Exclusion Criteria: - External anal sphincter disruption related to faecal incontinence caused by trauma. - Patients with complicating gastrointestinal (GI) disease including those with inflammatory bowel diseases, patients that have received radiotherapy or surgery for anal cancer, patients with rectal prolapse, transanal surgery. - Relevant history of or presence of any significant or uncontrolled cardiovascular risk including: 1. Systolic > 160mmHg or Diastolic > 100mmHg. Patients on a stable regimen for > 3 months with controlled hypertension prior to Visit 1 - Screening Visit (Systolic < 140mmHg or Diastolic < 90mmHg) can be included. 2. Abnormal 24 hour Screening Holter: corrected QT interval (QTcf) prolongation with cut-off values of >460 ms for females and >430 ms for males, acute arrhythmia, nocturnal bradycardia with heart rate (HR) < 40bpm, atrial fibrillation, AV block Type II and III, Sick Sinus Syndrome, vasovagal syncope. 3.
