  • Data are presented as median (range), unless otherwise stated. For the FVC analysis, eight (6.8%) subjects in the macitentan group had no post-baseline data: for four (3.4%) subjects the worst values were imputed and for four (3.4%) subjects the mean percentage change was imputed. In subjects with post-baseline data, five (4.2%) macitentan-treated subjects and four (6.8%) placebo recipients had data carried forward and three (2.5%) macitentan-treated subjects and two (3.4%) placebo recipients had worst values substituted for missing data. For the FEV1 analysis, six (5.2%) subjects in the macitentan group had no post-baseline data and the worst values were imputed. In subjects with post-baseline data, three (2.6%) macitentan-treated subjects and four (6.8%) placebo recipients had data carried forward and three (2.6%) macitentan-treated subjects and two (3.4%) placebo recipients had worst values substituted for missing data. For the DLCO analysis, four (3.5%) subjects in the macitentan group had no post-baseline data and the worst value was imputed. In subjects with post-baseline data, six (5.2%) macitentan-treated subjects and four (6.8%) placebo recipients had data carried forward and four (3.5%) macitentan-treated subjects and three (5.1%) placebo recipients had worst values substituted for missing data. #: n=115 in macitentan treatment arm.
