Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Macitentan

Experimental: Macitentan - Participants who have completed a parent study, benefit from their study intervention maintenance and have no adequate alternative local treatment option will be enrolled in this study and will continue to receive study drug macitentan orally during the course of the study. For adult participants study visits will be scheduled every 6 months and for pediatric participants study visits will be scheduled every 3 months. The study includes on-site visits to collect efficacy and safety information until participant discontinuation/withdrawal, or the respective study intervention is made commercially available in the country/territory or an equivalent approved therapy becomes available, or the sponsor decides to terminate the study prematurely.

Experimental: Selexipag - Participants who have completed a parent study, benefit from their study intervention maintenance and have no adequate alternative local treatment option will be enrolled in this study and will continue to receive study drug selexipag orally during the course of the study. Study visits are scheduled every 6 months to collect efficacy and safety information until participant discontinuation/withdrawal, or the respective study intervention is made commercially available in the country/territory or an equivalent approved therapy becomes available, or the sponsor decides to terminate the study prematurely.

Experimental: Macitentan/Tadalafil FDC - Participants who have completed a parent study, benefit from their study intervention maintenance and have no adequate alternative local treatment option will be enrolled in this study and will continue to receive drug Macitentan and Tadalafil fixed dose combination (FDC) orally during the course of the study. Study visits are scheduled every 6 months to collect efficacy and safety information until participant discontinuation/withdrawal, or the respective study intervention is made commercially available in the country/territory or an equivalent approved therapy becomes available, or the sponsor decides to terminate the study prematurely.


Treatment: Drugs: Macitentan
Adult participants will receive oral dose of macitentan 10 milligrams (mg) tablet once daily. Children greater than or equal to (\>=) 2 year to less than (\<) 18 years will be given an oral macitentan dose tailored to their body weight, ensuring an equivalent level of systemic exposure as in adults.

* Planned or current treatment with another investigational treatment

Macitentan-specific:

* Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to macitentan or its excipients

* Known and documented severe hepatic impairment that is, Child-Pugh Class C. For participants with hepatic impairment, Child-Pugh Class (Child-Pugh score) should be fully assessed and documented in the source documents at screening

Macitentan/tadalafil FDC-specific:

* Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to macitentan or tadalafil or their excipients
* Hemoglobin <80 g/L
* Serum aspartate (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferases (ALT) >3* ULN range
* Known and documented severe hepatic impairment that is, Child-Pugh Class C. For participants with hepatic impairment, Child-Pugh Class should be fully assessed and documented in the source documents at screening
