Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Percent of Dose Recovered in Urine and Feces Following a Single Oral Dose of [^14C]MK-0941 (160 µCi).Up to 168 hours after study drug administration

Urine was collected at predose, 0 to 4, 4 to 8, 8 to 12, and 12 to 24 hr postdose, and at 24 hr intervals through subject discharge. Feces were collected at pre-dose and at 24 hr intervals through subject discharge. Subjects were discharged when the total recovery in urine and feces ≥90% of the administered dose or the recovery in urine and feces for two consecutive 24-hr intervals was ≤ 1%.

Secondary Outcome Measures
