A Study of MK-2060 in Healthy Participants (MK-2060-016)

May 16, 2025 updated by: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

A Single Dose Study to Assess the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Intravenous Infusion and Intravenous Bolus Administration of MK-2060 in Healthy Participants

The goal of the study is to learn about the safety of MK-2060 and if people tolerate it when MK-2060 is given in different forms.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With An Adverse Event (AE)
Time Frame: Up to 134 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. The number of participants that experience an AE will be reported.
Up to 134 days
Number of Participants Discontinuing the Study Due to an AE
Time Frame: Up to 134 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. The number of participants that discontinue the study due to an AE will be reported.
Up to 134 days
