Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to learn what happens to MK-1084 levels in a person's body over time. Researchers will measure what happens to MK-1084 levels in the body when it is given to participants with hepatic (liver) impairment and healthy participants. Researchers also want to learn about the safety of MK-1084 when it is given to people with hepatic impairment and if people with hepatic impairment can tolerate it.
