A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Food on Nemtabrutinib (MK-1026) in Healthy Participants (MK-1026-017)

January 9, 2025 updated by: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of the Nemtabrutinib Final Market Formulation 2 (FMF2) in Healthy Participants

The goal of the study is to learn what happens to levels of nemtabrutinib in a healthy person's body over time. Researchers will compare what happens to nemtabrutinib in the body when it is given under fasted (on an empty stomach) and fed (after a high-fat meal) conditions.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-inf) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-inf of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time Taken for the Drug to Appear in the Systemic Circulation Following Administration (Tlag) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)

Apparent Terminal Elimination Half-Life (t1/2) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the t1/2 of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Apparent Total Plasma Clearance (CL/F) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the CL/F of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Apparent Volume of Distribution During Terminal Elimination Phase (Vz/F) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the Vz/F of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-last) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-last of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the Cmax of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Time of the Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax) of Nemtabrutinib
Time Frame: Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Blood samples will be collected to determine the Tmax of nemtabrutinib in plasma.
Predose and at designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)
Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)
Time Frame: Up to 30 days
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of the study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Up to 30 days
Number of Participants Who Discontinue the Study Intervention Due to an AE
Time Frame: Up to 14 days
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of the study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Up to 14 days
