• Systolic blood pressure (SBP) 100-140 mmHg, Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) 60-90 mmHg, and pulse rate 60-100 bpm (inclusive), measured on the dominant arm, after 5 min in the supine position at Screening and on Day 1 pre-dose of the first period.

• Woman of Childbearing Potential who has a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on Day -1 of the first period. She must agree to consistently and correctly use (from Screening, during the entire study, and for at least 30 days after the last study treatment administration) a highly effective method of contraception with a failure rate of less than 1% per year.

• Woman of non-childbearing potential, i.e., postmenopausal (defined as 12 consecutive months with no menses without an alternative medical cause; in addition, an FSH test must be performed at Screening to further support postmenopausal status), with previous bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral salpingo oophorectomy or hysterectomy, or with premature ovarian failure (confirmed by a specialist), XY genotype, uterine agenesis.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Pregnant or lactating woman.

• Previous administration of aprocitentan.

• Known hypersensitivity to endothelin receptor antagonists or to excipients used in any of the formulations.

• History of major medical or surgical disorders which, in the opinion of the investigator, are likely to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the study treatments (appendectomy and herniotomy allowed, cholecystectomy not allowed).

• Acute, ongoing, recurrent, or chronic systemic disease able to interfere with the evaluation of the study results.

• Clinically relevant findings on the physical examination at Screening and on Day -1 of the first period.

• Clinically relevant findings in clinical laboratory tests (hematology and clinical chemistry) at Screening and on Day -1 of the first period.

• Previous treatment with any prescribed medications (including vaccines) or over-the-counter medications (including herbal medicines such as St John's Wort, homeopathic preparations, vitamins, and minerals) within 3 weeks or 5 terminal elimination half-lives (t½; whichever is longer) prior to first study treatment administration.

• Legal incapacity or limited legal capacity at Screening.

• Positive COVID-19 test, if performed (subject to current epidemiological regulations in the Czech Republic) during the screening period.
