What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07388667). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC. Recruitment status: COMPLETED. Phase: PHASE1. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 122 participants (ACTUAL). Conditions: Healthy. Interventions: DRUG: MK-4082; DRUG: Placebo. Primary outcome measures: Number of Participants Who Experience an Adverse Event (AE) , Up to approximately 98 Days; Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AE , Up to approximately 84 Days. Brief summary: Researchers are looking for new weight loss medicines for people with higher body weight. The study medicine, MK-4082, is different from similar weight loss medicines because people take it as a pill instead of an injection. Before giving a study medicine to people with a health condition, researchers first do studies to find a safe dose level (amount) of the study medicine that can be used in future studies. The goals of this study are to learn about: * The safety of MK-4082 and if people tolerate it * What happens to different MK-4082 dose levels in a person's body over time
