Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a single subcutaneous dose of MK-2060 in stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD4) participants. The primary hypothesis is that the true geometric mean of the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf) after a single-dose of MK-2060 in adult CKD4 participants is at least 1130 nM*hr.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants who Experience One or More Bleeding Related Adverse Events (AE) [Up to approximately 104 days]

    Bleeding related AEs will include any sign or symptom of bleeding, even if not requiring intervention by a medical/healthcare professional, as well as clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding or major bleeding.

  2. Number of Participants who Experience One or More AEs [Up to approximately 104 days]

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention.

  3. Number of Participants who Discontinue Study Due to an AE [Up to approximately 104 days]

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention.

  4. Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from 0 to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of MK-2060 [Day 1: pre-dose, 1 and 12 hours post-dose; once daily on Days 2, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the AUC0-inf of MK-2060 in plasma.

  5. Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to 168 Hours (AUC0-168) of MK-2060 [Pre-dose, 1, 12, 24, 48, 120, and 168 hours post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the AUC0-168 of MK-2060 in plasma from 0 to 168 hours.

  6. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of MK-2060 [Day 1: pre-dose, 1 and 12 hours post-dose; once daily on Days 2, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Cmax of MK-2060 in plasma.

  7. Plasma Concentration at 168 Hours (C168) of MK-2060 [168 hours post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at 168 hours post-dose to determine the C168 of MK-2060 in plasma.

  8. Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of MK-2060 [Day 1: pre-dose, 1 and 12 hours post-dose; once daily on Days 2, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Tmax of MK-2060 in plasma.

  9. Terminal Half Life (t1/2) of MK-2060 [Day 1: pre-dose, 1 and 12 hours post-dose; once daily on Days 2, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the terminal t1/2 of MK-2060 in plasma.

  10. Apparent Total Clearance (CL/F) of MK-2060 [Day 1: pre-dose, 1 and 12 hours post-dose; once daily on Days 2, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the CL/F of MK-2060 in plasma.

  11. Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/F) of MK-2060 [Day 1: pre-dose, 1 and 12 hours post-dose; once daily on Days 2, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Cmax of MK-2060 in plasma

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percent Change from Baseline in Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) of MK-2060 [Baseline and 90 days post-dose]

    Blood will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the aPTT of MK-2060 in plasma.
