The purpose of this study is to demonstrate bioequivalence on the primary pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters between macitentan and tadalafil administered as a fixed dose combination (FDC) (test) of macitentan/tadalafil and the co- administered free combination (reference) of macitentan (Opsumit) and tadalafil (Adcirca) in fasted conditions in healthy adult participants; and to evaluate the effect of food on the primary PK parameters of macitentan and tadalafil administered as an FDC of macitentan/tadalafil in fed versus fasted conditions in healthy adult participants.

| Treatment Sequence ABC | Experimental | Drug: Macitentan 10 mg; Drug: Tadalafil 20 mg; Drug: Macitentan 10 mg/Tadalafil 20mg FDC | Participants will receive single oral dose of fixed dose combination (FDC) of macitentan/tadalafil under fasting conditions in (test) (Treatment A) Treatment Period 1 followed by single oral dose of FDC of macitentan/tadalafil under fed conditions (test) (Treatment B) in Treatment Period 2 and then single oral dose of macitentan/tadalafil under fasting conditions (reference) (Treatment C) in Treatment Period 3 on Day 1 of each Treatment Period. There will be a wash-out period of at least 12 days between Day 1 of subsequent treatment period. |
