Interventions

MK-5823 administered subcutaneously (doses ranging from 0.35 mg to 2.8 mg) once daily for 3 weeks. Doses may be adjusted downward based on safety, tolerability, and/or pharmacokinetic data. The decision to dose escalate will be based on accrued safety/tolerability data at the prior dose level. In each arm, 6 participants will be randomized to receive study drug and 2 participants will be randomized to receive placebo.
