Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE)Up to approximately 164 days

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of the study drug whether or not it is considered related to the study drug. The number of participants who experienced an AE is reported.

Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Due to an AEUp to approximately 164 days

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of the study drug whether or not it is considered related to the study drug. The number of participants who discontinued study due to an AE is reported.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time of the Last Measurable Plasma Concentration (Tlast) of MK-2060Predose, 1, 12, 24, 48 and 52 hours postdose; 5, 12, 15, 22, 60, 90, and up to 157 days post dose; and twice daily on Days 8, 29, 120: pre- and post-dialysis

Blood samples were collected at specified intervals for the determination of Tlast. Tlast is defined as the time to the last measurable concentration of MK-2060 reached.

Terminal Half-Life (t ½) of MK-2060Predose, 1, 12, 24, 48 and 52 hours postdose; 5, 12, 15, 22, 60, 90, and up to 157 days post dose; and twice daily on Days 8, 29, 120: pre- and post-dialysis

Blood samples were collected at specified intervals for the determination of t½. t½ is defined as the time required to divide the MK-2060 plasma concentration by two after reaching pseudo-equilibrium, following a single dose of MK-2060.

Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve of MK-2060 From Time 0 to Infinity (AUC 0-inf)Predose, 1, 12, 24, 48 and 52 hours postdose; 5, 12, 15, 22, 60, 90, and up to 157 days post dose; and twice daily on Days 8, 29, 120: pre- and post-dialysis

Blood samples were collected at specified intervals for the determination of AUC0-inf. AUC0-inf is defined as the area under the concentration-time curve of MK-2060 from time zero to infinity.
