What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
Up to 42 days post dose
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Due to an AE
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
Up to 42 days post dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the AUC0-last of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-Inf) of MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the AUC0-inf of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the Cmax of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Time to Maximum Serum Concentration (Tmax) of MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the Tmax of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Apparent Terminal Half-life (t1/2) of MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the t1/2 of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the CL/F of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Apparent Volume of Distribution during terminal phase (Vz/F) of MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the Vz/F of MK-6194.
Up to 42 days post dose
Incidence of Antidrug Antibodies (ADA) to MK-6194
Time Frame: Up to 42 days post dose
Blood samples will be collected at specified intervals to determine the ADA response to MK-6194.
