A Study of MK-0616 in Participants With Moderate Renal Impairment (MK-0616-007)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single dose of MK-0616 in participants with moderate renal impairment (RI) to those of healthy matched control participants. This study is being conducted to assess the impact of moderate renal insufficiency on the PK of MK-0616.

- Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/F) of MK-0616 [Pre-dose and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 5, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 120, 168, 240, and 336 hours post dose]
Blood for plasma samples will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Vz/F of MK-0616
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of Participants Experiencing an Adverse Event (AE) [Up to approximately 14 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
- Number of Participants Who Discontinue From the Study due to an AE [Up to approximately 14 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
- Amount Recovered in Urine from 0 to 24 hours (Ae0-24) of MK-0616 [Pre-dose and and at 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, 12-24, 24-36, and 36-48 hours post dose]
Urine will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Ae0-24 of MK-0616
- Fraction of Dose Recovered in Urine (Fe) of MK-0616 [Pre-dose and and at 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, 12-24, 24-36, and 36-48 hours post dose]
Urine will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the Fe of MK-0616
- Renal Clearance (CLr) of MK-0616 [Pre-dose and and at 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, 12-24, 24-36, and 36-48 hours post dose]
Urine will be collected at pre-specified time points to determine the CLr of MK-0616
