Study summary

Researchers designed a trial medicine called MK-7262 to lower levels of Lp(a) in the blood. Researchers want to learn about giving MK-7262 with another trial medicine called enlicitide (also known as MK-0616 or enlicitide decanoate). Enlicitide is in a group of medicines that lower the amount of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).

The goals of this trial are to evaluate:

* if MK-7262 and enlicitide taken together work better than placebo at lowering Lp(a) and LDL-C levels in the blood
* if MK-7262 alone works better than placebo at lowering Lp(a) levels in the blood
* the safety and tolerability of taking MK-7262 and enlicitide alone and together

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Percent Change from Baseline in Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) at Week 8 — Baseline and Week 8
    Blood samples will be collected at baseline and at Week 8 to assess the mean percent change from baseline in Lp(a).
  • Percent Change from Baseline in Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) at Week 8 — Baseline and Week 8
    Blood samples will be collected at baseline and at Week 8 to assess the mean percent change in LDL-C.
  • Number of Participants who Experience One or More Adverse Events (AEs) — Up to approximately 20 Weeks
    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. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
  • Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Intervention Due to an AE — Up to approximately 12 Weeks
    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. The number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an AE will be reported.
