Primary	Ratio of Cmax of BI 409306 in CSF Compared to Plasma	Ratio of Cmax (maximum measured concentration) of BI 409306 in Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compared to plasma is presented. Ratio was calculated as: Cmax of BI 409306 in CSF/ Cmax of BI 409306 in plasma.; Time frame: Blood: Within 2:00 hours (h):minutes (min) before dosing and 0:10, 0:20, 0:30, 0:45, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00 and 24:00 h:min after dosing.; CSF: Within 2:00 hours (h):minutes (min) before dosing and 0:00, 0:10, 0:20, 0:30, 0:45, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00 and 24:00 h:min after dosing.	Pharmacokinetic samples were collected within 2 hours before and up to up to 24 hours after BI 409306 administration (please refer the description for the time frame in detail).
Primary	Maximum Change From Baseline of cGMP in CSF Calculated as Ratio (Emax)	The maximum change from baseline of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was calculated as: exp(ln(cGMPmax) - ln(cGMP0)), where cGMP0 is the baseline cGMP value per subject (mean of the two pre-dose measurements) and cGMPmax is the maximal cGMP value per subject measured after drug intake.
