A Single- and Multiple-Dose Study of Enlicitide Chloride (MK-0616) in Healthy Chinese Adult Participants (MK 0616-010)

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety of enlicitide chloride and how well people tolerate it. Researchers also want to learn what happens to different amounts of enlicitide chloride in a healthy person's body over time.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE)

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 months

    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

  2. Number of Participants Who Discontinue the Study Treatment Due to an AE

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 months

    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
