Brief summary

The goal of this study is to learn what happens to enlicitide decanoate and atorvastatin in a healthy person's body over time. Researchers want to learn what happens to enlicitide decanoate in the body when it is given with and without another medicine called atorvastatin and what happens to atorvastatin in the body when it is given with or without enlicitide decanoate.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/F) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Vz/F of enlicitide decanoate.
Apparent Terminal Half-Life (t1/2) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the t1/2 of enlicitide decanoate.
Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the CL/F of enlicitide decanoate.
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-Inf) of Atorvastatin and its MetabolitesAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-Inf of atorvastatin and its metabolites.
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Last (AUC0-Last) of Atorvastatin and its MetabolitesAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-Last of atorvastatin and its metabolites.
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Atorvastatin and its MetabolitesAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Cmax of atorvastatin and its metabolites.
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Atorvastatin and its MetabolitesAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Tmax of atorvastatin and its metabolites.

Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/F) of AtorvastatinAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Vz/F of atorvastatin.
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to 24 Hours (AUC0-24hrs) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 24 hours)Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-24hrs of enlicitide decanoate.
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-Inf) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-Inf of enlicitide decanoate.
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Last (AUC0-Last) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-Last of enlicitide decanoate.
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Cmax of enlicitide decanoate.
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 8 days)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Tmax of enlicitide decanoate.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AEUp to approximately 6 weeksAn 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.
Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)Up to approximately 10 weeksAn 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.
