A Clinical Trial of MK-1403 in Healthy Participants (MK-1403-007) (NCT07677163)

A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Relative Bioavailability of MK-1403 Formulations Administered to Healthy Adult Participants

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this trial is to learn about a trial medicine called MK-1403. Researchers designed MK-1403 to treat a type of heart and blood vessel disease called atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Before giving a trial medicine to people with a health condition, researchers first do clinical trials in healthy people. This trial will help researchers learn about the safety of MK-1403 and if participants tolerate it. Tolerate means participants receive the trial medicine and they do not need to stop taking it due to health problems. The trial will also measure what happens to MK 1403 in a healthy person's body over time.
