Pharmacokinetic (PK) Characterization of Subcutaneous Tulisokibart (MK-7240-010)
- Registration Number
- NCT06575595
- Lead Sponsor
- Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
- Brief Summary
The primary objectives of the study are to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of tulisokibart (MK-7240) administered via autoinjector (AI) (Treatment A) and to characterize the PK of different concentrations of tulisokibart following SC administration of a single dose via vial/syringe (Treatments B and C). There is no formal hypothesis.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Area Under the Curve from Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-inf): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the AUC0-inf of tulisokibart. AUC0-inf is defined as the area under concentration-time curve of tulisokibart from time zero to infinity.
Clearance after Nonintravenous Administration (CL/F): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the CL/V of tulisokibart. CL/F is the rate at which the tulisokibart is completely removed from plasma.
Volume of Distribution (V/F): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the V/F of tulisokibart. V/F is the volume of distribution of tulisokibart.
Area Under the Curve from Time 0 to Last Measurable Concentration (AUC0- last): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the AUC0-last of tulisokibart. AUC0-last is defined as the area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to time of last measurable concentration of tulisokibart.
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Cmax of tulisokibart. Cmax is defined as the maximum concentration of tulisokibart reached.
Time to Cmax (Tmax): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Tmax of tulisokibart. Tmax is defined as the time to maximum concentration of tulisokibart reached.
Half Life (t1/2): Treatment A Predose and Days 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 10, 15, 29, 57, 71 and Post-study (Day 99) Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the t1/2 of tulisokibart. t1/2 is defined as the time required to divide plasma concentration of tulisokibart by half.
