Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Sequence 1: (Treatment A) → (Treatment B) → (Treatment C) → (Treatment B) → (Treatment C)

Period 1: Participants receive MK-6552 Treatment A single dose administered orally under fasted conditions (Period 1 = 4 days). Period 2: Participants receive MK-6552 Treatment B single dose administered orally under fasted conditions (Period 2 = 4 days). Period 3: Participants receive Treatment C single dose administered orally under fasted conditions (Period 3 = 4 days). Period 4: Participants receive MK-6552 Treatment B single dose administered orally under fed conditions (Period 4 = 4 days). Period 5: Participants receive MK-6552 Treatment C single dose administered orally under fed conditions (Period 5 = 4 days). There will be a minimum 3-day washout between periods.
