Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants Who Experience a Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) as Assessed Using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0 by the Investigator
Time Frame: Up to 28 days
|
The following events, if considered drug related by the Investigator, will be considered a DLT: Grade 4 hematologic toxicity lasting ≥7 days, except anemia and thrombocytopenia; Grade 3 nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or fatigue lasting >3 days despite optimal supportive care; other nonhematologic grade ≥3 toxicities of any duration (not laboratory); Grade ≥3 nonhematologic laboratory abnormality (if certain criteria are met); febrile neutropenia Grade 3 or Grade 4; missing >25% of MK-5684 doses as a result of drug-related AE(s) during the first 28 days; Grade 5 toxicity.
The number of participants who experience a DLT will be presented.
|
Up to 28 days
|
Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
|
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in a participant, whether or not considered drug related.
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 medicinal product and does not imply any judgment about causality.
|
Up to approximately 24 months
|
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Intervention Due to an AE
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
|
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in a participant, whether or not considered drug related.
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 medicinal product and does not imply any judgment about causality.
