Evaluation of safety, tolerability and the pharmacodynamic effect after treatment of vericiguat and nitroglycerin

Trial purpose

The primary objective of this study was to assess safety and tolerability of this combination.

The secondary objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacodynamic interaction (effect on BP and HR) between vericiguat 5.0 mg and a 0.2 mg of sublingual nitroglycerin.
