Conditions

Chronic Kidney Failure, End-Stage Renal Disease, Renal Impairment

Brief summary

The goal of this trial is to measure what happens to 1 or 2 doses of MK-2828 in a person's body over time (pharmacokinetic or PK trial). Researchers want to learn if the PK of people with certain types of kidney disease is similar to the PK of healthy people.

Inclusion criteria

The main inclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following: * Is in generally good health, with the exception of renal impairment participants. Participants with stable, chronic medical or psychiatric conditions may be included at the discretion of the investigator and the Sponsor. Severe Renal Impairment Participants: * Has an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min), but is not on hemodialysis (HD) ESRD on HD Participants: * Has ESRD maintained on stable outpatient regimen of intermittent high-flux HD at a healthcare center for \> 3 months prior to study entry The main

Exclusion criteria

include but are not limited to the following: Renal Impairment Participants: * History of any illness, other than renal impairment, that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or poses an additional risk to the participant by their participation in the study. Healthy Matched Control Participants: * History of clinically significant endocrine, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hematological, hepatic, immunological, renal, respiratory, genitourinary, or major neurological (including stroke and chronic seizures) abnormalities or diseases. Participants with a remote history of uncomplicated medical events (eg, uncomplicated kidney stones, as defined as spontaneous passage and no recurrence in the last 5 years, or childhood asthma) may be enrolled in the study at the discretion of the investigator.

Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-last) of MK-2828 in PlasmaPre dose and at designated time points up to 192 hours post doseBlood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-last of MK-2828
Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to 24 Hours Postdose (AUC0-24) of MK-2828 in PlasmaPre dose and at designated time points up to 24 hours post doseBlood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-24 of MK-2828

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)Up to approximately 14 daysAn 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. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Intervention Due to an AEUp to approximately 2 daysAn 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. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
