day 20)

Number of participants with clinically significant changes in vital signs were reported. Clinical significance was decided by Investigator. Vital signs included body temperature, blood pressure and pulse rate.
