NCT03295266

Brief Summary

This is an open-label, single-dose, Phase 1 study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenous (IV) MK-3866 in participants with moderate and severe hepatic impairment (HI) compared to that of matched healthy participants. The primary purpose of this study is to understand the effect of HI on the plasma PK of MK-3866 in order to guide dosing recommendations for participants with HI. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-3866 in participants with moderate and severe HI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (8)

  • Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of MK-3866 From Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-∞)

    AUC0-∞ is determined for the period up to 72 hours post-single dose. AUC0-∞ is an estimate of total plasma exposure from dosing to (extrapolated) infinity.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdose

  • Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of MK-3866 From Time 0 to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-last)

    AUC0-last is determined for the period up to 72 hours post-single dose. AUC0-last is an estimate of total plasma exposure from dosing to the time of last measurable sample.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdose

  • Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of MK-3866 From Time 0 to 24 Hours (AUC0-24hr)

    AUC0-24 is determined for the period up to 24 hours post-single dose. AUC0-24 is an estimate of total daily plasma exposure from dosing to 24 hours postdose.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 24 hours postdose

  • Concentration at the End of Infusion (Ceoi) of MK-3866

    The plasma sample collected at end-of-infusion (0.5 hours postdose) was used to determine Ceoi.

    0.5 (end of infusion) hours postdose

  • Time to Maximum Concentration (Tmax) of MK-3866

    Tmax is the time at which the maximum plasma drug concentration is detected.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdose

  • Apparent Terminal Half-life (t1/2) of MK-3866

    Apparent t1/2 is the elimination half-life of MK-3866 from plasma.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdose

  • Clearance (CL) of MK-3866

    CL is the volume of plasma from which the study drug is completely removed per unit time.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdose

  • Volume of Distribution (Vz) of MK-3866

    Vz is the apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase.

    Predose, 0.5 (end of infusion), 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdose

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Fraction of Dose of MK-3866 Excreted Unchanged in Urine (Fe)

    Predose, then pooled in the following increments: 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, 12-24 hours postdose

  • Renal Clearance (CLr) of MK-3866

    Predose, then pooled in the following increments: 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, 12-24 hours postdose

  • Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event (AE)
