| Baseline-adjusted placebo-corrected QT interval according to Fridericia's correction (QTcF) | The QTcF interval was obtained directly from the Holter ECG monitoring.Triplicate ECG recordings were obtained from a 12-lead Holter recording device at various time points on Day 8. Baseline data were obtained from the pre-dose recording on Day 1 (from about 45 to 15 minutes prior to the morning dose). The QTcF interval is the QT interval (interval from beginning of the Q wave until end of the T wave) corrected for heart rate with Fridericia's formula (QTcF = QT/RR^0.33 where RR is 60/heart rate) | Day 8 |

| Placebo corrected change from baseline in RR interval (the interval from the onset of one QRS complex to the onset of the next QRS complex) on Day 8 | The RR interval was obtained directly from the Holter ECG monitoring.
