Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to characterize the effect of renal function on the plasma, urine, and dialysate pharmacokinetic profile of MK-6183 (CB-238,618) in humans. The study will also assess the safety profile and tolerability of MK-6183 in healthy participants, participants with varying degrees of renal impairment (RI), or participants with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis (HD), based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Conditions

Healthy Volunteers; Renal Impairment

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

• Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) From Dosing to Last Measurable Concentration (AUC0-last) of MK-6183

  AUC0-last is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from the time of dosing to the last post-dose measurable concentration.
