Source sentences
Mean ΔΔQTcI was 13.2 milliseconds (90% CI: 11.4, 15.0) and 16.1 milliseconds (90% CI: 14.3, 17.9) for the 600 and 1,950 µg bid doses, respectively.

Maximum ΔΔQTcI occurred 2 hours post-dose for both doses of pasireotide.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of subcutaneous pasireotide on cardiac repolarization in healthy volunteers.
Healthy volunteers were randomized to one of four treatment sequences (n = 112) involving four successive treatments in different order: pasireotide 600 µg (therapeutic dose) or 1,950 µg (maximum tolerated dose) bid by subcutaneous injection (sc), placebo injection and oral moxifloxacin.
